What will you do?

At Ground, we’re seeking an impossible talent. It’s arguably one of the most important roles Ground will ever hire for and set the direction of Ground’s very own future. 🔮 If you’re ready to dive into the world of dynamic and high velocity sales, this may be the position for you…
As one of the first business hires outside of the founders - you will also be the very first sales & growth hire. As the ‘Head of Beauty’ you will help identify, engage, and close new business, as part of our core team. While a challenging position, for the right person, that’s smart and tough, dynamic and creative, this role can also be one of the most rewarding roles.
The ‘Head of Vertical’ Pioneer: The first salesperson in a successful startup often goes on to achieve remarkable things. They develop a unique bond with the founders and early team members—a connection that reps 10, 20, or 200 will never quite replicate. More importantly, this position is much more than a salesperson but rather a vertical lead responsible for creating a playbook that involved sales, product, marketing, and client relationships. You will create the playbook for leaders to come.
