Sales Director
Även känt som: Chief Revenue Officer · VP of Sales
Sets the sales strategy for markets and channels, directs sales managers, builds the revenue budget, and accounts for commercial results at board level.
The sales director carries end responsibility for the sales organisation and decides on territory design, incentive structure and channel choice. Unlike a sales manager, decisions here concern how the sales function is built rather than individual deals. Selection stalls on the assumption that a large personal portfolio automatically produces good structure, so candidates are hired without experience of channel choice and incentive models.
