About Gusto

At Gusto, we're on a mission to grow the small business economy. We handle the hard stuff — payroll, health insurance, 401(k)s, and HR — so owners can focus on their craft and their customers. With teams in Denver, San Francisco, and New York, we support more than 500,000 small businesses nationwide and are building a workplace that reflects the people we serve.

All full-time employees receive competitive base pay, benefits, and equity (RSUs) — because everyone who helps build Gusto should share in its success. Offer amounts are determined by role, level, and location. Learn more about our Total Rewards philosophy.

AI is a fundamental part of how work gets done at Gusto. We expect all team members to actively engage with AI tools relevant to their role and grow their fluency as the technology evolves. AI experience requirements vary by role and will be assessed during the interview process.

About the Role:

As a People Empowerer (PE) on Gusto's Platform Sales team, you'll be the sales manager for a quota-carrying, high-velocity pod of 10-12 Account Executives — responsible for coaching your team to multi-product quota attainment, pipeline management, and activity metrics like dials. Your coaching cadence includes weekly 1:1s, call review and coaching debriefs, roleplays, and quarterly PDPs. Beyond your own pod, you'll own cross-functional relationships with RevOps, PMM, Product, and Sales Enablement, shaping strategy not just for your Gusties but for the products Platform Sales sells and the team's broader direction. You'll also carry DRI ownership on 2-3 active OKRs — agent builds, cross-functional strategy sessions, and initiative follow-through are core parts of the role.

About the Team:

Platform Sales helps small businesses get more value out of Gusto's platform through fast, efficient upsell and cross-sell motions, leveraging product signals and marketing-driven leads to drive expansion revenue at pace. The team is scaling to roughly 54 Gusties across 5 pods, each led by a PE who combines quota-carrying sales coaching — pipeline management, activity metrics like dials, and multi-product quota attainment — with real strategic ownership over the products and processes the team runs on, in partnership with RevOps, PMM, Product, and Sales Enablement.

Here’s what you’ll do day-to-day:

  • Manage a pod of 10-12 quota-carrying AEs, coaching to multi-product quota attainment, pipeline health, and activity metrics like dials
  • Run weekly 1:1s and call review / coaching debriefs with each Gustie in your pod
  • Facilitate roleplays for Gusties in a growth stage and lead weekly pod syncs
  • Partner with RevOps, PMM, Product, and Sales Enablement to shape sales strategy and product positioning
  • Own DRI responsibility for 2-3 active team OKRs and deliver quarterly PDPs

Here’s what we're looking for:

  • 3-5+ years leading a quota-carrying SaaS sales team of 10+ reps in a high-velocity upsell/cross-sell motion
  • Direct ownership of OKRs and experience coaching to pipeline management and activity metrics (e.g., dials)
  • Multi-product SaaS experience is a plus
  • Strong cross-functional collaborator, comfortable partnering with RevOps, PMM, Product, and Sales Enablement

Our cash compensation range for this role is $143,675 to $176,000 OTE in Denver & Atlanta, $126,530 to $155,000 OTE in Phoenix. Final offer amounts are determined by multiple factors, including candidate location, experience and expertise, and may vary from the amounts listed above.

At Gusto, we don't use titles the traditional way, as a signal of rank or hierarchy. Instead, our titles describe two things at once — your craft (what you do, e.g. Engineering, Design) and your scope of ownership (what you're accountable for) — which is why you'll see something like "Head of X" instead of a rank word like "Director" that tells you neither. Because of this, the title on this posting may look different from what you'd expect based on the scope and seniority of the role, and from how similar roles are typically titled elsewhere. If you have questions about how this role compares to your current title or level, your recruiter can help translate.

Gusto has physical office spaces in Denver, San Francisco, and New York City. Employees who are based in those locations will be expected to work from the office on designated days approximately 2-3 days per week (or more depending on role). The same office expectations apply to all Symmetry roles, Gusto's subsidiary, whose physical office is in Scottsdale.

Note: The San Francisco office expectations encompass both the San Francisco and San Jose metro areas.

When approved to work from a location other than a Gusto office, a secure, reliable, and consistent internet connection is required. This includes non-office days for hybrid employees.

Reliable, consistent presence: We expect regular and predictable attendance, whether you're working in-office, hybrid, or fully remote, so that you stay closely connected to your team, customers, and stakeholders in real time and ensure colleagues and customers receive the timely support and responsiveness they deserve.

Our customers come from all walks of life and so do we. We hire great people from a wide variety of backgrounds, not just because it's the right thing to do, but because it makes our company stronger. If you share our values and our enthusiasm for small businesses, you will find a home at Gusto.

Gusto is proud to be an equal opportunity employer. We do not discriminate in hiring or any employment decision based on race, color, religion, national origin, age, sex (including pregnancy, childbirth, or related medical conditions), marital status, ancestry, physical or mental disability, genetic information, veteran status, gender identity or expression, sexual orientation, or other applicable legally protected characteristic. Gusto considers qualified applicants with criminal histories, consistent with applicable federal, state and local law. Gusto is also committed to providing reasonable accommodations for qualified individuals with disabilities and disabled veterans in our job application procedures. We want to see our candidates perform to the best of their ability.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
