Legendary Sales Director

What we are building at Conveo

Conveo is the AI research platform enabling fast, affordable, and high quality consumer / B2B research. Global brands like Unilever, Google, and Orange use our AI video interviewer to generate across insights, marketing, and product teams.

#1 What problem are we solving and why is this an important problem to solve

The current/traditional research methods companies rely on are slow, expensive, and superficial. Running great research also requires expertise which is a blocker to many companies. That directly affects how well companies understand their customers and how well they can serve them.

#2 The team you will join

You will join an extremely talented team of incredibly passionate, high-energy people. We go the extra mile while having the best time of our lives. Our team has the combination of decades of market research knowledge, incredible engineering ability, and experience building companies.

#3 how we operate:

• We truly care about our clients and the problem we solve. That means we humbly go the extra mile every time.
• Our engineering team talks directly with our customers. No layers in between.
• We work hard and we have fun.
• To keep our quality bar incredibly high, we want to execute with the smallest possible team.

The Role

This is a high-impact role where you’ll navigate complex orgs, multi-stakeholder deals, and long sales cycles (ACV $45K+), selling into industries like CPG, Pharma, Tech, and Financial Services.
