Director of Sales - Mid Market

After over a decade of success with independent and regional restaurant chains, we are investing in the continued growth of our “mid market” sales team (20 units).

The team is supported by 3 Sales Enablement team members, and an Revenue Ops team of 4.

You will work cross functionally with all of them to help layer in more focus on the Mid-Market objective

s.
We’ve also recently acquired a new company—and we’re just getting started! As we roll out new products, you’ll help define product-market fit and go-to-market strategy for our mid-market clien

But what really sets us apart? Every member of our field sales team is a former restaurant GM, chef, or owner turned sales professional; and passionate about the craft of sa

MarginEdge: Where hospitality meets techn

ology
As a team built by former (and current!) restaurant operators, our mission is to bring operators the same energy, attention to detail, and passion that they bring to their guests. Our culture is deeply rooted in service, partially because that’s where so many of our team come from (including everyone on our Business Development team), but also because we believe it is just the right way to run a business. We design our software with profound empathy for the complexity of running a restaurant, and the goal of making the magic just a little easier for operators by taking the complex (read: very annoying) back office tasks off their plate, while empowering them with real-time

data.Our founders share a deep history in both owning and operating restaurants and in building successful tech companies. We are venture-backed and serve 10,000 restaurants across the US and C

anada.We enable restaurants to make magic while knowing we are doing the same for

them.We have the utmost respect for our clients and because of this, we are unable to hire their current empl

oyees.
