About this role

Lavendo partners with startups and high‑growth companies to help them hire top‑tier sales, GTM, and technical talent. This role is with one of our clients; we’ll share full details about the company and interview process as we get to know you and confirm mutual fit. ABOUT THE COMPANY Our client helps some of the world’s largest brands control how they collect, share, and use data. Its enterprise platform connects privacy governance, consent management, and AI governance, giving organizations the controls they need to protect customer information and adopt AI responsibly.

Customers include Hilton, Sephora, AT&T, Allianz, and CVS, with many relationships spanning more than five years. Recognized as a Leader in the Magic Quadrant, our client pairs product innovation with established enterprise adoption. The company is profitable and founder-led. Its Founder/CEO also serves as CTO: he built the original technology and personally secured major enterprise customers in the company’s first few months.

You will work directly with a founder who understands the product, the buyer, and what it takes to win complex accounts. THE MISSION Give enterprises the ability to innovate with data and AI while respecting individual privacy and choice. Our client turns that mission into practical controls: connecting customer permissions, privacy obligations, and AI governance to how data moves through the business. THE OPPORTUNITY Lead an existing enterprise sales team and help turn a strong customer and product foundation into the next stage of revenue growth.

As Head of Sales, you will manage approximately 2-3 AEs and 5-6 BDRs. You will own team execution, coach sellers, strengthen pipeline generation, and personally contribute to closing business. This role suits a leader who wants broader responsibility without losing touch with customers. You will work directly with the Founder/CEO on sales strategy and execution, with meaningful influence over hiring, team development, and how the business goes to market.

WHAT YOU'LL DO - Lead the enterprise sales team against clear revenue, pipeline, and activity goals. - Coach AEs and BDRs through account planning, prospecting, discovery, deal reviews, and negotiations. - Generate and close your own opportunities while helping the team win strategic accounts. - Build a consistent outbound motion with clear targeting, relevant messaging, and disciplined follow-through. - Develop relationships with CISOs, CIOs, Chief Privacy Officers, compliance leaders, and other enterprise decision-makers.
