The sales team responsible for our US Private Sector customers is driven by our exciting opportunity to help organizations safely expand and develop their operations into the crypto ecosystem by providing them the solutions and information they need to make compliant and intelligent data driven decisions. This team also works with private sector firms trying to understand and disrupt ransomware and other cyber crimes by tracking and investigating activities that involve cryptocurrency. We’re experts on the “why” and the “how” with deep relationships and knowledge of navigating complex and multi dimensional sales processes. 
Sales Directors are servant leaders dedicated to enabling their team and yet still enjoy the thrill creating a calculated account plan and then closing a deal. Charged with leading a team of high-performing sales reps and hiring as needed to meet increasing market demand, you know how to attract exceptional talent, evaluate sales skills, and run a hiring process that is lean and leaves a positive impression on every candidate. We measure your success by your ability to accurately forecast revenue and hit (read: exceed) quotas and the engagement of your team.
