About the role
- Own GTM in your vertical: find the highest-value use cases for Clay, build pipeline, and close net-new business end-to-end
- Run consultative discovery that connects Clay's capabilities to the specific workflows, data realities, and compliance requirements of new verticals
- Get hands-on with Clay fast: you'll build and demo live in the product, not just describe what it does
- Develop industry-specific use cases and messaging with minimal support. You're comfortable putting together a one-pager, a few slides, or a sharp paragraph for an investor intro without waiting on PMM
- Go deep exploring new verticals’ data ecosystems: understand the tools and providers industries run on and articulate how Clay fits in or replaces them
- Feed the product roadmap with what you're learning in the field: what's resonating, what's missing, what needs to change
- Navigate vertical-specific legal and compliance considerations and help Clay build the muscle to handle them at scale
- Write the playbooks that future GTMEs will use
Requirements
- Experience founding or working in a specific vertical (ex: financial services, real estate, healthcare)
- You're technically fluent: you can speak the language of data, systems, and integrations without needing an engineer in the room
- Founder energy: comfort with ambiguity, bias toward action, translate customer needs into product requirements
- Experience selling or positioning a horizontal product across multiple industries: you know how to make a flexible platform feel specific and essential to each buyer you're talking to
- Familiarity working in GTM or a space reliant on data vendors so you understand how to evaluate, replace, or build on top of data providers
- A track record of closing in a consultative, multi-stakeholder selling motion.
