Candidates with experience using comparable CRM, dialler and sales engagement platforms will also be considered.
The ideal candidate has approximately 3–6 years of B2B outbound sales experience and has previously worked on international campaigns, particularly within the US market.
You should be someone who can be given a target market and take ownership of it. You understand that successful outbound sales requires more than simply making calls — you research prospects, manage follow-ups, personalise communication, maintain your pipeline and consistently work towards qualified meetings.
Experience within SaaS, outsourced business development, lead generation, sales agencies, marketing agencies or other B2B environments would be particularly relevant.
Candidates who have previously built their own outbound sequences, conducted prospect research, developed target lists or supported/led small outbound teams are also encouraged to apply.
In addition to monthly compensation, the position offers a performance-based commission structure:
- USD $75 for every qualified meeting held.
- 10% of the first month's revenue for any new client deal closed from a meeting you booked.
A qualified meeting must match the defined target customer profile, include an appropriate decision-maker or influencer and successfully take place.
During the first 90 days, success will be measured by:
- Consistent outbound activity.
- A predictable flow of qualified meetings.
- Strong cold-calling performance.
- Effective prospect qualification.
- Consistent and proactive follow-up.
- Accurate CRM and pipeline management.
- Professional communication with US prospects.
- The ability to operate independently and take ownership of results.
As the role develops, you will have the opportunity to work across additional client campaigns and take greater ownership of outbound business development activity.
Candidates should be comfortable completing an introductory video as part of the application process.
The interview process may also include a live mock cold call and follow-up sales scenario to assess phone presence, communication, objection handling and follow-up ability.
