With Teamleader Focus, we simplify work for small businesses by offering an all-in-one solution for CRM, project management and invoicing.

We're looking for a Sales Development Representative to join us on our mission

As a Sales Development Representative at Teamleader:

  • Your mission is to move more leads through the sales funnel (about 3 to 6 months).

  • You will explore ways to generate sales growth.

  • You inspire agencies, our target accounts, to digitalise their workflow. You are free in the way you handle this (phone calls, social selling, mails, WhatsApp, LinkedIn, etc.). We will provide you with the tools and training to excel at this job.

  • You will work closely together with our Account Executives and Strategy Consultants as you will schedule discovery meetings for them and brief them in the most efficient way possible so that you can work towards your common goal: help companies to work smarter.

  • You will also be working together with the marketing team to help them identify and pursue the right targets and prospects with the right message.

When you start working you will get an in-depth training. You learn everything about us, our story, your colleagues, our workflow-tool and you get an in-depth sales onboarding too. Learning by doing, that is our motto. You will be part of a team that loves to work together, help each other, share insights and achieve success.

You’ll be working in a fast-paced tech environment with open feedback culture and room for initiatives as well as ideas.

  • An extensive training budget

  • A hybrid working model: a pleasant mix of office and home working.

  • A personal tooling budget, to make working from home as comfortable as from our offices.
