About the Role:
raisin is looking for a VP of Go-To-Market to architect and build the revenue engine that will power the company's next stage of growth. This is not a role for someone who wants to maintain what exists — it's for a builder who wants to design a modern, scalable GTM system from the ground up, inside a company where the mission actually matters.
Reporting directly to the CEO, you'll work closely with Client Success, Product Marketing, and R&D to ensure full-funnel alignment and predictable revenue growth.
Go-To-Market Strategy:
Define Raisin’s GTM motion (PLG, sales-led, partnerships, or hybrid)
Identify and refi ne ideal customer profiles (ICP) and target segments
Develop positioning, messaging, and value proposition
Establish clear growth channels and acquisition strategies
Explore product-led growth opportunities alongside new product launches
Revenue & Growth Ownership:
Build and scale pipeline generation across inbound and outbound channels
Own key growth metrics (pipeline, conversion, revenue)
Identify new growth opportunities through partnerships and ecosystem plays
Optimize customer acquisition efficiency and ROI
Sales & Marketing Alignment:
Bridge product, marketing, and sales into a cohesive GTM engine
Define and implement sales processes and playbooks
Work closely with marketing on demand generation and content strategy
Ensure consistent messaging across all touchpoints
Partnerships & Ecosystem Development:
Build and scale partner-led growth initiatives
Identify strategic partnerships that drive distribution and revenue
Leverage referral and ecosystem dynamics as a core growth lever
Operational Build-Out:
Implement systems, tools, and processes to support GTM execution
Establish reporting frameworks and performance tracking
Create repeatable, scalable playbooks for growth
About You:
8-10+ years in GTM, growth, or revenue roles within SaaS or tech
Experience building or scaling GTM functions in early or growth-stage companies
Proven track record of consistently hitting and exceeding revenue targets in a VP, Director, or senior player-coach capacity
Built and scaled a revenue engine — not just operated within one — including sales process design, pipeline management, forecasting, and performance discipline
Strong domain depth in either Sales Leadership or Marketing Leadership, with a credible and articulated plan to build capability in the complementary function
Hands-on outbound and pipeline creation experience — not solely reliant on inbound demand
Comfortable leveraging technology, automation, AI tools, and/or RevOps to improve effi ciency and forecasting accuracy
Scrappy, entrepreneurial, and thrives in resource-constrained environments
Humble, creative, collaborative, data-driven and genuinely people-centered
Bonus:
Experience scaling a GTM team through a combination of headcount, AI-enabled agents, and RevOps — not just hiring
Prior experience selling into the non-profit or social impact sector
Track record of bringing prior direct reports along to new roles
The Extras That Matter:
This is a rare opportunity to build something meaningful inside a company that has earned genuine loyalty from its clients over nearly three decades — and is now ready to grow.
Raisin is building something early — which means real influence, not just responsibility.
Opportunity to own and define GTM strategy from the ground up
Direct impact on company growth and trajectory
High autonomy with close access to leadership
Lean team — fast decisions, low bureaucracy
Ability to shape how a category (referral-led growth) evolves
Competitive compensation aligned with impact
A seat at the leadership table with direct access to the CEO and COO
Potential to grow into a broader CRO-type mandate if you deliver
Direct exposure to Board-level strategy and decision-making
