Director of Sales Productivity and Enablement

Supercharge our world-class business development team.

Simply stated, the right Director of Sales Productivity and Enablement is the single highest-leverage hire we can make today within our business development organization.

Via our world class research which has been cited by the press over 3,000 times in 2017 coupled with our newsletter of over 300,000 subscribers, CB Insights generates over 25,000 inbound leads per month! Not to be outdone by inbound leads, we also have an extremely successful outbound SDR team that is obtaining well over 100% of quota.

As a result of all this success, CB Insights has more than doubled year-over-year revenue every year since 2013, with no plans on slowing down anytime soon.

So, what’s the “problem”?

There isn’t a problem, so much as there’s an opportunity. CB Insights has created a very lead-rich environment.  With an uptick in conversion through the various stages of our sales funnel, we could increase revenue by hundreds of thousands.
