• Proactively initiate first cold outreach with potential prospects through multi-channel sales approaches, including cold calling, emails, social media, and other relevant methods. Engage prospects and spark interest in our solutions.

• Develop long-lasting relationships with prospects to uncover needs through effective questioning, to qualify interest and viability to prepare hand-off to the wider BD team, ensuring a smooth transition.

• With a minimum of 3 years of sales or business development experience, you have a track record of crushing lead-generation targets and opening doors that others couldn’t.

• You handle objections like a pro and always find a way to turn challenges into opportunities.

• You’re proactive, thrive with independence, and enjoy taking ownership of your goals.
