In this role, you will be joining our Sydney team and focusing on developing our ANZ market.
In addition to generating your own leads, you'll also be supported by our dedicated business development representatives within the region, with leads generated from advertising efforts, trade shows, word-of-mouth, etc. You will drive the relationship and sale from start to finish before passing your new account over to our Customer Success team to nurture and grow.
We are looking for ambitious, mid-market new business sales individuals with a hunter mentality, experienced with SME, and a SaaS sales background (e.g. Email Service Providers, eCommerce platforms and System Integrators, CRM, etc.).
We also highly value the experience to recognize buying signals to convert prospects with a consultative approach, listening to and understanding where Dotdigital can help our partners business, coupled with strong and confident negotiating and closing skills.
