Key Qualifications:

• Minimum 2–5 years’ experience in job board sales, digital media, or recruitment.
• Demonstrable ability to hit sales targets and manage commercial accounts.
• Strong understanding of metrics such as CPC, CPA, ROI.
• Proficiency in HubSpot and outbound platforms (Apollo, LinkedIn Sales Navigator).

Personal Attributes:

• Entrepreneurial, self-managing and highly motivated.
• Confident, persuasive communicator and negotiator.
• Analytical and organised, with strong attention to performance data.
• Proactive problem-solver with a natural sales instinct.
• Team player who thrives in a flexible, hybrid international environment.
  
  

Training and Development:
You’ll receive onboarding and training from senior team members, access to sales collateral, pitch guidance, and regular support calls. At WhatJobs, we focus on helping sales talent develop rapidly and move up into more senior roles based on performance.

Benefits:

• Competitive salary with high commission potential.
• Fully remote and asynchronous work environment.
• Exposure to a growing international brand with global reach.
• Access to top-tier tools including HubSpot, Apollo, and AI content generators.
• Strong internal support from marketing, product, and delivery teams.
• A direct impact role with real ownership.
  

Why WhatJobs?
Join us at a moment of significant global growth. With over 70 international markets active, WhatJobs is accelerating fast, and we want strong sales professionals along for the journey. We reward results, champion autonomy, and equip our team with the best tools available to win.
