Career & Market Insight

High-Value Leadership Role at a Design Unicorn: Figma is one of the most recognized SaaS brands in the design and collaboration space, and this Manager, Strategic Sales role puts you at the helm of the most important revenue segment — Fortune 1000 enterprise accounts. It's a significant career accelerator for experienced sales professionals.

Compensation vs. Market: The $155,500–$230,500 base salary is competitive and slightly above the typical US market range for a Sales Manager in SaaS ($130K–$200K base). Add equity, sales incentive compensation, and an annual bonus, and total compensation could be substantially higher — a strong package.

Skills You'll Develop:

  • Enterprise and strategic account management at scale (Fortune 1000)
  • Sales team leadership, coaching, and talent retention
  • Cross-functional collaboration (Product, Engineering, Marketing, CS)
  • Go-to-market strategy for a top-tier SaaS platform

Green Flags:

  • Direct reporting line to VP of Enterprise — high visibility career path
  • "Grow as you go" culture signals investment in employee development
  • Broad benefits including mental health, parental leave, and recharge days suggest employee well-being is valued
  • Figma is in an active growth phase with AI integration — exciting product roadmap

Watch-outs: The role is fast-paced and change-heavy — candidates who prefer stability over agility may find it challenging. PTO requires manager approval, which is slightly less flexible than unlimited self-managed PTO policies at peer companies.

Figma's platform helps teams bring ideas to life—whether you're brainstorming, creating a prototype, translating designs into code, or iterating with AI. From idea to product, Figma empowers teams to streamline workflows, move faster, and work together in real time from anywhere in the world. If you're excited to shape the future of design and collaboration, join us!

Figma is looking for a Manager, Strategic Sales to join our dynamic team of creatives, engineers, marketing wizards, and brilliant business folks. You aren't the typical sales leader, and we aren't the typical product development company. At Figma, we think outside the box, lift constraints that block our imagination every day, and we expect you to do the same. With this role you'll get in at the ground floor in a fast-growing sales org. You'll consult with our existing customer base and potential customers in driving meaningful relationships that add value to the customer experience and revenue to our bottom line.

Figma is growing and moving fast. Our next team member will have an agile, dynamic mindset, be comfortable embracing change, be a true team-player, and love working with our growing footprint of Fortune 1000 customers. You won't be alone! Figma has an incredible team and you'll work closely with other groups including Support, Design, Engineering, Product Marketing, Customer Success, and Community.

As Manager, Strategic Sales, you will lead a team of Account Executives responsible for continuing the growth of our Enterprise products. You will report directly to our VP of Enterprise and Strategic Sales, North America.

What you'll do at Figma:

  • Lead our Strategic Segment for North America
  • Participate in customer and prospect meetings with our largest and most strategic customers
  • Attract and retain top talent across the team
