What Asana is looking for in applicants

Asana is looking for a senior sales professional who sets ambitious personal goals and holds themselves accountable to a consistent and repeatable process to achieve them.

The right person leverages strong business acumen and a value selling framework to create an all-in strategy for customers with the power of Asana.

This role is remote by design - we believe that collaboration and trust are accelerated through shared experiences, face-to-face communication, and ad-hoc discovery, both with our own team and with our customers.

  • Build the instincts to recognize and overcome organizational, financial and behavioral structures and obstacles.
  • Pilot and optimize sales playbooks that scale across Asana globally.

About You:

  • 4-7+ years of experience in a b2b closing sales role (previous SaaS experience a plus).
  • Full cycle experience required; from prospecting and closing net new logos, to maintaining business, to generating and closing complex sales deployments within existing customer accounts. 
  • Ability to prioritize sales cycles of varying lengths and depths, convey a clear position on the opportunities you have with each account, and organize/rally a supporting team behind your efforts.
  • Passion for being with customers and telling their stories.
  • Continually seek and pursue improvement.
  • Ability to navigate and thrive in ambiguity.
  • Prioritize operational rigor.
