Jeeves has been recognized as one of The Information's 50 Most Promising Startups in 2023, as well as a Y Combinator Top Company 2021-2023 and won “Fintech of the Year" at the European Fintech Awards. Since graduating from Y Combinator in 2020, Jeeves has successfully raised over $380 million and is backed by top world-class investors including Andreessen Horowitz, Y Combinator, CRV, Tencent, Stanford University, Clocktower Ventures, and founders of more than 15 unicorns including David Velez (Nubank), Carlos Garcia (Kavak) and Sebastián Mejía (Rappi). Jeeves is building *the* financial operating system for companies across Latin America — and Brazil is our fastest-growing, and most strategic market. We're looking for a Head of Sales to own how we win it. This is not a seat-warmer role. You'll inherit a team that's already producing, a product that's already winning, and a market where we have more demand than we can currently cover. Your job is to turn that momentum into a dominant commercial machine — one that is unapologetically metrics-driven, methodology-rigorous, and AI-native. You'll report directly to the Country Manager, Brazil, and partner with global leaders across Marketing, RevOps, Customer Success, and Product to shape how Jeeves goes to market in the region. **Location**: This role is based out of São Paulo, Brazil, and is a full-time position where it is required to come into our office at complexo JK Iguatemi (3 days/week). #LI-Hybrid ### Why this role, why now Brazil is Jeeves' clearest path to category leadership in LatAm. The AE team is performing, but we're under-covering the opportunity in front of us — you'll get to scale it from a position of strength, not from scratch. We have a strong point of view on how a modern sales org should run: rigorous methodology, clean pipeline data, disciplined forecasting, and AI as a true force multiplier. Your job is to execute that point of view in Brazil and set the bar for the rest of the region. ### What you'll do: - **Own the numbers.** Set ambitious but credible targets, manage to them relentlessly, and run a data-driven operating cadence — weekly pipeline reviews, forecast calls, QBRs, and performance dashboards that tell the truth. - **Run the methodology.** Embed MEDDPICC, SPIN, and Challenger into how the team qualifies, sells, and forecasts. Shorten cycles and lift win rates through discipline, not hustle. - **Hire and develop world-class AEs.** Build a team that operates with accountability, learns fast, and wins consistently. Raise the bar with every hire. - **Build an AI-native sales org.** We expect every rep to be AI-augmented — using Claude, Gong, Clay, and modern CRM copilots as daily tools, not novelties. You'll set the standard and raise it every quarter. - **Sell alongside your team.** Engage directly with strategic prospects and customers. Land and expand with CFOs, founders, and finance leaders — and coach your AEs to do the same. - **Shape GTM.** Feed market signal back into Product, Marketing, Pricing, and RevOps. Help decide what we build, how we price it, and how we position it in Brazil. - **Build the operating system.** Playbooks, onboarding, scorecards, ramp plans — own the infrastructure that lets the team scale without breaking. ### What success looks like in year one - You've scaled the AE team meaningfully while improving — not sacrificing — productivity per rep. - MEDDPICC (alongside the best of SPIN and Challenger) is embedded end-to-end: every deal, every forecast call, every QBR. Qualification is non-negotiable. - Forecast accuracy is consistently within 10% of plan, and pipeline coverage sits at 3–4x of quota. - The team is demonstrably AI-augmented: reps are faster at prospecting, sharper on calls, and better at multithreading complex deals. - You've personally closed 3–5 strategic logos and built executive relationships Jeeves will leverage for years. ### Minimum Qualifications: - 8+ years in B2B SaaS sales or business development, with 3+ years leading Account Executive teams. - **Fluent in Portuguese and English** (written and verbal), Spanish language proficiency a plus. - Proven track record of building and leading AE teams that consistently meet or exceed quota in a SaaS or subscription-based business. - Deep expertise in structured sales methodologies — MEDDPICC, SPIN, Challenger, or similar — and demonstrated ability to embed them into how a team operates day-to-day. You have a point of view on qualification and you enforce it. - Strong analytical and forecasting muscle. Comfortable in HubSpot, Salesforce, and BI tools; you live in dashboards, not gut feel. - Hands-on experience using AI tools to drive sales productivity — prospecting, call intelligence, outreach personalization, CRM copilots. You can point to specific tools you've deployed and results you've gotten. - Demonstrated success negotiating and closing complex, high-impact deals with C-level executives (CFOs, founders, partners). - Strong executive communication and presentation skills, with the ability to articulate value to financial decision-makers. ### Nice to have: - Background in high-growth fintech, payments, or financial services. - Multi-market or cross-border commercial experience within LatAm. - Operating experience in fast-scaling or early-stage companies. - A network of transferable B2B relationships with mid-market and enterprise companies in Brazil (helpful, not required). - Track record of building sales playbooks, onboarding programs, and scalable processes from the ground up. ### Why Jeeves We're building the financial OS that LatAm companies have been waiting for, at the speed and ambition of a company that plans to win. If you want to own how a category-defining fintech wins Brazil — with modern tools, a serious methodology, and a team that expects excellence — we'd love to talk.
