Sales Director recruitment helps companies find senior leaders who can manage sales teams, own revenue targets and improve commercial execution.
HEMES recruits Sales Directors who combine strategy, people leadership and hands-on understanding of how sales performance is created.
A strong Sales Director can lead teams, manage key commercial priorities and create a clear rhythm for performance. They understand pipeline, forecasting, customer relationships and sales process improvement.
The best candidates bring both strategic thinking and the ability to make things happen through people.

When should you invest in sales director hiring?
You should hire a Sales Director when the company needs senior ownership of sales execution, better management of teams or stronger alignment between sales strategy and revenue targets.
This role is especially valuable when the business is scaling, entering new markets or managing more complex commercial operations.
We help define what type of Sales Director your company needs. The right candidate might be a people leader, strategic operator, market builder or senior manager for an established team.
As a sales director headhunting agency, HEMES evaluates leadership track record, commercial decision-making, team management and fit with your sales motion.

Common Sales Director hiring situations
Companies ask HEMES to recruit sales directors when they need more senior leadership, stronger sales management or a leader who can take ownership of a key region, product line or team.
We help find candidates who match both the commercial challenge and company culture.
Where top companies find their sales talent.
Working with Martynas and HEMES has been a smooth and results-driven experience. We successfully hired two local full-cycle Account Executives, one based in Sweden and another in Cyprus, to support our business development efforts across Europe. HEMES team quickly understood our hiring needs, sourced and selected high-quality candidates, and managed the recruitment process effectively. I’d recommend HEMES to any business looking to expand into new countries and hire their first local sales talent there.
MTL Carton used Hemes to headhunt the export manager. Within 10 days they presented 6 relevant candidates and we hired 2 employees instead of 1. Hemes team listened and heard us very well. And that is probably the most valuable quality of the partners you are working with. We will be working with Hemes in the future.
I've worked with quite a few recruiters over the years, and HEMES truly stands out at the top. Everything from communication to speed and execution is impeccable.We've hired two senior roles through them, and the experience has been consistently strong. They have a deep understanding of what senior roles in DTC businesses actually require, take the time to get alignment right, and vet candidates thoroughly, making the process smooth and saving us a lot of time in finding top-tier talent.We’re going to continue working with them and can only recommend them highly.
