First impressions count. But you know that ... because you create them every day.
At Expel, we've got our eye on the long game - and it starts with you. Our customers need to be able to trust us, and that begins the second you get them on the phone or hook them with your email or LinkedIn message.
Our promise to them: we do what we say, and they will love what we do. We don't use sales jargon, replay tired phrases to describe ourselves, or negotiate like we're trying to sell them a pen (get it??). We want our customers to not only love our product, but feel good about how they get treated during every interaction with us. And that starts with you.
We're a breath of fresh air in an enterprise information security market that's confusing, hostile and dominated by vendors focused on their widget instead of what customers actually want or need. Even if the timing isn't right, we believe we should still offer value because chances are they'll be a customer six or 12 months down the road.
Expels’ Sales Development team is looking for new talent only you can offer. At your level, we don’t want you to recreate the wheel. We want you to bring your experience, whether it be in SaaS or Cyber Security, to the table and help drive revenue in this high impact role!
In this role, you’ll be working closely with - and learning from - Marketing and Enterprise Account Executives to seek out new target logos. You are an integral part of our sales organization, and here you will learn firsthand how Enterprise Account Executives move a deal down the funnel, as you’re working your way up your career ladder.
