• Deliver compelling messaging to SMB and mid-market prospects
• Execute structured call, email, and Linked In cadences
• Collaborate with SAM leaders and sales partners to refine conversion strategies
• Strengthen your SaaS sales acumen through ongoing coaching, training, and immersion in our platform
• Demonstrate performance and consistency across a structured evaluation framework

• Associate’s degree or equivalent experience, required
• 1 to 2 years of outbound sales experience, required
• 2+ years of related experience, preferred
• Confidence communicating with decision makers via phone, email, and social
• Ability to manage volume, objection handling, and pipeline creation
• Desire to learn full cycle sales and move into a closing role

What’s in It for You

• A 6‑month accelerated program focused on outbound software selling
• Competitive compensation package with performance‑based incentives
• Hands‑on exposure to our SAM teams and full sales cycle
• Real opportunity to move into SAR or Sr SAR based on performance following 6‑months
• Skill‑building that positions you for long‑term career growth in software sales
