Why Weave Exists At Weave, our mission is to evolve how therapeutic knowledge is captured, transformed, and communicated throughout drug development. We do this by equipping human experts with AI instruments to enable drugs to be brought to patients as rapidly, safely, and inexpensively as possible. The Weave Platform streamlines regulatory workflows from start to finish by intelligently, creatively, and effectively infusing every step with AI. Together with our customers, Weave is designing and building the AI workbench for the entire therapeutic lifecycle. The Role & Your Mission We are seeking a Director of Sales, reporting to our Vice President of Sales. In this role, you will lead and develop a team of mid-market Account Executives, each owning a regional territory of mid-market Biotechnology, Pharmaceutical, and CRO accounts. Your mission is to lead a world-class sales team: one defined by inspiration, insightful coaching, rigorous deal discipline using MEDDIC, internal collaboration and a deep understanding of how life sciences companies buy and adopt transformative technology. You will partner closely with Marketing, Product, and Customer Success to sharpen our go-to-market motion, and ensure our Account Executives are equipped to run a consistent, high-quality sales motion. As a commercial leader, you will also play a key role in scaling the team including sourcing, interviewing, and developing the next generation of sales talent at Weave. Travel is expected 60-70% of the time within the territory meeting customers with Account Executives. What You’ll Own Manager Development & Team Building Lead, coach, and grow a team of 4-6 mid-market Account Executives, providing hands-on guidance on running a rigorous sales process, developing the AE’s current capabilities, and building a strong pipeline within Biotech, Pharma, and CRO verticals. Own the lifecycle for recruiting, hiring and developing the sales team: design a differentiated interview process that surfaces coachability, sales acumen, and life sciences fluency, then onboard and ramp new hires with speed and intention. Grow the team thoughtfully as Weave scales — anticipate capacity needs, build a strong candidate pipeline, and maintain a high bar for talent. Deal Excellence & Sales Process Instill and reinforce a MEDDIC-based selling framework across all AE’s; conduct structured deal reviews that interrogate qualification, stakeholder mapping, and path to close with rigor and consistency. Own forecast accuracy and pipeline health across the mid-market segment; leverage CRM data and deal inspection to surface risks early and drive corrective actions. Engage as an executive sponsor on strategic deals, modeling best-in-class discovery, objection handling, and value-based selling for managers and their teams. Strategy & Cross-Functional Leadership Define and continuously sharpen the Ideal Customer Profile for mid-market; partner with Marketing and Product to align ICP-driven campaigns, messaging, and product roadmap priorities with real-world buyer behavior. Contribute to territory design, quota setting, and compensation planning; serve as a key voice in cross-functional leadership discussions. Collaborate with Customer Success and Product to close the loop between customer input and platform development, ensuring Weave remains tightly aligned with evolving customer needs across the life sciences ecosystem. What You’ll Bring Leadership & Coaching A distinctive, intentional approach to interviewing and developing sales talent — you have a proven method for identifying A-players and a track record of growing them into top performers. Deep coaching instincts: you know how to get inside a deal, ask the right questions, and help Account Executives navigate difficult situations — without taking over. A customer-obsessed, high-accountability leadership style that thrives in fast-moving environments and sets a clear cultural standard for the teams you lead. Experience & Qualifications 10+ years of overall sales experience in B2B SaaS, with at least 5 years in sales management roles of increasing scope and responsibility. Experience leading top performing Account Executives preferred; you understand the leverage — and the discipline — required to lead through others effectively. Background selling SaaS software into the Life Sciences vertical is required — you bring genuine fluency in how Biotechnology, Pharmaceutical, and CRO organizations evaluate, buy, and implement technology. Deep expertise in MEDDIC sales methodology; you have implemented it at scale, not just as a checkbox, and use it as an active coaching and inspection tool. Strong ICP acumen: you know how to define, pressure-test, and operationalize an Ideal Customer Profile across a sales organization to drive more efficient pipeline generation and higher win rates. Demonstrated track record of consistent quota attainment and team-level success, with the data and stories to back it up. What We Offer 🎯 The opportunity to work at a modern, cutting-edge life sciences technology company devoted to meaningful positive impact on human life. Collaboration, velocity, and customer obsession are our baseline; demonstration of craftsmanship and ROI are celebrated. 🏆 Competitive salary ($160,000 - $190,000) and commission structure with performance-based incentives (OTE $320,000 - $380,000) plus equity. 🧬 Comprehensive health, dental, and vision insurance. 🏝️ Take care of you and yours: generous PTO, parental leave, OneMedical, TalkSpace, Teladoc. 🚀 Career development opportunities within a company entering a growth phase. 🌎 Hybrid in San Francisco with in-office days Tues/Wed/Thurs and flexibility to work remote Mon/Fri. Equal Opportunity Employer: We are committed to creating a diverse environment and are proud to be an equal opportunity employer. All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, gender, gender identity or expression, sexual orientation, national origin, genetics, disability, age, or veteran status.

74,689 Sales Jobs Open Right Now — Where to Look

Most are in India and the US. Here's how to pick the right one for you.

74.689Jobs
17.483IN

WorkMundi's database shows 74,689 open sales positions globally. India leads with 17,483 jobs, followed by the US with 13,876. If you're open to geography, you have real options — but the sheer number means you need a filter. Don't apply to everything. Pick a country, a company size, and a sales model that matches what you actually want to do.

Almost 8 in 10 of these ads have their text written in English. That's useful for reading the job description and understanding what you're signing up for. But it tells you nothing about whether the role requires you to speak English with customers, partners, or your team. Ask the hiring manager directly during your first conversation.

The employers posting the most are boxlunch, SIMPLE RECRUIT, FlexBoard, and tmobile. If you see their name on a listing, you know they're actively hiring. That can work in your favor — high-volume recruiters often move faster. But volume also means competition. Your application needs to stand out.

Sales interviews almost always include a version of this: 'Tell me about a time you lost a deal. What did you learn?' Prepare a real story where you take ownership of what went wrong and what you'd do differently. Hiring managers want to see you learn, not just win.
