Toptal is a global network of top talent in business, design, and technology that enables companies to scale their teams, on-demand. With $200+ million in annual revenue and team members based around the globe, Toptal is the world’s largest fully remote workforce.
We take the best elements of virtual teams and combine them with a support structure that encourages innovation, social interaction, and fun. We see no borders, move at a fast pace, and are never afraid to break the mold.
Job Summary:
As an Enterprise Sales Executive on Toptal’s Consumer Products & Services (CP&S) team, your mission is to win new enterprise clients and secure new business bookings. You will build your own pipeline, open doors into organizations where Toptal does not currently do business, develop opportunities, and close new commercial deals. This is a pure hunter role for accomplished sales professionals who thrive on creating opportunities, competing for business, and turning new relationships into meaningful revenue.
You will lead the end-to-end new-client acquisition process, from identifying target accounts and engaging decision-makers to shaping solutions, negotiating commercial terms, and securing the first revenue booking. Working closely with internal subject matter experts and key stakeholders, you will develop compelling solutions, navigate complex buying processes, and close new business. You will partner with Client Partners to ensure a seamless transition following the initial booking, allowing you to remain focused on what you do best: opening new doors and winning new clients.
We are looking for exceptional business developers who combine deep Consumer Products & Services industry expertise, executive credibility, and consultative selling skills with the urgency, persistence, and competitive drive of a true hunter. You understand the business and technology challenges facing consumer products, retail, and services organizations, and know how to translate those challenges into compelling commercial opportunities. You leverage your industry knowledge and relationships to navigate complex enterprise sales cycles, engage senior decision-makers, and create demand where none exists. You take ownership of your results, thrive on winning new clients, and do not wait for opportunities to come to you.
Consumer products and retail organizations are under pressure to move faster than their current operating models allow. AI has shifted from experimentation to execution, and companies across this sector are actively rethinking how work gets done across brand and marketing, commercial operations, supply chain, and digital commerce. Toptal’s CP&S team already partners with some of the world’s largest consumer products organizations to help address these challenges. You will bring together our capabilities across technology, AI, marketing, management consulting, managed services, and specialized talent to help new clients accelerate strategic initiatives and achieve measurable business outcomes.
Success in this role is measured by new enterprise logos acquired and new business booked. This is a high-accountability, high-reward opportunity for individuals who want direct ownership of their commercial results and the opportunity to build a substantial business through their own efforts.
This is a remote position with a strong expectation of regular, in-person client engagement and field activity. Candidates based on within commutable distance of a major East Coast metropolitan area are strongly preferred. We do not offer visa sponsorship or assistance. Resumes and communication must be submitted in English.

Responsibilities:
The following information is intended to describe the general nature and level of work being performed. It is not intended to be an exhaustive list of all duties, responsibilities, or required skills.
You will be responsible for building and converting a pipeline of net-new enterprise clients across Consumer Products & Services.

You will lead the sales process from initial engagement through securing the first revenue booking, working closely with internal subject matter experts and key stakeholders to shape compelling solutions, navigate complex buying processes, and close new business.
Your focus is exclusively on acquiring new clients. You will not inherit an existing book of business or carry ongoing account management and expansion responsibilities. Following the initial revenue booking, new clients transition to Client Partners and the appropriate delivery teams.
- Hunt and win new enterprise clients. Own new-logo acquisition and secured bookings across consumer products, retail, and services organizations, with direct accountability for identifying, developing, and closing new business.
- Build your own pipeline. Proactively identify target accounts, develop prospecting strategies, leverage your CP&S industry network, and create new opportunities through consistent, disciplined outreach.

- Open doors at the executive level. Establish relationships with senior business and technology leaders, economic buyers, and key decision-makers within organizations where Toptal does not have an established commercial relationship.
- Create demand and shape opportunities. Engage prospective clients around their strategic priorities, identify business problems worth solving, and position Toptal’s capabilities in ways that create compelling reasons to act. Bring informed perspectives on the commercial, operational, and technology challenges shaping the consumer products and retail industries.

- Compete and win. Develop winning strategies to displace incumbent providers, differentiate Toptal from traditional consulting and technology services firms, and navigate competitive enterprise buying processes.
- Sell the full breadth of Toptal’s capabilities. Work with internal subject matter experts and key stakeholders to bring together specialized talent, technology, AI, marketing, consulting, and managed services solutions addressing client challenges across digital commerce, supply chain, customer experience, commercial operations, and business transformation.
- Maintain a high-quality, self-generated pipeline. Build sufficient qualified pipeline to consistently deliver new-logo and bookings targets. Maintain accurate opportunity intelligence, forecasting, and disciplined sales execution.
- Take ownership of commercial outcomes. Drive opportunities forward with urgency, navigate obstacles, negotiate effectively, and remain personally accountable for securing booked revenue.
- Execute clean client transitions. Ensure commercial commitments, initial booking details, and relevant client context are transferred to Client Partners and delivery teams, allowing you to return your focus to new-client acquisition.
- Build a strong market presence. Spend meaningful time in front of prospective clients, developing relationships through executive networking, CP&S industry events, referrals, and direct engagement.
