Description

You will be joining Near, one of the fastest-growing Enterprise SaaS companies and experience a true start-up culture with the freedom to experiment and innovate. At Near, we believe that great culture is not just about work; it’s work + life. We not only encourage our employees to dream big, but also give them the freedom and the tools to do so.

You will create an outbound sales plan based on and supporting the sales team’s territory plan. Your role will be to augment the direct sales process and sales teams by generating leads through direct outbound customer engagement using digital, voice (phone), and other channels or technology as required. This will involve the identification of Job Titles, Roles and Contacts within target clients or industries. Finding appropriate means of contacting that person (including HubSpot, Zoom info, your network, colleague networks or other means as necessary) and making contact with that person for the purpose of lead creation. Your role will be to generate interest in the subject matter and establish the foundation to hand over to the appropriate sales team member.

You will play an important role in identifying and targeting new prospects and opportunities, responding to new inbound leads, leveraging, and in some instances creating, marketing and sales materials that enable Near to build relationships with potential clients.
