Head of Enterprise Sales

Description

COMPANY BACKGROUND

Impact Genome (IG) is a fast-growing SaaS company on a mission to change how the world measures social change. We verify the real-world impact of government programs, NGOs, and nonprofits, helping them prove what works and why.

At the center of our work is the Impact Genome Registry, the first-ever database with outcomes and cost benchmarks for social programs. Federal, state, and local agencies, as well as Fortune 500 companies, use it to track results, uncover "what works," and invest where their dollars will have the greatest impact.

We are fortunate to work with world-leading organizations including the U.S. Government, Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, Bank of America, RBC, Moody's, Dell, and others.

Our mission: help the world shift from "giving money away" to investing in projects that create the maximum possible social good.

ROLE OVERVIEW

Every year, Fortune 500 companies invest significant resources in social impact. Yet many can report how much they spent without clearly understanding what those investments achieved or where future funding will create the greatest impact.

Picture the head of social impact at a Fortune 500 company walking into the boardroom and saying: here is what our dollars produced, what it cost per outcome, and where we're moving money next year because it works better. That's the conversation we make possible.

Impact Genome helps organizations make those decisions with evidence. We are looking for a Head of Enterprise Sales who can bring Impact Genome to more Fortune 500 companies and build lasting relationships with the teams responsible for their social impact investments.

You will own the enterprise sales process, from identifying target accounts and opening conversations through discovery, proposals, negotiation, and close. You will need to understand how each prospect makes funding decisions, demonstrate where Impact Genome fits, and navigate the complexity of Fortune 500 buying processes.

This is a hands-on role. We need someone who can build a pipeline, run deals personally, learn from buyer feedback, and help refine our go-to-market approach. As our dedicated enterprise sales leader, you will work closely with the CEO and impact science team to turn early traction into a repeatable enterprise sales motion.

This job is getting Impact Genome into the boardroom.
