Requirements
• Drive a pipeline: you are an expert at managing multiple salespeople, including managing the metrics, writing and editing the playbooks, and creating a culture of hustle • Drive a pipeline: • Excellent IC salesperson: leaders at Maven are always the best ICs at their function, so you should be the best salesperson at the company • Excellent IC salesperson: • Taste: our experts have excellent taste, and so should you • Taste: • Maven is the home for human expertise on the Internet. We started with practical, professional courses on key skills taught by leading experts in your field. Think: learning AI Product Management from a head of product at OpenAI or an engineering lead at Meta. Our cohort-based model means engagement rates are 80-90% instead of the 5-10% from video-based learning. Over 500 experts use Maven and they earn $40M/year on the platform. • Maven now aims to be the #1 destination for expert creator businesses that include workshops, courses, corporate consulting, 1:1 coaching, and educational products. Today, we're direct to consumer but eventually we'll offer certificate programs, MBA-like programs, and sell directly to businesses. • We’re the industry leaders in a growing segment of the creator economy. As the need to learn AI grows, Maven has become the place to learn valuable skills. As AI takes over more mid-level IC tasks, access to human expertise is ever-more important. We've raised $25 million from Andreessen Horowitz, First Round, and a supportive network of industry angels. Join us to do the best work of your career, and help every professional access the world’s most impressive human experts. • TEAM & CULTURE • Maven is committed to having a small, empowered team (currently 25 total), so you should be excited to do your own market research, strategic thinking, end-to-end sales, and day-to-day operations. • We are high-ownership and high-collaboration. We post regular status updates to dedicated Slack channels to get input. If you’re blocked, everyone is there to help (but otherwise we’ll assume you’re on it). This makes Maven a great cross-functional learning environment. Expect direct feedback every single day! • Ownership, collaboration, and feedback are not just nice ideas here; we are fully remote, so they are required. We are a writing-focused company, with no-meeting Wednesdays for getting shit done (as a sales leader, you may have external meetings on this day but you should avoid internal ones). We gather for a week-long offsite twice a year where we discuss company strategy, hack on new product offerings, and get absurdly competitive over random games.
