About the Role

Cleary Gottlieb, a preeminent global law firm with 17 offices on four continents, created ClearyX, a separate business unit within the firm, to focus on building alternative models of legal services. ClearyX uses a unique combination of technology, people and process to create efficient, high quality legal services and products to support the firm and its clients.

ClearyX is seeking a Sales Director to help lead our commercial growth strategy in this newly created position. Reporting directly to the VP of Client Engagement, this role offers the opportunity to shape the future of our legal technology company by identifying new business opportunities, driving revenue growth, and building strategic partnerships.

This is a fully remote position with occasional travel for client meetings, industry events, and team collaboration. The role will be a “consultative” sales role, with the ability to synthesize client needs and requirements and ensure client success. As Sales Director, you will lead our go-to-market initiatives, build high-performing sales processes, and establish ClearyX as the preferred partner for legal professionals seeking innovative technology solutions.

  • A proven track record of growing revenue streams through innovative and consultative sales strategies;
  • Extensive experience managing client accounts with a focus on delivering measurable account growth alongside consistently high customer satisfaction ratings;
  • Exceptional interpersonal skills that enable you to build trust-based relationships with clients, colleagues, and stakeholders at all levels;
  • A collaborative approach that encourages open communication, teamwork, and mutual respect within your team environment;
  • Strong analytical abilities allowing you to interpret market data effectively and translate insights into actionable business plans, and
  • A curiosity about the challenges within the legal industry and an understanding of how ClearyX solutions can address these issues.

Responsibilities

  • Develop and implement comprehensive sales strategies that support the overall business growth plan and respond proactively to market trends;
  • Identify new business opportunities by closely monitoring industry developments and leveraging insights to inform decision-making;
  • Design and execute lead generation strategies that directly contribute to increased pipeline and sales performance;
  • Oversee the entire sales cycle from lead qualification to contract negotiation and closure
  • Develop and maintain sales forecasting and pipeline models, and regular reporting to senior leadership;
  • Represent ClearyX at industry events, acting as an ambassador to enhance reputation and expand professional networks;
  • Monitor key performance indicators related to revenue generation, client retention and satisfaction, and market share expansion, and
  • Support and participate in client demos, pitches, and other opportunities to promote our solutions to clients and prospects.

Qualifications

  • Minimum 5-7 years of B2B sales experience, with at least 5 years in increasingly senior sales leadership roles.
  • Proven track record of achieving revenue targets, with demonstrated ability to grow revenue streams through innovative sales strategies.
  • Experience in legal technology, professional services, or related SaaS environments.
  • Bachelor’s degree in a relevant field such as business, economics, statistics, or a related field, or equivalent experience.
