Head of Service Line, Sales-as-a-Service

The Head of Sales Practice Service Line is Foundever's domain expert in outsourced sales operations — inside sales, outbound prospecting, lead qualification, pipeline development, upsell and cross-sell programs, and retention sales. This role builds the Sales Practice into a packaged, go-to-market-ready service line with defined vertical plays, proven proof points, and the commercial content needed to grow within the existing account base and win new logos.

The role exists to convert Foundever's sales delivery track record into a market-recognized practice — building the service design, vertical playbooks, GTM content, and commercial engine that establish revenue conversion at scale as Foundever's competitive moat in the sales BPO market.

The global sales outsourcing market is on track to nearly double from $28.65B in 2022 to $57.46B by 2030 at a 9.4% CAGR, and the lead generation market alone is projected to reach $295B by 2027. The shift is structural: buyers no longer view outsourced sales as a cheap-labor substitute, but as a way to deploy AI-assisted, datadriven, outcome-priced revenue generation at a speed and scale internal teams cannot match. Foundever already runs high-value sales programs across travel, hospitality, and other verticals. This role takes that capability to market deliberately.

Job Responsibilities

• Monitor regulatory requirements relevant to outbound sales: TCPA, FCC Click-to-Cancel rule, state telemarketing registration requirements, Do Not Call compliance, and financial services sales suitability standards (FINRA, FCA Product Governance for regulated sales)

• Design the AI-augmented sales operating model — integrating real-time conversation intelligence, AIpowered objection handling, predictive next-best action guidance, and AI-assisted coaching into the Foundever delivery model
• Build the outcome-based pricing toolkit — defining the commercial structures, risk-sharing frameworks, and success measurement models that allow Foundever to compete on revenue outcomes, not just seat cost

Go-to-Market & Commercial Enablement

• Enable Foundever's Sales and AM teams to identify, qualify, and position Sales Practice opportunities within their accounts; deliver regular enablement sessions and maintain updated training content for the field
• Serve as the practice SME on strategic pursuits and RFPs — owning the technical and operational narrative, articulating proof points, and co-designing solutions with the Solutions team
• Drive upsell and cross-sell into the existing Foundever account base by identifying clients with latent demand in the practice area and developing targeted expansion plays
• Participate actively in client meetings, executive briefings, and new logo pursuit conversations — serving as the credible subject matter voice that builds buyer confidence in Foundever's domain expertise

• Represent Foundever at relevant industry events, vertical conferences, and compliance forums — building the external profile and network that generates both credibility and commercial opportunity
• Maintain active intelligence on the competitive landscape — tracking competitor service models,technology investments, pricing dynamics, and analyst assessments relevant to the practice
  
   

Team & culture
