Overview

Senior Sales / Senior Account Executive - French speaker at lemlist

About lemlist

lemlist is the sales engagement platform that gives sales teams the unfair advantage they deserve.

Bootstrapped since day one, we’ve grown from 0 to $35M ARR in 6 years, without raising a single dollar. Today, we’re a profitable B2B SaaS company valued at $150M, trusted by 40,000+ sales teams worldwide to book more meetings and close more deals.

This is a highly entrepreneurial job in a company that has grown only in self-service/PLG and is now structuring a sales force.

Please read carefully and only apply if you speak French fluently.

You'll be both leveraging Inbound (Demo Requests and Product-Led Sales teams) and Outbound (using lemlist to find prospects) - "eat your own dog\'s food"

Key Results
