Senior Director, Local Revenue Strategy & Enablement
Nashville Public Radio, Washington, District of Columbia, us, 20022
Overview
1 big thing : Axios is a media company dedicated to providing trustworthy, award-winning news in an audience-first format. As our revenue organization scales, we are evolving how enablement shows up - from training programs to systems that drive consistent performance, clarity, and growth.
We are looking for a
Senior Director of Revenue Enablement
to help shape how revenue leaders lead, how teams operate, and how we sustainably grow our local revenue engine.
Why it matters : In a period of rapid growth and increasing complexity, enablement must do more than support local client partners; it must
scale judgment, reduce friction, and reinforce how work gets done
across the revenue org.
As Senior Director of Local Revenue Enablement, you will play a critical role in equipping managers to coach more effectively, embedding consistent sales behaviors (including challenger selling), professionalizing top-of-funnel pipeline generation, and clarifying cross-functional workflows that accelerate execution.
This role reports to the VP of Revenue Strategy & Enablement and works closely with the Head of Local Sales and Revenue Leadership - serving as a lynchpin between strategy and day-to-day execution.
Go deeper : In this strategic role, you will make an impact across Axios’s revenue organization through the following responsibilities:
Responsibilities
Build and own
manager-first enablement systems
that drive consistent performance across revenue teams
Partner with the
Head of Local Sales
to upskill Local Client Partners on a challenger sales model and reinforce insight-led selling behaviors
Own
onboarding and ramp frameworks
that accelerate confidence and speed-to-impact for new hires
Lead
team-wide enablement moments
(kickoffs, Half Business Reviews, monthly rhythms) that reinforce priorities and standards
Own and manage the
Business Development (BDA) function , including pipeline strategy, capacity, coaching, and development; ensuring top-of-funnel efforts align with revenue priorities
Design and maintain
cross-functional revenue playbooks and workflows
that clarify ownership and handoffs across Client Partnerships, Events/Live, Studio, Client Success, and Revenue Operations
Embed AI into revenue workflows
by identifying high-leverage use cases and driving adoption through managers to improve seller effectiveness and decision-making
Partner cross-functionally with Revenue Operations, Business Operations, Brand Strategy, Marketing, and Client Success to ensure enablement aligns with how Axios goes to market
Worthy of your time : Ideal candidates will have a minimum of 10+ years of experience, bring a mix of leadership presence, systems thinking, and deep care for people, and will embody Axios’s mission and values. You are someone who has:
Qualifications
Deep experience in sales enablement, sales leadership, or revenue operations within a complex B2B environment
A strong point of view on how managers drive performance and how behavior change actually happens at scale
Experience building onboarding, coaching, and enablement systems — not just one-off programs
Comfort owning both people leadership (including BDAs) and operating systems
Strong executive presence and the ability to partner with senior revenue leaders
A track record of simplifying complexity and improving how teams work together
Familiarity with CRM and sales tools (e.g., Salesforce, Boostr, HubSpot)
High emotional intelligence and a deep commitment to inclusive, people-first leadership
Starting salary for this role is in the range of $120,000 - $144,000 and is dependent on numerous factors, including but not limited to location, work experience, and skills.
