  • Paypal, Visa, Tinder, and many others — rely on Sinch’s Customer Communications Cloud to power engaging
  • customer experiences through mobile messaging, voice, and email.
  • Whether you need to verify users or craft omnichannel campaigns, Sinch makes it easy. Our AI-infused Super
  • Network, APIs, and applications ensure you can connect with your customers reliably and securely, at every step of
  • their journey.
  • At Sinch we “Dream Big”, “Win Together”, “Keep it simple”, and “Make it Happen”. These values are our
  • foundation!

DESCRIPTION

  • Sinch has a significant and time-sensitive opportunity in the North American enterprise voice market.
  • Industry disruption and changes in the competitive landscape have created a window for Sinch to capture
  • substantial new business and establish deeper strategic relationships with some of the largest communications
  • customers in the market. We believe the next two years represent an unusually important opportunity to
  • accelerate our position in Voice.
  • We are looking for a Senior Director who can turn that opportunity into results.
  • This is a builder role. You will quickly develop a deep understanding of the market, our capabilities, our customers
  • and the competitive opportunity. From there, you will build the strategy, determine the coverage model, build and
  • develop the team, create pipeline, and lead execution.
  • You will report directly to the SVP of Sales, North America and operate alongside four peer sales leaders as part of
  • the North American sales leadership team.
  • Success will require both strategy and urgency. We need a leader who can see the opportunity, build the plan and
  • then get personally involved in making it happen.

What You Will Own

  • Build the Voice growth strategy. Develop a clear two-year plan to capitalize on the current market opportunity,
  • including priority customer segments, competitive targets, account strategies, coverage, capacity and investment
  • requirements.
  • Build the organization to execute it. Assess the resources required, recruit and develop the right talent, establish
  • clear roles and coverage, and create an operating model capable of scaling quickly.
  • Create and convert pipeline. Establish an aggressive, disciplined prospecting and account-development motion
  • focused on the highest-value opportunities. Maintain rigorous qualification, pipeline inspection and opportunity
  • progression.
  • Lead from the front. Personally engage in our largest and most strategic opportunities. Build relationships with
  • senior customer executives, influence deal strategy, remove obstacles and help teams win complex competitive
  • pursuits.
  • Run the business. Own the forecast, pipeline, sales performance and operating cadence for Voice. Know the
  • business at the customer and opportunity level and act quickly when performance is off plan.
  • Drive competitive displacement. Develop repeatable plays that translate market disruption into customer
  • conversations, qualified opportunities and wins. Work closely with Marketing, Product, Solutions Engineering and
  • other teams to sharpen our positioning and accelerate execution.
  • Build strategic customer relationships. Position Sinch as a long-term communications partner rather than simply
  • an alternative supplier. Understand customers' infrastructure, resiliency, economics and growth priorities and
  • connect them to Sinch's capabilities.
  • Create organizational momentum. Operate effectively across Product, Marketing, Finance, Customer Success,
  • Solutions Engineering and Operations to get decisions made, remove friction and move opportunities forward.

What We Are Looking For

  • You are an experienced enterprise sales leader, but more importantly, you are a builder.
  • You have demonstrated that you can enter a market or business with significant untapped opportunity, quickly
  • understand what needs to happen, develop a credible plan, build the team and execute.

You bring

  • Significant enterprise sales leadership experience in Voice, telecommunications, CPaaS or closely related

infrastructure markets.

  • Deep knowledge of the enterprise Voice ecosystem, competitive landscape and customer buying

environment.

  • A track record of building or transforming sales teams and delivering substantial growth.
  • Experience winning complex competitive displacement opportunities.
  • Strong executive relationships and the credibility to engage senior leaders at large enterprise and

communications customers.

  • The ability to move comfortably between strategy, recruiting, pipeline creation, account planning, deal

execution and forecasting.

  • Strong commercial judgment and an understanding of the economics of large-scale communications

businesses.

  • A disciplined approach to qualification, forecasting, account planning and opportunity management.
  • The ability to create urgency and accountability without sacrificing collaboration.
  • A bias toward action and the ability to operate successfully in a complex global organization.

What Success Looks Like

  • The first priority is speed.
  • Within your first months, you will understand the market opportunity, identify where Sinch can win, establish the
  • strategy and coverage model, assess the existing organization and begin building the team required to execute.
  • From there, success means turning the strategy into measurable pipeline and wins.
  • You will create a focused portfolio of high-value competitive opportunities, establish executive relationships with
  • priority customers, build a predictable pipeline and create a sales organization capable of converting the market
  • opportunity into sustained growth.
  • This is not a role where success is measured by producing a strategy. It is measured by executing one.
  • The opportunity is significant. The window is finite. We are looking for a leader who wants to build something and
  • make the most of it.

OUR HIRING PROCESS

  • We are committed to ensuring a recruitment process that is fair, objective, consistent, and inclusive. Our approach
  • includes structured, competency-based interviews designed to evaluate your skills, experience, and qualifications
  • relevant to the role. At times, we may include a data-driven assessment to enhance our hiring success and identify
  • candidates likely to excel.
  • We believe in a two-way process and encourage you to ask questions throughout the journey. If this role isn't
