  • Track all activity, pipeline, and next steps accurately in CRM
  • Partner with internal teams to ensure smooth handoffs and strong client experience
  • Build and nurture long-term relationships with prospects and clients
  • Stay informed on industry trends, competitive landscape, and client use cases

What We’re Looking For:
  • 2+ years of experience in sales, business development, or account management
  • Strong follow-up skills with the ability to manage multiple deals at once
  • Solid business acumen and comfort discussing financial or operational concepts
  • Excellent communication skills — confident, clear, and professional
  • Highly organized with strong attention to detail
  • Self-motivated and proactive, with a desire to learn and grow
  • Experience in SaaS, fintech, financial services, or B2B sales is a plus

Total compensation includes base pay of $60,000 + commission, with the opportunity to exceed this amount through strong performance. You will also be eligible for a full suite of benefits including medical, dental, vision, PTO, and more!
