• You will be able to show a successful track record of hitting KPIs, but not necessarily in a closing role.
• You may have contributed towards closing new business revenue, whether that's partnering with an Account Executive as a B/SDR or closing deals yourself.
• You have some experience and understanding of outbound selling, whether that's cold calling, prospecting and building pipelines.
• You’re comfortable using your intuition. You will be operating in a small team in a global environment. You will be able to adapt, be flexible and collaborative.

• You’ll be reporting to our UK Team Lead, Nicola, collaborating with the wider Revenue Org. You will work closely with her on our goal to help potential clients see the value in building a better employer brand with our new product suite.
• You will gain experience in converting both inbound and outbound opportunities in this role as you’ll be actively generating new opportunities through outbound efforts. You will also manage and close inbound leads, as they come in.
• You’ll test and iterate on ideas to create a high quality pipeline, while ensuring we anticipate, manage and influence companies that aren’t ready to commit today.
