    About this role

    Human Interest is on a mission to ensure that people in all lines of work have access to retirement

    benefits.

    More than half of all working Americans are not saving enough for their future. Too often, it’s because they are employed by a company that doesn’t offer a retirement plan. Human Interest is changing that by making it affordable and accessible for small and medium-sized businesses to offer employees a path to financial independence through retirement savings.

    We’re a high-growth fintech company changing the retirement industry. We are backed by a number of investors. This includes funding from Marshall Wace and Baillie Gifford, as well as top investors such as BlackRock, TPG (The Rise Fund), SoftBank, Glynn Capital, NewView Capital, USVP, Wing, Uncork, and more.

    About the role

    As Manager of Inside Sales at Human Interest, your primary responsibility will be to coach and develop a high-performing team. The team is responsible for engaging new partners for lead generation of small businesses to become part of the fastest-growing 401(k) company in the world.

    They will manage a comprehensive sales funnel, requiring mastery in both acquiring net new partners and cultivating ongoing relationships to ensure a continual flow of leads through their pipeline.

    The team will look to your guidance and mentorship to help enable their success. You’re the right fit for this role if you are passionate about accelerating revenue, comfortable rolling up your sleeves, and have a strong bias to insight-driven action. You should be naturally curious and have the “go deep” mindset. And as we go 24,791 mph, you should be comfortable with change.
