Job description

Assessio is a European HR Tech SaaS company helping organisations make better and fairer people decisions through data and science. Our platform supports companies in selecting and developing talent based on potential rather than gut feeling.

Today, more than 2,000 organisations use Assessio, including Rabobank, G-Star, KLM, Maandag and PostNL. We are now looking for our new rockstar Sales Development Representative to join our team in Amsterdam and help grow Assessio in the Dutch market.

The role

As an SDR, you will be responsible for identifying and creating new business opportunities in the Dutch market. This is a highly outbound-focused role, where cold calling will be a major part of your daily work.

You will:

• Build targeted account and prospect lists for the Dutch market
• Drive outbound activity, primarily through cold calling, complemented by email, LinkedIn and other relevant channels
• Identify, engage and qualify potential customers
• Book qualified meetings and demos for our Account Executives
• Work closely with our Account Executives on target accounts, prospects and opportunities
• Collaborate with Marketing on targeted campaigns
• Maintain structured CRM data and contribute to pipeline reporting

Your team

You will join an established commercial team in Amsterdam and work closely with three Account Executives dedicated to the Dutch market. The Amsterdam office is also home to our AE and SDR team working towards the UK market, giving you a strong local sales environment with colleagues working on similar challenges every day. At the same time, you will be part of Assessio's international SDR team, with SDR colleagues across our European markets. We regularly share experiences, best practices and learnings across markets and work together to continuously improve our outbound approach and SDR processes.

Who we are looking for

We are looking for someone who already has a solid foundation in outbound sales and is ready to take further ownership of their prospecting and results.

• Previous experience as an SDR, BDR, Inside Sales representative or in a similar new business role, preferably within B2B SaaS
• Proven experience with outbound prospecting, with cold calling as a significant part of your previous role
• Experience working in a structured, KPI-driven sales environment
• Strong communication and research skills with expreience to identifying relevant stakeholders and building targeted prospect lists
• Fluency in Dutch and English

Experience from HR Tech, recruitment or another solution-based SaaS environment is an advantage.

To succeed in the role

You are commercially driven and enjoy creating opportunities rather than waiting for them to come to you. You are structured and proactive in how you manage your prospects and follow-ups.

You are curious and resilient. You want to understand the customer and the solution you are representing, and you are comfortable with the persistence required to succeed in outbound sales.

You also enjoy working as part of a team, sharing what works and learning from others.

What we offer

• Competitive salary and an attractive commission structure
• Employer-paid pension
• Investment in your personal and professional development
• Lunch at the office
• Hybrid working, with three days per week in our Amsterdam office
• Regular team activities and an annual international company trip
• The opportunity to contribute to our mission of Zero Talent Waste and a fairer labour market

Our recruitment process

As part of the process, we ask candidates to complete a personality assessment and a cognitive ability assessment. We use assessments to give everyone a fair opportunity and support our decisions with relevant data rather than relying only on CVs or gut feeling.

The assessments take approximately 30 minutes to complete.
