General Manager

Job Summary:

As General Manager, Industrial Products & Services (IPS), reporting directly to the EVP, Industries, you will own the strategy, growth, and profitability of Toptal’s business across Automotive, Manufacturing, Agriculture, Oil & Gas, Chemical, and Logistics clients, with full P&L and budget authority. You will identify where we can win, decide where to invest, and build the team and client relationships to deliver sustained growth. Your mandate covers winning new enterprise clients, expanding existing relationships, and increasing the value clients receive from Toptal’s capabilities.

You will bring a clear perspective on the challenges facing potential clients and where Toptal can help. Working with our Services leaders and subject matter experts, you will translate those challenges into viable sales proposals across our AI solutions, managed services, management consultancy, and talent offerings. You will choose which markets, accounts, and opportunities to pursue, allocate resources accordingly, and give your team a focused plan.

You will lead from the front: personally leading executive client conversations, shaping proposals, working through difficult commercial negotiations, and helping close critical pursuits. Your team should see the selling standard you expect in your own work. You will understand what is driving performance, where growth is constrained, and what needs to change.

You will build on established enterprise relationships to expand the problems clients trust Toptal to solve through our services, AI-based solutions, and talent-based capabilities. You will have the authority to build the team and invest in profitable growth.

This is a remote position. Resumes and communication must be submitted in English.
