Hey, I'm Brian - Senior Director of Sales here at Dwolla. I'm looking for someone who has a blend of strong communication skills, high-value sales experience in the payments/insurance industry and an insatiable sense of curiosity to expand our enterprise sales team.

Here is what you can expect to work on in this critical role:

The primary focus of the Director of Enterprise Business Development is to target, cultivate and manage sales prospects in the insurance software and insurtech space. This role will be responsible for the full sales process from first contact to close and will be accountable for driving sales success through attainment of MRR and AR sales targets, as well as increasing our target client size through Mid-market / Enterprise sales wins.

This position is perfect for someone who thrives in the 'hunter' role and enjoys end-to-end process ownership (from opportunity creation through agreement execution to relationship management).

I'm looking for someone who is a team player, builds rapport with others quickly and is motivated by reaching exceeding 7-figure sales goals. Our results-focused team values action, a positive attitude and self-reliance. Plus we really like celebrating each other's wins
