Vice President Mlm Jobs (NOW HIRING)

Job Description: JOB DESCRIPTION Vice President of Sales Reports To: Chief Executive Officer (CEO), on an interim basis. This role would typically report to a Chief Revenue Officer (CRO); that position does not currently exist and is anticipated by 2028. Direct Reports: Sales Team Leads, and Sales Representatives not assigned to a Team Lead. Team override structure is limited to one direct layer (Sales Team Leads); multi-level (MLM-style) override structures are not used. Employment Type: Full-Time, Exempt (Remote, U.S.-based) Department: Sales POSITION SUMMARY The Vice President of Sales leads InstaMed Pharmaceuticals' U.S.-based sales representative organization, with standing responsibility for substantially growing the number of active sales representatives (with a goal of doubling to tripling current team size), growing the number of practitioners carrying InstaMed products, and growing U.S. sales revenue. This role owns the sales rep portal and its associated KPIs, sales challenges, and leaderboards; manages the InstaMed Position2Win Sales Program; and leads sample request management, trade show oversight, pipeline and funnel management, and sales rep AI-based enablement. This role's channel oversight covers U.S. sales representatives and distributor accounts. White-label and co-branding partnerships are a distinct, complex function that remains with the CEO and COO; the VP of Sales refers any white-label or co-branding inquiries directly to the CEO rather than managing them independently. The VP of Sales works in close partnership with the CEO and COO on strategic planning, competitive intelligence, and risk identification; consults with the COO on inventory needs ahead of promotions and launches; consults with IT on CRM build and implementation; and coordinates with Marketing on promotions and trade shows and with the Chief Clinical & Scientific Officer, Scientific Advisory Board, and Customer Service Manager on product feedback and positioning. This role reports to the Chief Executive Officer (CEO). The Chief Operating Officer (COO) continues to oversee company operations broadly, including Customer Service, Shipping & Logistics, IT, and Production.
