  • Collaborate across the organization to refine our consultative approach, sharing insights and mentoring others to ensure a world-class customer experience from the first touchpoint.


The ideal candidate will bring:
  • 2 years of quota-carrying experience, preferably in a SaaS solution-selling environment with a proven history of achieving results in a performance-driven organization.

  • Proven consultative sales solution skills, with the ability to lead complex discovery sessions and align technical solutions to specific business outcomes.

  • Knowledge of the email marketing/marketing automation space, allowing you to provide deep industry insights to prospects and customers.

  • Ability to maintain a high level of productivity and manage multiple competing priorities under the pressure of time constraints in a fast-paced environment.

  • A self-motivated and driven attitude, with a consistent track record of working towards and achieving ambitious new goals.

  • Excellent communication and interpersonal skills, with the natural ability to build rapport, relate to others, and influence decision-makers.
