A little about you...
- 4 Years+ working within sales or pre-sales teams for SaaS businesses

- You love helping people by matching their needs to solutions that minimize trade-offs, and maximize delight
- You’re deeply empathetic – you don’t need to be told that someone is having a tough day, and you seek out opportunities to make people smile
- You ask lots of questions – knowing that most people need careful coaching in order to truly explain the meaning behind their message
- You over-prepare (or, as you would describe it, prepare adequately) meaning you anticipate lots of things going wrong, and usually have a way to recover quickly

- You’re an excellent communicator – thinking carefully about how certain messages and phrases will be interpreted and selecting the most effective based on reading the room – most importantly you deliver messages confidently and clearly

- Continually learn about, and deliver presentations on, the platform roadmap – with a focus on the benefits of the features we’re developing
- Analyze the sales lifecycle and suggest refinements – asking questions and devising options for improvement
- Work closely with team members across the US and UK – sufficient overlap with relevant time zones is important
