• You will be persistent in your follow up with enterprise customers, planning out valuations and facilitating regular meetings to demonstrate Klue’s product and answer any questions they may have
• You’ll prepare and present business cases to customers’ leadership teams, demonstrating how Klue can add value to their business.
• You can expect to spend 50% of your time in meetings presenting to business leaders, key stakeholders, and business users, so you must be confident in your presentation skills

Benefits:

• Competitive base compensation

Just ensure the required work gets done and clear it with your team in advance. You need to take at least 20 days off every year. The average Klue team member takes 2-4 weeks of PTO per year.
• Direct access to our leadership team, including our CEO
• Be part of a high performing sales team who know how to celebrate their success!
