From great products to long-lasting companies, we believe that nothing great is made alone—come make with us!


Figma is looking for a Director, Account Management to join our dynamic team of creatives, engineers, marketing wizards, and brilliant business folks. You aren’t the typical sales leader, and we aren’t the typical design tool company.

You’ll consult with our existing customer base and potential customers in driving meaningful relationships that add value to the customer experience and revenue to our bottom line.

Our next team member will have an agile, dynamic mindset, be comfortable embracing change, a true team-player, and love working with our growing footprint of Fortune 1000 customers. You won’t be alone! Figma has an incredible team and you’ll work closely with other groups including Support, Design, Engineering, Product Marketing, Customer Success, and Community. As a Director, Account Management, you will lead a team of Account Managers responsible for the engagement, expansion and retention of our rapidly growing customer base. You will report to the Head of Sales.

What you'll do at Figma:

  • Evaluate and execute playbooks, and systems needed to support a high-growth team
  • Test and refine customer growth and retention strategies through data, segment-specific value drivers, and compelling stories 
  • Develop strong internal partnerships and collaborate cross functionally to maximize revenue opportunities to improve deal progressions
  • Build, develop, and inspire a team of high-performing Account Managers and leaders by creating scalable, data driven processes that drive team and company goals
  • Be accountable for the expansion, engagement and retention of our fast growing customer base
  • Interview, hire and train new team members as we scale the business and company

We'd love to hear from you if you have:

  • 10 years of experience in sales and account management (preferably SaaS)
  •  5 years of experience in management; 2 years of experience in second line leadership
  • Prior experience leading managers and Account Management teams or functions
  • Strong experience leading and building successful, collaborative, and high performing sales teams
  • Proven track record of success exceeding both expansion and retention targets
  • Understanding of our technical and competitive landscape
  • Ability to thrive in a constantly changing and growing environment

  • At Figma, one of our values is Grow as you go. We believe in hiring smart, curious people who are excited to learn and develop their skills.
