What You'll Do

  • Drive Sales Excellence: Manage the full sales cycle from discovery to close. Most of your focus will be on closing deals — not prospecting.​

Why You'll Love This Role

  • Modern GTM Motion: Our team operates with a cutting-edge GTM approach, leveraging best-in-class tools and intent signals to punch above our weight — meaning you'll close more deals, faster, without endless cold outreach.

  • High-Quality Leads: Benefit from a steady stream of qualified leads, allowing you to focus on closing deals.​ Our AEs are currently taking 4 to 5 new calls per day.

  • Career Growth: Join a fast-paced startup environment with ample opportunities for professional development and advancement.​

  • Collaborative Culture: Be part of a supportive team that values innovation, collaboration, and achieving results.​

Qualifications

  • Proven Sales Experience: 1-2 years of successful experience in a closing role, preferably within SaaS or technology sales.​

  • Strong Communication Skills: Exceptional ability to articulate value propositions and negotiate effectively.​

  • Adaptability: Comfortable in a dynamic environment and able to pivot strategies as needed.​

  • Bachelor's Degree: Required; field of study is flexible.​
