Position Summary

The AMP Sales Leader – Volume Acquisition will oversee our Volume line of business (ARR $12.5K–$50K), responsible for a team of approximately 15 quota-carrying sellers focused on growth, new logo acquisition, and expansion within the long-tail customer base.

This leader will own the strategy, execution, talent development, and day-to-day performance required to transform the Volume business into a systematic new logo engine. Success in this role means accelerating pipeline creation, partnering with channel to scale reach, and maturing Volume accounts into the Ascend pipeline over time.

This is a rare opportunity to build a modern, high-paced seller culture similar to AWS Greenfield, where agility, ownership, experimentation, and customer obsession are core expectations.

Responsibilities

Team Leadership & Performance

• Lead, coach, and develop ~15 sellers across new logo acquisition and existing Volume growth.
• Build a high-tempo, metrics-driven culture with clear expectations around prospecting, qualification, pipeline management, and execution excellence.
• Drive weekly rhythm: forecast accuracy, pipeline review, customer strategy, channel leverage, and skill development.

Growth & Acquisition Engine

• Own net-new ARR acquisition for the Volume segment ($12.5K–$50K ARR).
• Build repeatable outbound and inbound motions that drive sustainable pipeline growth.
• Design action plans that lift accounts ARR.

Channel Co-Selling & Demand Generation

• Partner with national and regional channel teams to build a predictable partner-led engine.
• Ensure sellers understand partner routes, deal registration, MDF motion, and joint engagement strategies.
• Create a tight partnership between channel and marketing to amplify reach and accelerate new business.

Owner Mentality

• Build your own business inside Trend Micro with autonomy, creativity, and speed.
• Identify whitespace markets, GTM opportunities, vertical micro-clusters, and local ecosystems to unlock faster growth.
• Work closely with customer success teams to align strategy and expedited results.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead and scale a Volume acquisition team focused on new business growth.
• Deliver quarterly/annual net-new ARR targets for the Volume segment.
• Build and refine processes for qualification, forecasting, outbound execution, and team discipline.
• Partner deeply with Channel, Marketing, and Technical teams to create a unified GTM engine.
• Track and optimize seller performance, leveraging coaching frameworks and skills development.
• Drive events, campaigns, local partnerships, and community ecosystems to amplify brand presence.
• Own customer experience across the Volume journey, ensuring smooth graduation into customer success teams.
• Represent the AMP region in leadership meetings, planning cycles, and strategy alignment.

Ideal Candidate Profile

We are seeking a high-growth builder, someone who has spent 7+ years driving acquisition-focused businesses—ideally in vendor, SaaS, or greenfield-style environments. This is not a maintenance role; it is a creation role.

Qualifications

• 7+ years of experience leading or significantly contributing to growth acquisition businesses in tech/SaaS/cybersecurity.
• Proven success running greenfield or high-velocity net-new logo teams.
• Experience with VAR, GSI, AWS, Azure, GCP, or cloud-native sales environments is highly beneficial.
• Demonstrated ability to build and scale outbound pipelines, seller talent, and territory motions.
• Strong understanding of channel ecosystems and how to accelerate net-new through partners.
• Ability to run a "builder mentality" team: structured, metrics-driven, optimistic, and innovative.

Leadership Attributes

• Humble-minded, high-intensity, customer-obsessed leader.
• A coach, not a commander — someone who grows people and raises standards daily.
• Data-driven with a strong analytical approach to pipeline, forecasting, and performance.
• Comfortable operating with speed, ambiguity, and accountability.
• Thrives in environments where new models, new teams, and rapid evolution are the norm.
