Company has 35 employees and is profitable. Targeting F1000 clients assisting companies to build their online presence, gain higher rankings on search engine results and do large scale website imaging and building. There is a very flat organizational chart. Management and founders all come from various F1000 companies, which has some influence on the culture and benefits offered. Environment is neither pierced-noses nor is it suit and tie…but rather, somewhere in the middle. The organization is currently relatively young, hip and outgoing people. It's a professional office environment, but not stiff.

This position is open due to huge growth in business and revenues. This is the time to spend the revenues that have been saved up over the last year to spend on a surge of growth going forward.

Ideal candidate has 5 to 10 years of sales experience. Should have been selling internet-based services for the last 2 to 4 years. We are not looking for someone who has been doing their own consulting practices. Ideal candidate has experience selling interactive media and search engine related sales. Looking for candidates who are very marketing-based, and less hard-core sales people. It's a very consultative sales approach. Prefer people who have entrepreneurial and leadership qualities.

Candidates will be working in either Manhattan or in northern New Jersey. The office in Jersey is a funky old downtown store front that has been gutted out and rebuilt. It's an old, cool brick building with wireless connectivity throughout. Many employees take their laptops across the street and work in the park or the coffee shop via their wireless connection. All in all, it's a hip, fun place to work.

Compensation is a base of around $65,000 to $70,000 plus bonus. First year's compensation should be around $110,000. Thereafter, candidate should be able to make around $140,000 or so by hitting the $1M quota. Full benefits include a 401k-type offering (with matching!) as well as full medical, dental, insurance, etc.
