• Proficiency in HubSpot and outbound platforms (Apollo, LinkedIn Sales Navigator).
• Native speaker of local language and fluent in English.
  
  

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.
