Description
Overview
The Sales Enablement team plays a critical role in equipping Esri’s sales professionals with the training, tools, and resources they need to succeed. You will lead the design and delivery of sales enablement programs that build product proficiency, customer engagement capabilities, and sales confidence. This role is highly cross-functional and focuses improving seller performance, execution against go-to-market priorities, and customer outcomes.
This role is ideal for someone who is highly organized, collaborative, and passionate about building scalable sales excellence. This role serves as a trusted partner and influence leader across Sales, Sales Operations, Product Marketing, and other cross‑functional teams.

Responsibilities
- Sales Enablement Strategy & Execution. Design and deliver advanced sales enablement programs aligned to enterprise sales goals, go‑to‑market priorities, and account strategies. Translate commercial strategy into practical learning experiences that improve seller effectiveness and drive measurable outcomes.
- Curriculum Design & Delivery Excellence. Own end‑to‑end design of complex sales curricula, including onboarding, role‑based learning paths, messaging enablement, and skill development programs. Deliver high‑impact live and virtual training, modeling strong facilitation and instructional excellence.
- Cross‑Functional Alignment & Influence. Partner closely with Sales, Sales Operations, Product Marketing, Technical Enablement, and other stakeholders to ensure enablement initiatives are aligned, relevant, and actionable. Lead enablement efforts through influence rather than authority, navigating organizational complexity to drive outcomes.
- Coaching & Enablement Leadership. Serve as a recognized sales enablement expert and coach, mentoring peers and enablement team members on program design, delivery, and execution.
- Performance Insight & Continuous Improvement. Define and apply program‑level success metrics such as adoption, readiness, and sales performance indicators. Use data, field feedback, and stakeholder input to diagnose performance gaps and continuously improve programs.
- Change & Innovation Enablement. Champion new approaches, tools, and methodologies that improve seller productivity and execution. Adapt strategies to evolving sales motions, market conditions, and business priorities while maintaining focus on scale and consistency.
