New Business Sales Manager

At HopSkipDrive, our goal is to create opportunity for all through mobility. We’re a technology company that solves complex transportation challenges where there is a heightened need for safety, equity, and care. Through our marketplace, we connect kids, older adults, or anyone needing extra support to highly-vetted caregivers on wheels. Through our software, we solve the biggest transportation challenges facing schools and school districts around the country. Founded by three moms as a solution to their own transportation challenges, we’ve now facilitated more than five million rides across over 17 states around the country. We continue to expand at a rapid pace, making the Inc. 5000 list four times, as well as the Deloitte 500 Fast-Growing Technology list. HopSkipDrive is a Series D company and has raised $100M in funding to date.

Who We Are:

We are a driven, mission-focused team, passionate about transforming transportation through innovation and impact. Rather than just selling a service, we build lasting partnerships with school districts and government agencies, solving their toughest challenges with our vetted CareDriver marketplace and cutting-edge solutions.

As a Revenue team, our goal is clear: drive revenue growth, deliver value to our clients, and redefine what’s possible in mobility—while making a meaningful difference for those who need it most. As the New Business Sales Manager, you will lead the team of Strategic Account Executives whose goal is to grow our list of clientele by selling the HopSkipDrive story, connecting our unique value propositions to their needs, creating urgency, and closing the deal to bring the solutions to reality.

To excel in this role, you will be expected to take ownership of and demonstrate the following key job responsibilities:

• Lead with Empathy & Urgency: Prioritize speed but also empathy, humility, and gratitude in your leadership approach. No deal is exactly the same, and no one rep has the same strengths that should be fostered. Leaders should always have high integrity, and resilience, be adaptable, and motivated to drive progress.
• Foster Accountability: Expect – and empower – your team to demonstrate extreme ownership over their goals, quotas, and outcomes of our team.
• Grow Market Share & Influence: The industry is not static, neither are we. You will constantly reflect on, experiment with, and utilize an evolving suite of strategies and tactics to grow our market share and influence within our industry.
• Prioritize Time Management: Demonstrate ever-present organization, efficiency, and focus on what is most important for individuals and the overall team, empowering you and others to juggle multiple projects at once.
• Seek Constant Improvement: Demonstrate curiosity and malleability in your sales approach, strategies, and tactics. We are constantly training and refining our craft to stay ahead of the competition and support overall company and client needs.
• Partner Cross-Functionally: Collaborate with internal teams including Support, Product, Trust & Safety, Legal, and Operations to relay and ultimately implement team and client feedback, optimizing our offerings to their needs.
• In-Person Prospect Engagement: Dedicate up to 50% of your time to travel with your team members (including overnight) for meetings, follow-ups, and cold prospecting. This business and industry thrives on personal face-to-face interactions.
• Performance Management: Create and evaluate team territories, goals, expectations, and priorities. Measure progress, provide coaching, make adjustments, and supply reporting to leadership.
• Voice of the Team: Serve as the leader of the team and representative to leadership – relaying team feedback, key market trends, changes, and opportunities.

Who You Are:

You're passionate about scaling and mentoring a world-class sales team that will drive sales growth, and deliver impactful solutions to prospective clients. With personal expertise in pitching, negotiation, and closing, you can confidently coach your team to sell the value propositions of HopSkipDrive to prospective clients and convert them into active paying clients.

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
