Our agents operate for hours at a time, performing end-to-end work for some of the largest accounting firms in the world. \nWe recently raised $100M at >$1B valuation and are racing to deploy the most advanced applied ML at production scale.\nOur investors include: Khosla Ventures (Keith Rabois & Vinod Khosla), Accel (Miles Clements), Google Ventures, Nat Friedman & Daniel Gross, Adam D'Angelo, Jeff Dean, Jack Altman, Noam Brown, Kyle Vogt, Amjad Masad, Clem Delangue and many other operators/technical leaders.\n\"Basis is on the frontier of building production-grade, long-horizon agents. They've pushed the limits of what we thought our models could do on real-world, economically valuable, complex accounting tasks. They've been a great collaborator in helping us shape what the future of agents looks like.\" - Prashant Mital, Applied AI Lead, OpenAI\nWhat you’ll be doing:\nAs a second-line Sales Leader, you will report directly to the Head of GTM and work closely with the CEO and founders to build and scale the entire sales organization at Basis- from the ground up.\nEarly on, that means rolling up your sleeves to hire ICs, build the sales process, and close deals alongside the team. As we scale, you’ll layer in frontline managers, design org structure, and shift your focus to leading leaders. This is a role for someone who can build from zero to one and then scale from one to many.\nBuild the team from scratch: Hire and develop Account Executives and SDRs directly, then recruit and develop frontline sales managers as the org grows. Design team structure, headcount plans, and career paths across segments.\nOwn the sales process: Build the outbound and inbound sales motion from the ground up- discovery through close-and codify it into a repeatable, scalable playbook that the team can execute consistently.\nSet sales strategy: Define segmentation, territory strategy, and go-to-market approach. Partner with the Head of GTM, Marketing, RevOps, and Customer Success to build a coordinated commercial engine.\nDrive revenue performance: Own overall sales targets and provide visibility into pipeline, forecasting accuracy, and quota attainment. Adjust strategy in real-time as the market evolves.\nScale through leaders: As the org matures, invest in making your managers great running effective coaching cadences, pipeline reviews, and team development so the org scales beyond your direct involvement.\nLocation: NYC, Flatiron office. In-person team.\nWhat you’ll bring:\n8-15+ years of experience in high-growth B2B SaaS sales, with progressive leadership experience including managing frontline sales managers\n\nTrack record of building a sales org from early stage-hiring ICs, building process, and scaling through managers\n\nExperience designing and implementing sales strategy across multiple teams or segments (territory planning, segmentation, capacity modeling)\n\nStrong knowledge of the accounting industry, fintech, or complex professional services workflows\n\nProven ability to build repeatable, scalable sales processes while maintaining high team performance and culture\n\nWhat we’d love to see:\nExperience with modern sales stacks (Salesforce/HubSpot, Apollo, Gong, etc.) and implementing data-driven coaching across managers\n\nBackground in accounting or professional services-you understand the pain points of the people we serve\n\nPrior experience at a startup during the Seed to Series B transition, where you had to build the plane while flying it\n\nWhat Success looks like in this role\nBuilder mentality: You’re energized by building from scratch-hiring the first reps, closing the first deals, writing the first playbook-and equally excited to hand it off to managers you’ve developed\n\nProcess-oriented: Skilled at building consistent, repeatable sales execution across multiple teams and holding managers accountable to it\n\nStrategic thinker: Can zoom out on market opportunity, org design, and GTM approach while staying close enough to execution to course-correct fast\n\nCompany-builder: Eager to lay groundwork both commercially and culturally as we rapidly scale the sales organization\n\nAll-in: Driven to seize a massive opportunity, accelerate growth, and commit deeply to Basis’s success\n\nBenefits at Basis\nWe offer a competitive and thoughtful benefits package designed to support your physical, mental, and financial well-being:\nHealth & Wellness: Premium Medical, Dental, and Vision coverage; Life Insurance; and 6 coaching & 6 therapy sessions through Spring Health.\nBasis will cover 100% of your Wellhub Gold membership.\n\nWellhub gives you access to gyms like Lifetime, SoulCycle, NYSC and so many more - as well as access to wellness apps like Strava & Headspace!\n\nTime off: Unlimited PTO + 12 paid company holidays.\n\nIn-Office Perks: Daily meal stipends, a fully stocked kitchen, and $300 toward your custom desk setup.\n\nFinancial Benefits: Pre-tax commuter benefits and 401(k) retirement plan\n\nTeam Culture: Monthly office activities and frequent optional team happy hours.\n\nParental Leave","description_format":"text","description_chars":5104,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":8,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":["Life insurance","Parental leave","Retirement plans","Unlimited PTO"],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["AI Agents","Financial AI","Accounting & Tax Software"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-09-05T09:50:18Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":18,"band":"cold","label":"Long shot","p_open":1,"p_active":0.639,"p_room":0.28,"age_days":238,"expected_fill_days":109,"reasons":["conf:2","win:tail","crowd:"],"computed_at":"2026-10-20T05:45:00Z"},"pay":{"stated_usd_annual":500000,"is_top_pay":true},"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/getbasis-sales-leader","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/getbasis-sales-leader.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-20T15:35:24Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":17613,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-10-21T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":33504},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=33504"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fgetbasis-sales-leader"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fgetbasis-sales-leader"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fgetbasis-sales-leader"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/getbasis-sales-leader\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fgetbasis-sales-leader"}]}
