Mid-Market Sales is where experience meets impact. You'll partner with growing businesses (1-19 employees), navigating the complexity of expansion-helping them strengthen their people operations and scale with confidence.

Lead consultative sales conversations with business owners and key decision-makers

Manage a high velocity sales process with small and mid-size businesses (1-2 call closes)

Own the full sales process-from discovery and solutioning to closing

What It Takes to Win

1+ years professional or sales experience (HCM experience preferred but not required)

Ability to navigate consultative, solution-based sales conversations

Strong prospecting mindset with comfort driving outbound, in-person field activity

Resilience, accountability, and a results-driven approach
