ABOUT ELEVENLABS

ElevenLabs is an AI research and product company transforming how we interact with technology.

We launched in January 2023 with the first human-like AI voice model. Today, we serve millions of users and thousands of businesses - from fast-growing startups to large enterprises like Deutsche Telekom and Meta. Our investors are some of the world's most prominent, including Andreessen Horowitz, ICONIQ Growth and Sequoia. We've raised $781M in funding and our last valuation was $22B - multiples of 11, always.

We have expanded from voice into three main platforms:

  • ElevenAgents enables businesses to deliver seamless and intelligent customer experiences, with the integrations, testing, monitoring, and reliability necessary to deploy voice and chat agents at scale.
  • ElevenCreative empowers creators and marketers to generate and edit speech, music, image, and video across 70+ languages.
  • ElevenAPI gives developers access to our leading AI audio foundational models.

Everything we do is the result of the creativity and commitment of our team - builders doing the best work of their lives. We are researchers, engineers, and operators. IOI medalists and ex-founders. If you want to work hard and create lasting positive impact, we want to hear from you.

HOW WE WORK

  • High-velocity: Rapid experimentation, lean autonomous teams, and minimal bureaucracy.
  • Impact not job titles: We don’t have job titles. Instead, it’s about the impact you have. No task is above or beneath you.
  • AI first: We use AI to move faster with higher-quality results. We do this across the whole company—from engineering to growth to operations.
  • Excellence everywhere: Everything we do should match the quality of our AI models.
  • Global team: We prioritize your talent, not your location.

WHAT WE OFFER

  • Innovative culture: You’ll be part of a generational opportunity to define the trajectory of AI, surrounded by a team pushing the boundaries of what’s possible.
  • Growth paths: Joining ElevenLabs means joining a dynamic team with countless opportunities to drive impact - beyond your immediate role and responsibilities.
  • Learning & development: ElevenLabs proactively supports professional development through an annual discretionary stipend.
  • Social travel: We also provide an annual discretionary stipend to meet up with colleagues each year, however you choose.
  • Annual team offsite: Each year, we bring your entire team together in a new location - past offsites have included Croatia, Italy and Cancún
  • Co-working: If you’re not located near one of our main hubs, we offer a monthly co-working stipend.

ABOUT THE ROLE

We're hiring a GTM Lead to own how ElevenLabs builds outbound pipeline in North America. This isn't a traditional SDR management role. You'll lead a team of SDRs, build the AI agents and workflows that work alongside them, and stay close enough to the work to prospect and sell yourself.

You'll join at an exciting point: a strong SDR foundation is in place, new starters are joining, and more hires are planned as we grow. You'll define the next version of outbound here: what gets automated, what stays human, and how we break into new accounts and segments. Then you'll build it. We're an AI company, and our outbound motion should prove it.

This role is measured in pipeline dollars and revenue, not activity. If you've carried a closing number, built something real with AI, and get energy from developing people and watching your team win, we'd love to hear from you.

IN THIS ROLE YOU WILL:

  • Own outbound pipeline for our Corporate and Mid-Market segments in North America, with targets set in pipeline dollars and revenue
  • Lead and grow a team of SDRs, with more headcount planned
  • Stay hands-on as a player-coach: prospect, open new accounts, and coach in the moment
  • Build the AI agents, automations and signal-based workflows that let a lean team cover a large market, starting with ElevenLabs' own products
  • Run go-to-market experiments across segments, channels and markets, and double down on what works
  • Build onboarding, enablement and coaching that grow SDRs into future closers
  • Partner with Account Executives, sales leadership, marketing and RevOps on targets, ICP and a clean handoff to AEs

REQUIREMENTS

  • 8+ years in B2B software or technology sales, including time in a closing seat (AE, account manager or full-cycle seller) where you carried a number and beat it
  • Experience leading people: managing SDRs, AEs or a mix, or building a sales function from the ground up
  • You build with AI, you don't just use it: you've shipped agents, automations or workflows that changed how you or your team sells, and you can walk us through them
  • Recent, hands-on outbound experience with technical and business buyers
  • You work from the numbers that matter (pipeline dollars, conversion, win rate, deal size) and you know CRM and modern outbound tooling well
  • A track record at fast-growing companies; you're comfortable with ambiguity and pace
  • Clear, concise communication, and a coaching style that makes people better

BONUS

  • Early-stage or Series A–D startup experience, especially as a founding AE or first go-to-market hire
  • Exposure to voice AI, AI agents, customer experience, or developer tools and APIs
  • You've already built something with ElevenLabs
  • Experience with globally distributed teams

LOCATION

This role is remote-first and can be done from anywhere in the United States. You must be able to work in ET, CT, MT or PT time zones. We prefer candidates based in San Francisco.
