Honoring Diverse Perspectives

About the Role
As the Senior Sales Manager, you will guide customers through the early part of their journey with Lightship, from first impressions and interest through to order and delivery. You’ll often be the first face of Lightship, whether at events, on digital channels, or during customer visits, and your role is to help people feel confident and excited about joining the Lightship community.
You’ll work closely with our Customer Success team to ensure a smooth handoff as customers move from pre-delivery into ownership. While the majority of this role is focused on individual customers and families, you will also play a part in cultivating early B2B opportunities and supporting enterprise relationships as Lightship expands.
This is an individual contributor role with high visibility and strong influence, ideal for someone energized by building relationships, shaping processes, working cross functionally, and making an impact across the early stages of the customer journey. This position may require up to 50% travel for events, customer visits, and partner engagements.
