  • Drive the overarching commercial strategy to increase the percentage of new logos purchasing Stormwater and Code Enforcement modules.
  • Act as the primary coordinator between Product, Sales, and Marketing to ensure positioning shows up clearly and consistently in the market.
  • Monitor the health of our product line funnel, identifying friction points in the sales cycle and deploying solutions to accelerate deals.

  • Monitor renewal health and partner with Customer Success to design adoption plays that ensure long-term retention.

  • Are analytical and data-driven, capable of translating market signals and "urgency drivers" into actionable sales plays.
  • Possess a "builder" mindset, energized by the challenge of creating playbooks, demo scripts, and pricing narratives from the ground up.
  • Are obsessed with the full customer lifecycle, understanding that a deal is only successful if the customer actually activates and uses the product.
  • Excel in evolving environments, enjoying the challenge of designing and operationalizing new market entry strategies from the ground up.

Preferred

  • Experience leading GTM motions for technical or workflow-driven products.
  • Experience with government or regulatory tech is a big plus.

  • We\'re a small team. As a member of our growing team, you will quickly become an invaluable part of our organization and have a meaningful impact on our business and technical direction. We welcome unique perspectives and backgrounds. Your opinion matters and we hope you\'ll share it.
  • We build each other up. A team works best when its members are adequately equipped with the tools to tackle the problems they are facing. Forerunner strives to provide adequate feedback and appropriate learning opportunities to help all its team members expand their skills.
  • We want you to be happy and healthy. Forerunner offers competitive compensation, health/vision/dental coverage, a 401k plan, and one expensed lunch per week. We also have a quarterly wellness reimbursement so that you can have flexibility in defining what “health” means to you.
