What You'll Do
Lead discovery calls to understand hiring needs, urgency, and decision-making processes, then present relevant solutions.
Manage deals from discovery through close, including handling objections, negotiating terms, and securing signed agreements.

Partner with SDRs to share feedback on meeting quality and improve outreach conversations.
Share customer and founder feedback to help refine the pitch, pricing, and sales process.
What We're Looking For
At least 2 years of experience closing B2B deals as an Account Executive or in a similar full-cycle sales role.
Experience selling to SMB or startup buyers and leading end-to-end sales conversations with founders and hiring managers.
Strong discovery skills, comfort addressing objections and negotiating terms, and disciplined CRM habits with reliable follow-through.
Recruiting, staffing, or HR services sales experience, startup experience, and familiarity with AI tools in sales workflows are helpful.
Compensation & Benefits
Salary range: $100,000 to $180,000 USD annually. Visa sponsorship policy was not provided.
