About the role

Who We Are:

At Emburse, you’ll not just imagine the future – you’ll build it. As a leader in expense intelligence, we are creating a future where technology drives business value and inspires extraordinary results. Our AI-powered platform helps organizations modernize financial operations, increase visibility, and optimize spend across the enterprise.

Emburse is looking for a Senior Director of Mid-Market Sales to lead and scale our new logo business across North America (U.S. and Canada), focused on companies with 1,000–3,500 employees.

This is a high-impact leadership role in a growth-stage environment. The foundation is in place, and now we’re looking for a leader who can elevate execution, strengthen pipeline rigor, and scale a repeatable, high-performing sales motion.

You’ll lead a team of Account Executives selling into the office of the CFO, navigating complex, multi-stakeholder deals across a comprehensive financial operations platform. Success in this role requires a leader who is equally comfortable building structure and rolling up their sleeves — someone who can quickly assess gaps, implement discipline, and coach a team to consistently win.

What You Will Do

Lead & Scale the Team

Lead, develop, and inspire a team of Mid-Market Account Executives focused on new logo acquisition

Build a high-performance culture grounded in accountability, ownership, and continuous improvement

Recruit, onboard, and ramp talent as the team continues to grow

Drive Pipeline & Execution Discipline

Establish and enforce a strong operating cadence around pipeline generation, deal progression, and forecast accuracy

Ensure consistent pipeline creation, including rep-driven prospecting in addition to marketing support

Implement and maintain disciplined forecasting and deal inspection frameworks

Coach for Complex Sales

Coach reps on multi-threaded deal strategy, including stakeholder mapping and value articulation

Actively engage in and support large, complex deals with longer sales cycles

Elevate the team’s ability to sell multi-product, solution-based value in competitive environments

Engage Executive Stakeholders

Partner with reps to engage CFOs, Controllers, and senior finance leaders

Help position Emburse’s platform across travel, expense, AP/invoice, payments, and corporate cards

Drive strong executive-level conversations that align to business outcomes

Partner Cross-Functionally

Collaborate with Marketing, SDRs, Solutions Consulting, Customer Success, and Partnerships

Align go-to-market efforts to improve pipeline quality, conversion, and overall performance

Drive coordinated execution across the customer lifecycle

What You Will Bring

7+ years of sales leadership experience in SaaS or technology organizations

8+ years of overall sales experience in complex, solution-based selling environments

Proven success leading Mid-Market or Enterprise teams with longer sales cycles and multi-stakeholder deals

Strong coaching capability, particularly in deal strategy, pipeline development, and execution rigor

Demonstrated experience building and maintaining forecast discipline and pipeline inspection frameworks

Deep familiarity with Salesforce (or equivalent CRM) for pipeline management and forecasting

Experience selling into or coaching teams selling into the office of the CFO

Ability to operate effectively in a fast-paced, high-growth environment

Preferred:

Background in fintech, payments, or financial operations platforms

Experience scaling teams or building repeatable sales motions

Experience leading geographically distributed teams

Who You Are

A builder and operator — you know how to create structure, but you’re equally comfortable refining and improving what exists

Highly execution-focused, with a strong bias toward action and accountability

Skilled at balancing strategic thinking with hands-on leadership

A strong coach who can break down deals, guide reps through complexity, and elevate team performance

Comfortable in environments that require adaptability, agility, and continuous iteration

Data-driven, with a sharp focus on pipeline health, forecasting accuracy, and performance metrics

Confident engaging senior stakeholders and building credibility with both customers and internal partners
