Vice President of Sales & Marketing
27North Inc. | Springfield, MO | Full-Time | In-Person
Build a Team. Build a Brand. Close Deals.
27North builds premium expedition vehicles for customers who expect the best. We're looking for a Vice President of Sales & Marketing who is just as comfortable closing six-figure deals as they are leading and developing a high-performing sales team.
This is not a role for someone who simply manages a sales department from behind a desk.
We're looking for a player-coach—someone who leads by example, carries their own sales pipeline, closes their own business, mentors the team, and helps drive the continued growth of one of the fastest-growing brands in the luxury adventure vehicle industry.
If you're passionate about sales, enjoy long consultative sales cycles, and thrive in an entrepreneurial environment where you can make a significant impact, we'd love to meet you.
What You'll Do
Sales Leadership
- Carry your own pipeline and personally close high-value sales.
- Lead, coach, and develop the sales team to improve performance and accountability.
- Help establish sales goals, processes, and KPIs.
- Review pipeline health and forecasting.
- Assist with complex negotiations and high-value customer relationships.
- Recruit, onboard, and develop future sales talent.
Business Development
- Generate new opportunities through networking, referrals, strategic partnerships, and outbound efforts.
- Build relationships with dealers, commercial customers, and high-net-worth buyers.
- Represent 27North at trade shows, industry events, and customer meetings.
Marketing Oversight
- Work closely with our marketing team to ensure messaging aligns with company goals.
- Review marketing campaigns, website content, social media strategy, and lead generation efforts.
- Help develop sales campaigns and product launches.
- Ensure marketing efforts support measurable sales growth.
(This position oversees marketing strategy but is not expected to create daily social media content.)
What We're Looking For
Required
- 7+ years of successful B2C and/or B2B sales experience
- Experience leading and developing sales teams
- Proven ability to personally close high-dollar deals
- Experience managing long sales cycles and consultative selling
- Strong negotiation and communication skills
- Comfortable working in a fast-paced entrepreneurial company
- CRM experience (HubSpot preferred)
Preferred
- Experience selling luxury products, RVs, boats, automotive, marine, powersports, construction equipment, custom manufacturing, or other high-ticket products
- Experience with custom-built or made-to-order products
- Marketing leadership or strategy experience
- Experience building sales processes from the ground up
The Ideal Candidate
You:
- Love to sell.
- Enjoy winning complex deals.
- Lead by example rather than by title.
- Are data-driven but people-focused.
- Can inspire a team while still being one of the top producers.
- Thrive in an environment where you can build something special.
Why 27North?
