The Opportunity

Remote is at the forefront of the global employment revolution, empowering companies to hire and scale internationally with ease. As our Vice President, APAC, you will own and accelerate our growth in one of the most dynamic and diverse markets in the world. This is a rare opportunity to lead a high-performing team, shape a category-defining product's success, and make a lasting impact on how businesses access global talent.

We’re seeking a high-impact, strategic, and execution-focused leader with a deep understanding of solution and platform selling, mastery of enterprise deal cycles, and a passion for scaling SaaS sales organizations. You’ll bring a maniacal obsession with metrics, storytelling, and value-based selling—ensuring our teams lead with business impact rather than price. If you're an advocate of best-in-class sales methodologies like The Challenger Sale, MEDDPICC, or similar frameworks, and can turn sales into a repeatable, predictable, and scalable engine, we want to talk.

Key Responsibilities

  • Lead regional expansion efforts, ensuring we maximize our market opportunity across key industries and geographies.
  • Build and enforce a maniacal focus on sales metrics—tracking pipeline, conversion rates, cycle times, deal velocity, ACV growth, and retention.

  • Lead the team in storytelling and executive selling, ensuring we deeply connect with customers on a strategic level.
  • Partner closely with Marketing and Sales Development to drive high-quality lead generation and create an efficient inbound and outbound motion.
  • Leverage advanced AI-driven sales intelligence to improve conversion rates, optimize performance, and unlock new opportunities.

People, Culture & Team Development

  • Hire, coach, and develop a high-performing, elite sales leadership team to scale the organization.
  • Foster a culture of accountability, execution excellence, and customer obsession.
  • Drive a continuous learning culture, ensuring all sellers are trained in leading sales methodologies and consistently refining their craft.
  • Design high-impact incentive and compensation structures that drive performance and reward top talent.

Cross-Functional Leadership & Strategic Impact

  • Work with Revenue Operations to create AI-powered forecasting and analytics dashboards that provide real-time revenue insights.
  • Partner with Product & Engineering to advocate for customer-driven innovation, ensuring our roadmap aligns with market needs.
  • Act as a thought leader and evangelist, representing Remote at industry events, executive briefings, and partner engagements.

What We’re Looking For

Must-Have Experience & Leadership

  • Extensive sales leadership experience in high-growth SaaS environments, with strong experience leading multi-level sales organizations across multiple geographies.
  • Deep expertise in solution selling, platform sales, and value-based selling, ensuring customers buy on business impact, not price.
  • Obsessed with sales methodologies—fluent in The Challenger Sale, MEDDPICC, SPIN Selling, or other proven enterprise sales frameworks.
  • Proven ability to scale sales organizations to $100M+ revenue and build high-performing teams in a rapidly growing company.
  • A data-obsessed, metrics-driven leader with a strong grasp of revenue intelligence, pipeline analytics, and forecasting.
  • A master of narrative-based sales and executive storytelling, able to translate product capabilities into compelling business cases.
  • Experience in HR Tech, Payroll, FinTech, or adjacent SaaS markets is highly preferred.

  • High-impact leader who thrives at both strategic and tactical levels, seamlessly transitioning between vision-setting and hands-on execution.
  • A top-tier recruiter and talent magnet who attracts, develops, and retains elite sales talent.
  • A strong executive presence and boardroom-ready communicator, able to influence senior stakeholders and enterprise decision-makers.
