    Job Description

    Profound is the fastest-growing AI marketing platform, used by 15% of the Fortune 500 including Comcast, Estée Lauder, and Walmart, and innovators like Ramp, MongoDB, and Figma. It is where marketing teams do the work: research, briefs, content, campaigns, reporting, all in one place, alongside agents that carry the load with them.

    Built on 2B+ real user prompts and growing, Profound’s data shows you what people ask AI and what the models say back. Profound's AI Marketer joins that data with deep context about our customers to find the opportunities worth acting on, and then puts agents to work: automating reporting, drafting content, auditing pages for readability, running competitive research. It measures what works and gets better every day.

    As VP of Account Management, you'll own the strategy, structure, and performance of Profound's account management org. You'll set the vision for how we retain and grow our customer base, build the coaching culture and commercial rigor that turns strong managers into great leaders, and ensure every account is positioned for long-term expansion. Reporting to the SVP of Revenue, you'll be a key architect of Profound's post-sale revenue motion -- partnering closely with Revenue, Post Sales, Product, and Marketing leadership to align the AM org with company-wide growth goals and build a team that scales with the business.

    What You'll Do

    • Lead, coach, and develop our Account Management org across Enterprise and Mid-Market, setting clear expectations and holding them accountable to team-level NRR, renewal, and expansion targets

    • Own the full AM org's book of business and be directly accountable for net revenue retention across both segments

    • Build and align segment-specific playbooks while maintaining a unified commercial motion

    • Establish a strong coaching culture, creating consistent frameworks for pipeline management, deal strategy, and performance development that elevate managers and their teams

    • Run executive-level pipeline reviews, forecast calls, and deal escalations across both segments, surfacing risk early and driving accountability at every level

    • Serve as a senior commercial partner on the most strategic accounts, joining C-suite business reviews, complex multi-year negotiations, and high-stakes renewals

    • Recruit, onboard, and develop AM managers and their teams, building structured career paths and clear growth trajectories

    • Partner cross-functionally to surface customer insights and align the AM org with broader company priorities

    • Champion tooling, enablement, and process improvements that help both segments operate efficiently at their respective cadences

    • Report directly to the SVP of Revenue and serve as a key voice in shaping overall revenue strategy

    Who You Are

    • 8 or more years of SaaS experience in account management, new logo sales, expansion sales including at least 3 years managing managers or leading multi-segment AM teams

    • Proven track record owning NRR and expansion targets across enterprise and mid-market segments, with demonstrated ability to build and scale high-performing teams

    • Deep coaching and development instincts with experience creating frameworks that develop managers into strong leaders, not just strong individual contributors

    • Fluent across different sales motions -- high-velocity mid-market cycles and complex, multi-stakeholder enterprise deals -- and skilled at coaching teams through both

    • Executive presence and credibility to engage at the C-suite level, both in support of your managers and independently on strategic accounts

    • Entrepreneurial and decisive, comfortable owning outcomes and driving clarity in a fast-moving, high-growth environment

    • High integrity and long-term orientation, focused on sustainable revenue growth and building a team that wins the right way
