Sales at Gearset

While our sales team predominantly operates from our headquarters in Cambridge, we boast a small yet formidable team based in our Chicago office. Regardless of their location, our teams work seamlessly together, providing comprehensive support and guidance to our customers around the world.

What it’s like working in the Sales team

As we've soared beyond the start up phase, and embraced our journey as a thriving scale up - our commitment to a culture of trust and collaboration is as important to us now as it was on day one. Our focus is always on empowering our customers to succeed. This shared mission propels us forward and keeps us aligned in reaching our goals.

How we work together as a wider team

At Gearset, our sales team is united by a common purpose: delighting our customers, and propelling forward as the market leader for Salesforce DevOps. Openness, trust, and adding value are key when it comes to our customer interactions.

We believe in freely sharing our expertise and experiences with one another, fostering a collaborative atmosphere that fuels growth and continuous improvement, allowing you to reach new heights alongside the best in the business.

Sales Development Reps (SDRs) are the first interaction many prospects will have with Gearset. Their role is to gauge where a prospect is at in terms of their evaluation of Gearset, or offer some helpful advice if this is their first time exploring Gearset.

Qualified leads are passed across to the Account Executives (AE’s). The AE’s pick up the conversation and work with the stakeholders to support the prospect in finding a solution that meets their needs. Due to the varied size of the deals, this team is split into SMB and MM.

Sales Engineers often join the demo calls to showcase the platform, dive into the technical pain points, and showcase how Gearset will solve those issues.

Our Sales Specialists share insights on our new features to existing teams and showcase the value of adding these products onto their Gearset account.

Renewals managers speak to all accounts when they’re nearing their renewal period, to discuss their year ahead with Gearset, and to explore if they have any additional needs that Gearset can support them with.

What our Sales teammates are saying

Work is a team game and it's a blessing to work with true trust and autonomy. Having the opportunity to go out to big ecosystem events, presenting and running workshops in front of 100s of people, has allowed me to become a domain expert and connect with folks around the industry, which is invaluable. What was most refreshing is that we truly care about the customer's problems and JTBD above everything.

Matt Jackson

Enterprise Account Executive

Working as a woman in tech Sales at Gearset has been an incredible journey filled with growth and support, in a genuinely caring environment. Unlike the stereotypical Wolf of Wall Street Sales, everyone goes above and beyond to look out for one another, creating a workplace where I genuinely love coming to work every day.

Being from a non-technical background, I initially felt intimidated by the prospect of learning technical product details. However, the support and guidance that helped me ramp up into my first role were unparalleled.

Sales Team Lead - Renewals

When I first arrived at Gearset, I immediately sensed something was different here. It’s not a Sales organisation like many other roles I’ve been in. You are part of a team that stretches way beyond just the ‘sales team.’ If I need help, someone is always there to help – whether that be someone from Product, Engineering, Marketing, Customer Success, you’ll find the support you need quickly. Gearset is a fantastic place to learn and grow both personally & professionally. It’s truly refreshing and a whole lot of fun!
