HubSpot CRM & Sales Support Specialist - Freelance, Remote

About the ClientOur client is a growing online marketplace in the recreational rentals space, connecting everyday adventurers with local businesses that rent out gear like bikes, kayaks, boats, and paddleboards. As a lean, founder-led startup, they're focused on making it fast and easy for customers to search, compare, and book equipment — while also supporting the rental partners who supply that inventory. They're currently modernizing their internal systems to support their next stage of growth, starting with a full CRM overhaul.Why does this role exist?This role exists to solve a critical operational bottleneck: the client's sales and customer support functions are currently held back by a clunky, inefficient CRM system with no in-house bandwidth to fix it. Without a proper migration to HubSpot and someone dedicated to owning it, the founder remains the default owner of CRM upkeep, training, and process — pulling focus away from growing the business, and putting the sales team's efficiency and the company's ability to scale at risk. This hire is being brought in to take full ownership of that transition, then stay on as the go-to person for sales support and eventually customer success, so the systems and processes underpinning the client's growth are stable, proactive, and no longer dependent on any one person to keep running.The Impact you’ll make
