As a Sales Manager on the Growth team, you will play a critical role in leading Dropbox’s shift from a PLG-led motion to a hybrid PLG → SLG model. You will lead a team responsible for driving expansion across our install base, while also helping define how we sell newer products like Dash. This role requires a balance of leadership, execution, and problem-solving. You will be expected to drive results today while building the operating rigor and sales motion needed for tomorrow. This is not a “run the playbook” role. You will help install the standards, coaching, and discipline required to evolve how the team sells, engages customers, and closes complex, multi-product deals.
