Head of Sales Management & Performance

Janea Systems is a world-class software engineering consultancy trusted by Fortune 500s and high-growth tech companies to solve their most complex technical challenges - from AI and kernel-level systems to large-scale cloud platforms.

We’re on a mission to scale from $10M to $50M+ in revenue over the next five years, and building a high-performing sales team is critical to that vision.  Because our solutions are deeply technical and often high-stakes, our sales process demands credibility, precision, and the ability to influence senior stakeholders.

We are hiring a senior sales leader to build and run the day-to-day management of our high-caliber enterprise sales team. Working under the direction of our Chief Business Officer, this role is ideal for someone who has successfully managed experienced enterprise sellers and thrives in a high-autonomy, builder environment. You will be responsible for hiring, onboarding, coaching, and managing a team of senior sellers. You’ll also lead the development and adoption of our sales enablement system, establish sales operating cadences, and partner closely with our consulting and executive teams to unlock account expansion and sales efficiency. Primary accountability is new revenue creation through the sales team; all enablement and process work exists in service of that goal.

• Partner with consulting team leads to identify opportunities and strengthen their commercial capabilities

• Sales meetings are structured, focused, and data-driven
• Reps clearly understand expectations, receive actionable feedback, and perform consistently under your leadership
• Sales team contribution to total revenue increases meaningfully year over year

Why This Role Is Unique:

• You’ll be the #2 to a high-performing CBO, with room to influence process and strategy
