Manager, Account Executives

ABOUT LEAP
Built for Contractors Who Move Fast
Leap is the complete platform for residential home improvement contractors—roofers, remodelers, and the specialty trades that keep homes running. Our SMB sales team brings Leap to contractors who run lean and move fast. That team needs a leader who does the same.
THE OPPORTUNITY
Lead the Team That Wins on Speed
You'll lead about 10 Account Executives in a high-velocity motion: deals around $400, short sales cycles, and a number that's won through volume, speed, and discipline. You'll set the standard, run pipeline every day, and coach in tight loops so reps get better every week. Working directly with the VP of Sales, you'll hire, ramp, and scale the team against aggressive growth targets.
RESPONSIBILITIES
Your Team, Your Number, Your Standard
Team performance. Drive consistent individual and team quota attainment across a team of about 10 AEs.
The activity standard. Set daily and weekly targets for dials, conversations, demos, and closes, then hold the line.
Daily pipeline. Run stand-ups and pipeline reviews that catch slippage the same day, not at month-end.
Fast coaching cycles. Call and demo reviews, live shadowing, and weekly 1:1s with clear, measurable next steps.
The forecast. Own stage conversion, deal velocity, and an accurate forecast for the VP of Sales.
Hiring and ramp. Recruit, onboard, and ramp AEs with a repeatable path to full productivity.
Accountability and growth. Address underperformance early and directly. Build development paths to Senior AE for your top performers.
Cross-team partnership. Work with the Manager, BDR on clean pipeline handoff, and with Marketing and RevOps on lead flow, routing, and reporting.
Everything else. Performs other duties as assigned.
This role leads the SMB Account Executive team. Our Enterprise AE team has its own dedicated leadership.
