Yext is hiring a Regional Vice President of Enterprise Sales to lead and grow a high-performing team selling into Fortune 500 accounts across the region. This is a hands-on player/coach role for a proven enterprise sales leader who drives new business and builds winning cultures.

What You'll Do

  • Own regional revenue — set the vision, hold the number, and build the pipeline needed to consistently exceed targets
  • Lead a team of enterprise sales executives with a clear emphasis on net-new business, coaching each rep through complex, multi-stakeholder sales cycles
  • Build and maintain accurate weekly, monthly, and quarterly forecasts — no surprises
  • Drive outbound prospecting discipline across the team to develop high-value pipeline with strategic accounts
  • Foster a culture of curiosity, accountability, and craft — coaching reps on discovery, deal strategy, and executive engagement
  • Represent Yext in market through product demonstrations, executive briefings, and flagship account initiatives
  • Partner cross-functionally with Marketing, Product, and CS to evolve go-to-market strategy and sharpen demand generation
  • Develop targeted account plans with Marketing and ensure tight campaign execution against named accounts

What You Have

  • 5+ years leading enterprise SaaS sales teams, consistently finishing in the top tier — you have a track record, not just a tenure
  • Proven ability to build and scale net-new direct sales motions — you know how to open doors, not just close them
  • Deep C-suite network across key verticals including Retail, Hospitality, and Financial Services
  • Strong analytical instincts — you can dissect a pipeline, call your number with confidence, and course-correct early
  • A coaching-first mentality: you invest in your people, hold high standards, and create an environment where top performers thrive
  • A bias for action in ambiguous, fast-moving environments — you set the pace, you don't follow it
  • Exceptional written and verbal communication; equally effective in a boardroom and a deal review
