๐Ÿค
Weโ€™re strongly convinced that having a human touch in the process of selling folk is an accelerator, both in the long and short term. That's why weโ€™re looking for a Sales team member to join our GTM team.

About the role.

  • Run demos, and follow-ups to close accounts (in both English and French).
  • Buying a CRM is an educated process, we expect you to position folk as advisors to our clients

  • Take part in all sales-oriented process-building.
  • Weโ€™re setting up a sales machine: increasing the number of demos booked and launching key initiatives (outbound, user base targeting, inbound management, product intent detection etc.). There's still a lot to be improved.

  • Cross-team collaboration to improve our sales motion.
    • with Marketing & Growth teams to clarify ICP
    • with Inbound team to target demos that convert best and contribute the most to revenue
    • with Customer Success team to ensure good onboarding of our customers

About you and what will make your approach to the role.

  • You have previous experience (+2 years) in a sales-oriented-role (Inbound SDR, Account Executive) requiring you to focus on demos and lead conversion, ideally in a B2B software company
  • You have this โ€œextra-mileโ€ mindset to close deals whatever it takes
  • You are a people person. You possess good communication skills (build empathy, create good follow-up cadence, with the right copy and the right content)
  • You have a strong product sense in order to empathize with usersโ€™ problems and pitch folk
  • You are well-organized and able to shape the most efficient operating system (tools, workflows, materials)
  • You're fluent in English and in French (either you're a bilingual native speaker or you can trick us into believing you are).
  • Youโ€™re a team player, comfortable in an international setting, and not averse to having some fun at work!
