About the Role:

In this fast-growing, agile team, you'll work closely with the Sales Director, AEs, and other cross-functional teams to play a key role in driving growth by building and prioritising target account lists, prospecting new business opportunities, and identifying and qualifying customer goals.

• Series A funding from a Tier-1 VC with 244 exits under their belt.
• Significant equity stake with minimal stock dilution.
