Vice President, International

• Develop targeted campaigns with Marketing, Sales Development, and industry teams. Give sellers propositions that address the needs of local buyers, and use campaign results to improve targeting and follow-up.

• Find partners that help Toptal reach clients or serve a market. Agree on how you will sell together, who owns the client relationship, and how each party benefits. Judge partnerships by the business they generate.

• Help sellers recognize when a client needs services or an AI-based solution. Bring in the right expertise, coach teams on explaining the value, and ensure the seller stays responsible for advancing the opportunity.

• Hire and develop strong regional leaders. Review their coaching and join client calls to see where teams need help. Set clear expectations, demonstrate better approaches, and address underperformance promptly.

• Establish a consistent rhythm for pipeline reviews, forecasting, and account planning. Investigate missed targets and change what is not working. Work with Finance to keep spending within agreed budgets and direct resources toward the best growth opportunities.
