What We're Looking For:
- 2+ years of experience in a full-cycle, closing sales role ideally within SaaS or similar environment
- Strong experience in outbound prospecting into new accounts and conducting product demonstrations in a value-based sales environment
- Strong drive with a proven track record of hitting or exceeding sales targets
- You are agile, coachable, and always looking to raise the bar
- Look for opportunities to learn, grow, and give/receive feedback
- A natural collaborator, you enjoy working with others and helping out whenever possible
