We’re currently a global team of 2100+ employees working from offices in the US (Atlanta), UK, Germany, Sweden, Norway, Denmark, France, Italy, Spain, Portugal, Singapore, Australia, and our headquarters in Helsinki, Finland. We work in small teams where everyone’s input is valued.

• Engage in targeted outbound demand generation: reach out to stakeholders in your assigned target accounts via email, phone, and social media to raise awareness of RELEX's value proposition.
• Qualify inbound and outbound leads and schedule qualified meetings for the Sales team.
• Collaborate closely with the regional sales team to build and support a robust manufacturing sales pipeline.
• Research target accounts and key stakeholders to craft and deliver personalised, compelling outreach.
• Help promote and follow up on physical and virtual events, ensuring high-quality lead engagement.

• Professional fluency in English and either Swedish, Norwegian, or Finnish.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills across multiple channels.
• Confidence engaging with senior executives at prospective customer organisations.
• A proactive and independent working style.
• Tenacity and resilience when faced with rejection.
• Eagerness to learn, grow, and bring a strong can-do attitude to the team.

What we consider an advantage:

• Professional fluency in other major European languages.
• Understanding of Manufacturing’s core processes (production planning, supply chain management, quality control, and inventory optimisation).
• Experience with Salesforce and Salesloft.
• Business Development experience.

What we offer you in return:

• A position where you can help retailers and consumer goods companies to reach their ESG initiatives through increased supply chain efficiency, reduced food waste, and an empowered workforce
• An international focus with learning opportunities in a rapidly growing SaaS company
• A respectful and professional, yet easy-going culture where ideas and initiative are always encouraged.
