$640,000+ in new ARR within 12 months post-ramp
Maintain 25–35% win rate on qualified opportunities

Ensure 95%+ successful implementations with clean handoff and no expectation gaps
Generate measurable pipeline from 4–8 national conferences annually

You will:
Qualify inbound and SDR-sourced leads
Run structured discovery conversations
Build ROI-driven business cases
Lead tailored demos and executive presentations
Navigate HR, Benefits, Finance, and executive stakeholders
Own pricing and procurement discussions
Close new employer partnerships
Stay engaged through implementation to ensure successful launch
You are accountable for the deal from qualification through go-live.

Sales Environment
Multi-stakeholder B2B sale
Buyers: HR, Benefits, Finance, Executive leadership
Consultative, workforce-impact positioning
CRM: HubSpot
Travel required for 4–8 conferences per year across the U.S. As well as quarterly in-person strategy sessions at our Philadelphia headquarters.
You will be expected to convert conference presence into pipeline.

2. Pipeline Discipline You maintain 3x+ pipeline coverage and forecast accurately. No end-of-quarter surprises.

5. Objection Mastery You surface real objections early and handle pricing conversations directly.
6. Implementation Ownership You stay engaged through onboarding to ensure what was sold aligns with what is delivered.

Cultural Fit You align with PeopleJoy's core values:
Do Right by Others
Improve Every Time
Be All-In — and Be Honest
