We’d love to hear from people with

Experience: 1 - 2+ years of full-cycle sales experience, with a specific focus on outbound prospecting and new business acquisition.
Methodology: Familiarity with structured sales frameworks such as Sandler, MEDDPICC, or similar methodologies.
Strategic Mindset: A creative approach to prospecting—you prefer generating your own opportunities over waiting for inbound leads.

Coachability: A genuine growth mindset; you seek out feedback and continuously look for ways to sharpen your craft.
Strong A.I. Curiosity: Demonstrated curiosity and hands-on experience with generative and research AI tools (e.g., ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, or similar) to accelerate prospecting, personalization, and productivity; a growth mindset toward leveraging AI in the sales process is essential.
