Ability to work independently in a fast-paced, target-driven environment.
Bachelor’s degree in Business, Marketing, Environmental Science, or other relevant major
What Makes You Stand Out:
Track record of exceeding outbound sales metrics, such as meeting or surpassing call, email, and opportunity creation targets.
Experience in a consultative sales approach, effectively leading early-stage sales conversations and uncovering deeper business needs.
Ability to quickly learn and articulate complex solutions, particularly in geospatial data, SaaS, or analytics-driven industries.
Experience working in fast-growing or high-performance sales teams, adapting to changing priorities and growth strategies.
Ability to craft compelling, hyper-personalized outreach based on research, industry trends, and prospect-specific challenges.
