Descripción del empleo

The Southern Europe Sales Team is looking for a Country Builder to support Spendesk's expansion in Spain.

As a Country Builder, you will play a pivotal role in driving Spendesk's growth by acquiring new SMB customers in Spain. You’ll be responsible for the entire sales funnel, from sourcing to closing, and ensuring the achievement of your own objectives.

You will collaborate closely with key departments such as Product (to influence the roadmap on local specifics) and Customer Success (to align onboarding and customer management with local needs) to provide a seamless customer journey from first contact to ongoing use.

Your missions

• Lead Generation and Prospecting: Identify and qualify potential clients through research, networking, and outreach strategies, targeting key decision-makers within prospective organizations.
• Sales Pipeline Management: Build and manage a robust sales pipeline, ensuring a consistent flow of qualified leads and opportunities to meet acquisition targets.
• Targeted Outreach: Develop and execute personalized outreach campaigns to engage prospects, leveraging email, phone calls, social media, and in-person meetings to initiate conversations and build interest.
• Needs Assessment and Solution Alignment: Conduct in-depth discovery calls to understand the specific needs and pain points of prospects, aligning the company’s solutions to address those needs effectively.
• Sales Presentations and Demos: Prepare and deliver compelling presentations and product demos tailored to the prospect’s industry, showcasing the value and ROI of the company’s offerings.
• Objection Handling: Skillfully address and overcome objections from prospects, providing clear and persuasive responses to move the sales process forward.
• Closing Deals: Drive the sales process to close, ensuring all legal and financial terms are agreed upon, and securing signed contracts from new clients.
• Market Research and Feedback: Stay informed about industry trends, competitor offerings, and prospect feedback to continuously refine and optimize acquisition strategies.
• CRM and Reporting: Maintain accurate records of all sales activities, opportunities, and client interactions in the CRM, providing regular updates on acquisition progress to senior management.

What We Expect

• Sales Experience: 3-5 years of experience in B2B sales, ideally within SaaS, Fintech, or similar industries. You should have a proven track record both as an Account Executive (closing deals) and a Business Development Representative (prospecting). Experience managing the entire sales funnel, from lead generation to closing, is essential.
• Entrepreneurial Exposure: Demonstrated experience in building projects or teams from scratch, such as launching a new sales territory or building a start-up sales team. We value candidates who have thrived in ambiguous environments with minimal structure and have the initiative to create their own processes and strategies for success.
• Market Understanding: Deep familiarity with local market nuances in Spain, including cultural and business practices. You should be comfortable navigating regional challenges and adjusting your approach to meet the unique needs of the market.
• Proven Results: A strong history of meeting or exceeding sales targets and effectively executing go-to-market strategies. You should have experience scaling sales efforts and continuously refining your approach to drive growth and achieve success.

What You Can Expect From The Process

• A 30 min video call with xxx, Talent Acquisition Partner, to fully understand your career aspirations and answer any questions you have.
• A 45 min video call with a TL Account Executive to better understand the role and to align expectations.
• A 60 min video call with members of the Account Executive team to present your case study. We will assess your hard skills and methodology, and you will picture your day-to-day as an AE at Spendesk.
• A 30 min final interview with our Head of Sales.

As we are an international team, please submit your application and CV in English.
