The Opportunity

The Jobs Jungle is disrupting the global recruitment and HR tech industry. We're a fast-growing, mission-driven platform connecting independent recruiters, HR leaders, and enterprises across Europe and beyond. We're backed by 250+ recruiters, proven enterprise clients, and a vision to transform how companies hire and scale globally.

Roles

We're looking for 2 exceptional Sales Leaders to join our founding team and drive our growth. This isn't a typical sales role. You'll own enterprise relationships, shape go-to-market strategy alongside our CEO, and be instrumental in scaling The Jobs Jungle into a global powerhouse.

Position 2: Enterprise Sales Leader – Bangalore (Remote for now but expected 1 day in office from next year) – France/Europe/UK Markets

Both roles are immediate joiners with equal authority, impact, and compensation. You'll drive enterprise sales across France, Europe, and UK markets while collaborating with each other to accelerate company-wide growth.

What You'll Own

• Lead end-to-end sales cycles for mid-market and enterprise clients across France, Europe, and UK
• Target and close deals worth €50K–€500K+ annually (recruitment services, platform licensing, Global Capability Center solutions)
• Build a robust pipeline of 30–50 qualified prospects at any given time
• Negotiate contracts, close deals, and exceed quarterly targets consistently

Relationship Building & Network Leverage

• Leverage your extensive professional network to open doors with decision-makers across France/Europe/UK (CHROs, CEOs, Procurement Leaders)
• Execute multi-channel outreach: LinkedIn, cold email, networking events, warm introductions
• Own client portfolios post-sale, ensuring retention, upsell opportunities, and advocacy

Strategic Impact

• Work directly with the CEO on go-to-market strategy, pricing, and product-market fit
• Provide market intelligence: what's working in France/Europe/UK, where the demand is, what competitors are doing
• Collaborate with Marketing and Recruitment teams to deliver customized solutions
• Shape the future of The Jobs Jungle through your insights and execution
• Manage CRM meticulously—track pipeline, conversion rates, and deal progression
• Generate weekly/monthly reports and forecasts with full transparency
• Hit and exceed KPIs: pipeline targets, conversion rates, average deal size, revenue goals
• Continuously refine your sales approach based on data and feedback

Why This Matters

The Jobs Jungle is solving a $100B+ problem in global recruitment:

• Companies waste millions on traditional agencies (15–18% commissions vs. our 9%)
• Independent recruiters lack the tools and platform to scale globally
• Global Capability Centers (GCC) are growing 30%+ annually, but setup is fragmented and costly

You're Not Just Selling Software. You're Helping

• Companies scale their teams affordably and efficiently
• Independent recruiters build thriving, independent businesses
• Enterprises tap into global talent at half the cost

Who We're Looking For

Your Background

• Proven track record: 5+ years closing enterprise/B2B deals, ideally in HR, recruitment, SaaS, or staffing
• Deep market expertise: You know the France/Europe/UK HR landscape, key players, pain points, and buying cycles
• Hunter mentality: You thrive on opening new doors, building relationships, and closing deals—not managing existing accounts
• Network: Extensive connections with HR leaders, CHROs, Procurement managers, or enterprise buyers across France/Europe/UK

Your Skills

• Fluency in English + French (preferred for Europe/France market penetration) (Candidates applying from India French skills does not apply on them)
• Advanced sales tech proficiency: Salesforce/Pipedrive/HubSpot, Apollo.io, LinkedIn Sales Navigator, email automation
• Exceptional negotiator with strong presentation and storytelling abilities
• Data-driven mindset: you live and breathe KPIs, forecasting, and pipeline metrics
• Coachable and collaborative—you'll work with a lean, ambitious founding team
