About the Role:

The Director of New Markets at Motive leads the strategy, launch, execution, reporting, and scale of Motive's presence across Mexico, the United Kingdom, and Canada — and drives the evaluation and expansion into the next wave of international markets, including LATAM, the EU, and beyond. This role owns the go-to-market roadmap for these markets end-to-end: from opportunity sizing and entry strategy through localized demand generation, sales enablement, and long-term growth. The Director operates as both strategic owner and hands-on leader, building the team, partnerships, and playbooks needed to establish Motive as a category leader in each region.

This individual sets the vision for new market expansion and is accountable for commercial outcomes, not just program execution. Success requires a true startup mentality — comfort with ambiguity, a bias toward action, and a willingness to get their hands dirty. This is a builder's role: one day you're presenting expansion strategy to the executive team, the next you're on the ground running discovery calls, drafting localized collateral, or standing up an in-market process from scratch because no one has built it yet. There is no existing playbook to inherit; the Director writes it.

The role requires strong executive presence, the ability to build and lead cross-functional and in-market teams, and the judgment to make high-stakes prioritization calls across distinct regulatory, cultural, and competitive environments — often with incomplete information and limited local infrastructure.
