Who We Are Looking For
We are looking for the future’s top salespeople so if you have a passion for sales, an eagerness to learn and grow, and love to run at a fast pace, this is the role for you.
As a Sales Development Representative (SDR), you will be strategizing with your Sales Development Representatives, reaching out to Enterprise companies, and providing valued insights and stories that showcase Actian technology and unique value proposition. With Actian’s data intelligence technology fueling your day-to-day analytics to support your selling + our investments in innovative sales automation tools at your fingertips, you will be responsible for prospecting new business, continually learning new skills that will prepare you for the fast track into full sales cycle roles in the future.
Sales Development Representative:
Qualify: In this role you will primarily be the first point of contact for customers wishing to make use of Actian’s AI-powered data visualisation tool, which enables end users and Business Analysts to transform raw data into interactive, actionable insights via dashboards and reports through an easy-to-use interface.
In this role, you will gather information needed to qualify the prospects and document the information into a winning sales plan in salesforce.com. These will consist of reaching out to new contacts in existing customer accounts who are using other Actian solutions, as well as by reaching out to users of our free BI tools and upgrading them to more powerful paid-for editions. Success in this role could result in career growth as a full sales cycle seller and/or transition to other sales roles in other Actian units.
Stay organized and synthesize and report learnings from your client interactions on a regular basis to sales management, account executives – and take ownership to convert small data points & interactions into a new sales opportunity working in a sales team environment, with SDRs, Account Executives, Technical Engineering, and Customer Success.
The Sales Development Representative is the ‘tip of the spear’ that makes the best first impression with all new prospective customers – you get the meeting & create the best first impression.
