About the Role
You will be the engine behind our sales team’s success. At Alex, we’re building the future of how sales teams operate, and we need someone who can make sure our sales team members are not just onboarded well but continuously coached, trained, and developed into world-class performers.
As our Sales Enablement Specialist , you’ll own the full lifecycle of seller readiness:
- Onboarding : Get every new Account Executive to full productivity quickly.
- Ongoing enablement : Deliver recurring training, skills development, and product education.
- Call coaching : Listen to sales calls, identify patterns, and provide actionable feedback.
- Sales excellence : Drive consistent messaging, continuous improvement, and high-quality execution.
You will ensure every AE (new and veteran) has the skills, insights, and confidence to tell Alex’s story and win deals independently. You’ll partner closely with Sales Leadership, RevOps, Product Marketing, and Product to ensure our enablement is always relevant, up-to-date, and deeply aligned with our strategy and product direction.
This is an in-person role based in San Francisco, CA.

- Ensure every new AE knows exactly what “great” looks like from Day 1.
Ongoing Enablement
- Run recurring sales training: discovery, demoing, objection handling, multithreading, closing, etc.

- Keep core resources - including Notion pages, Google Drive libraries, Aligned Deal Room templates - up to date at all times.
- Partner with Product Marketing to ensure messaging and collateral remain current and consistent.
- Work with RevOps to ensure processes are adopted and reinforced.
What You’ll Bring
- 3-6 years in Sales Enablement, Revenue Enablement, Sales Training, or L&D for Sales in a high-growth B2B SaaS environment.

- Exceptional communication and facilitation skills, clear, concise, and confident in front of teams.
- Ability to synthesize product updates into simple, compelling sales narratives.
- A builder mindset with a bias for speed and iteration, you turn ambiguity into structure quickly.
- Data-oriented thinking: you track enablement impact and continuously refine your programs.

- Make decisions quickly and iterate with optimism.
- Communicate concisely and often.
- Trust your peers and assume rationality.
- Work hard, because hard work beats talent when talent doesn’t work hard.
