The Sales Enablement Manager owns enablement execution for a defined segment of DDN’s Account Executive organization. This role serves as the primary enablement partner for the segment, working closely with sales leaders, frontline managers, and cross-functional teams to turn business priorities into practical field execution.

This is a role for someone who understands that enablement is not just training. It is helping sellers know what to do, when to do it, how to say it, and how to apply it in real customer conversations.

What This Role Is Here to Do


You will help Account Executives execute with greater clarity, consistency, and confidence. That means building trusted relationships with the field, understanding what sellers and managers need, and translating sales priorities into enablement that is practical, timely, and built for how the field actually works.

You will partner with Enablement leadership to connect your segment’s needs to the broader enablement strategy, while owning the execution and reinforcement required to make that strategy land.

What Success Looks Like


Account Executives and frontline managers in your segment are better equipped to run DDN’s sales motions, walk into customer conversations with confidence, adopt new messaging and plays quickly, and apply what they have learned in the flow of real deals.

When enablement is working, you see it in the field. Sellers show up to customer conversations prepared. New messaging gets adopted. Launches don't fade after the first week.

The Work You’ll Lead

• Build and manage trusted relationships with sales leaders, frontline managers, and Account Executives in your segment.
• Design and deliver enablement programs, workshops, and reinforcement plans aligned to your segment’s sales motion, buyer journey, and competency needs.
• Participate in pipeline and deal reviews as needed to stay close to what is happening in the field.
• Own launch readiness for your segment, translating product updates, new messaging, and sales plays into field-ready training, tools, and communications.
• Stay close to the field and bring back what you learn: what is working, where sellers are stuck, and what the business needs to know.
• Use Salesforce and enablement platform data to track adoption, identify gaps, and make the case for where to focus next.
• Contribute to shared enablement infrastructure, including onboarding, certifications, play cards, content governance, and GTM Central.

What You Bring

• Experience in technical enablement, technical content, product marketing, solutions marketing, sales engineering enablement, or a related technical GTM role
• The ability to understand complex technical concepts and translate them into clear, practical content for partner and field audiences
• Strong writing and content development skills; you can make technical topics accessible without losing accuracy
• A working understanding of how partners and sellers use enablement in real customer conversations
• Experience working with technical SMEs, Product, and Product Marketing to gather inputs and produce usable deliverables
• Strong organizational skills and the ability to manage multiple content workstreams across stakeholders
• Curiosity, good judgment, and a willingness to ask the questions needed to get from technical detail to field-ready clarity

We Build Together

We’re a team that shows up for each other and for the field. We share what we know, ask good questions, and celebrate wins, big and small. DDN is building something real, and so are we.
