At Gong, you will join a company built on innovative products, ambitious goals, and passionate people.

Here, transparency and trust are core to how we operate, and every person has the opportunity to make a visible impact. If you want to grow, stretch, and do work that truly matters, Gong is the place to do the best work of your career.

We are looking for an enterprise seller who is ready to take their game to the next level. You have proven you can close enterprise deals and navigate complex buying processes. You build relationships at the executive level, create pipeline through your own initiative, and show up to every conversation with a clear point of view. You are competitive, curious, and disciplined — and you are looking for a platform where your best work will be recognized and rewarded.

Responsibilities
  • Own a greenfield territory of enterprise accounts (1,000–4,000 employees), driving net new logo acquisition from prospecting through close
  • Build and manage a self-sourced pipeline — your outbound instincts and creative prospecting will drive the majority of your opportunities
  • Navigate multi-stakeholder sales cycles involving senior leaders across Revenue, Operations, and Technology functions
  • Clearly articulate Gong's value proposition at every level of the organization — from end users to the C-suite — generating genuine excitement for what is possible
  • Develop account strategies that identify the right stakeholders, uncover buying processes, and position Gong as a long-term platform partner
  • Land new accounts and expand them — understanding that a strong initial close sets the foundation for a growing book of business
  • Continuously iterate and refine your outbound messaging, prospecting approach, and discovery process — you treat selling as a craft
  • Partner with SDR, Sales Engineering, and Customer Success teams to deliver a coordinated, high-quality experience for every prospect
Qualifications
  • 5+ years of closing experience with 2+ years selling into enterprise organizations (1,000+ employees)
  • Demonstrated track record of exceeding revenue targets with experience closing six-figure deals ($250K+) in complex, multi-stakeholder sales cycles
  • A proven ability to build pipeline through your own initiative — you do not wait for leads to come to you
  • Experience competing and winning against established alternatives — you are comfortable being the challenger in a conversation and know how to win on the strength of your ideas
  • Familiarity with land and expand selling motions — you think about accounts as long-term relationships, not one-time transactions
  • Experience with MEDDPICC or a structured value-based selling methodology
  • Consistent role tenure with a clear career trajectory — you have built depth in each role before moving on
  • SaaS or platform selling experience, ideally into Revenue, Operations, or Technology functions
  • Exceptional written and verbal communication skills
  • Experience with Gong.io is preferred but not required
