Description

Ready to take your career to the next level?

Skai is looking for the best and the brightest to join our rapidly growing team. We're proud of our industry-leading digital marketing software but we're even prouder of the people behind it. That's where you come in!

Skai is seeking a Growth Director, Enterprise who will be responsible for retaining and growing a portfolio of strategic enterprise clients, driving net revenue expansion, and leading client conversations at the forefront of AI-powered marketing technology. You will report to and partner with the VP, EGrowth.

Duties and Responsibilities



Client Growth & Retention

  • Retain and grow assigned strategic enterprise clients by managing senior-level relationships and owning the overall partnership
  • Drive net new revenue (NRR) via upsell and cross-sell — including global expansion, product expansion, new lines of business, and custom projects
  • Manage the renewal process end-to-end: identifying opportunities, leading negotiations, and finalizing contracts to deliver NRR growth
  • Pipeline development; account planning; forecasting, and proactive management of leads across assigned regional enterprise clients

Executive Relationship Development

  • Lead account development by establishing and deepening relationships with senior client executives and key decision-makers
  • Represent Skai at client, industry, and other events
  • Be an expert in your clients' industries — understand their business needs and challenges, and exemplify how Skai is their strategic partner
  • Agentic & AI Product Selling
  • Develop strong fluency in Skai's agentic product suite — including Celeste AI, Skai MCP, and the upcoming Skai Studio — and translate these capabilities into clear business value for enterprise buyers
  • Lead discovery conversations to understand how clients are building internal AI workflows, identify where Skai's tools fit, and partner with product and CS to co-create solutions
  • Stay current on the AI and agentic marketing landscape so you can credibly advise clients on where the market is heading, not just what Skai does today

Internal Partnership

  • Partner with the Client Success team to ensure a high level of customer satisfaction and ongoing support across assigned clients
  • Be an expert, both internally and externally, in Skai products and positioning; feed client insight back into product and GTM strategy
  • Maintain rigorous pipeline hygiene in Salesforce and other sales productivity tools
Requirements
  • 5–8+ years of sales experience, including selling SaaS-based software and service solutions to enterprise clients
  • Background in media planning, digital advertising, ad-tech, or SaaS strongly preferred; agency experience welcome
  • Proven track record of exceeding NRR targets and expanding strategic accounts
  • Genuine curiosity for AI-powered products — you don't need to be an engineer, but you should be able to hold a credible conversation about how agentic workflows create value for marketers
  • Executive presence and proven ability to manage complex, multi-stakeholder deals
  • Skilled use of Salesforce and other sales productivity tools

We are hybrid for the long term — with a great home/office work mix (three days in office per week), passionate and diverse team members, and a vibrant company culture.

The salary range for this position is $130,000–$150,000 base plus strong commission plan and equity. The actual salary amount will vary depending on the applicant's experience, skills and abilities as well as internal equity and market data.
