About Campfire
Campfire is the AI-native ERP redefining how finance teams operate. We replace legacy systems like NetSuite, SAP, and Oracle with a unified platform for the general ledger, revenue automation, and close management - powered by our proprietary Large Accounting Model. We're backed by Accel, Ribbit Capital, Foundation Capital, and Y Combinator, and trusted by fast-growing companies like Decagon, Replit, and Klarity. With more than $100m in funding so far, we're scaling the team that closes and expands relationships with modern finance leaders.
The Role
We're hiring a Sales Manager to lead a team of Account Executives - the people who take a qualified opportunity and turn it into a closed, thriving Campfire customer. You'll own quota attainment for your team, coach AEs through complex, consultative sales cycles into finance and accounting orgs, and instill the rigor and discipline of a high-performing sales floor. This is a player-coach leadership role for someone who loves the deal, knows how to develop closers, and wants to help build a repeatable, scalable sales motion from an early foundation.
What You'll Do
• Lead, coach, and develop a team of Account Executives to consistently meet and exceed revenue targets.
• Own your team's number: forecast accurately, manage the pipeline, and drive quota attainment quarter over quarter.
• Coach AEs through full-cycle, consultative deals - discovery, business-case building, multithreading, negotiation, and close - selling to CFOs, VPs of Finance, and Controllers.
• Run disciplined deal reviews and pipeline inspection, help reps navigate complex, multi-stakeholder evaluations that often displace incumbent ERPs.
• Refine and document the sales playbook: qualification frameworks (e.g., MEDDPICC), messaging, and repeatable close plans.
• Partner with SDR Managers on pipeline quality and handoffs, and with Marketing, Product, and Solutions Consultants on what's needed to win.
• Hire and onboard new AEs, and build a ramp program that gets them productive quickly.
• Build the team from the ground up - source, interview, and hire AEs, and design a ramp program that gets new reps productive quickly
• Maintain clean forecasting and CRM hygiene, and report on team performance to leadership.
• Foster a culture of accountability, coaching, and winning - where reps are challenged and supported in equal measure.
What You'll Bring
• 2+ years managing a quota-carrying AE team, with a consistent record of hitting and exceeding team targets.
• A strong personal track record closing B2B SaaS deals before you moved into management - ideally mid-market or enterprise.
• Track record of holding Account Executives accountable for self-sourced outbound prospecting in a full-cycle sales motion - not just managing our inbound-heavy pipeline.
• Experience selling technical or finance-oriented products; familiarity with the office of the CFO, ERP, fintech, or accounting workflows is a big plus.
• Command of a modern sales methodology (MEDDPICC, Command of the Message, Challenger, or similar) and the ability to teach it.
• Sharp forecasting instincts and comfort running data-driven pipeline reviews.
• A genuine coaching orientation - you measure your success by your team's growth and results.
• Thrive in a fast-paced, high-growth environment where the playbook is still being written.
Why Campfire
