• Experience building successful relationships with senior decision-makers and C-suite stakeholders.

• Confidence using Salesforce, Gong, and sales engagement tools to manage your pipeline and inform your sales strategy.

• A customer‑centric approach and the ability to balance commercial outcomes with a high-quality customer experience.

• Resilience, ambition, and perseverance, combined with sound judgement and an ethical approach to selling.

• The ability to operate independently while remaining collaborative and contributing to the success of the wider team.

• Professional fluency in English + Polish or another Central and Eastern European language is strongly preferred.

• Legal authorisation to work in Spain and the ability to work from our Barcelona hub.

• "Perk doesn’t require academic studies for this position. We select based on experience and potential, not credentials".

AI at Perk
AI is embedded in how we work across every function. The tools you’ll use day‑to‑day are AI‑enabled so you can move faster and spend more time on the work that matters. In practice, that means using AI to research and prioritise accounts, draft and refine outreach, handle customer interactions more effectively, synthesise information, and cut through shadow work - the invisible tasks that pull people away from the work only they can do - so you can focus on relationships and outcomes.

How We Work

At Perk, we take an IRL‑first approach to work, where our team works together in‑person 3 days a week. As such, this role requires you to be based within commuting distance of our hubs. We fundamentally believe in the value of meeting in real life to improve connectivity, productivity, creativity and ultimately making us a great place to work.

Perk is a global company with a diverse customer base, and we want to make sure the people behind our product reflect that. We’re an equal opportunity employer, which means you’re welcome at Perk regardless of how you look, where you’re from, or anything else that makes you, well, you.
