Position Summary
The Sales Administrator / Receptionist provides the administrative backbone of the sales organization. We’re looking for a dependable, energetic, and detail-oriented Sales Administrator to support our fast-paced, tech-driven sales department. The majority of this role is sales support: maintaining accurate customer and opportunity data in the CRM, sending out marketing materials, coordinating with operations and accounting, and producing the reports management relies on to track the pipeline.
The role also owns front desk coverage — greeting visitors and clients, answering and routing incoming calls, and keeping the reception area and conference rooms presentable. Because the front desk is the first impression clients receive, the person in this role is expected to represent the company professionally at all times.
The ideal candidate is detail-oriented and systems-comfortable, works accurately under deadline pressure, and can shift smoothly between focused administrative work and front-of-house interruptions.
