The posting

SmartLab is looking for a Director of Sales (East) to lead our regional growth strategy across the Eastern US, and to build a team that grows with it. This is a player-coach role: you'll carry your own quota while directly coaching, developing, and empowering a team of Growth Partners. You'll drive revenue and expand our reach in the K-12 education market, working closely with school and district leaders who are shaping the future of STEM education for their students.

We're looking for someone who works well independently and brings fresh thinking to sales and partnerships, someone who sees an opportunity or a stuck deal and already has three ways to approach it. You'll build genuine relationships, mentor your team toward their best work, and help create a culture rooted in accountability, strategy, and continuous growth. The ideal candidate lives in the southeastern United States.

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.
