This role is ideal for a true hunter who thrives on outbound prospecting, building pipeline, and closing new logos.

• Identify and engage decision-makers across Marketing, Strategy, Insights, Finance, Consulting, and Executive leadership
• Conduct structured discovery to understand client use cases (e.g., market sizing, competitive
analysis, consumer insights, pitch support) and position Statista as a must-have intelligence partner
• Deliver tailored demos and presentations showcasing Statista’s data breadth, global coverage, and analytical capabilities
• Build and manage a strong pipeline to consistently meet or exceed monthly, quarterly, and annual new business targets
• Partner closely with SDRs, Marketing, and Sales Enablement to drive outbound campaigns and event follow-up
• Accurately forecast and manage pipeline using Salesforce and other sales tools
• Stay up to date on Statista’s product enhancements, premium content, and custom research offerings
What Success Looks Like

• Strong outbound activity with high-quality discovery conversations
• Closing multi-seat and multi-year licenses that expand Statista’s footprint within new
organizations
• Effective navigation of complex buying groups and longer sales cycles
• Trusted advisor relationships with prospects prior to close
What You Bring
• 2–6+ years of B2B new business sales experience, ideally in data, SaaS, research, or subscription-based products
• Proven success closing net-new logos and managing full-cycle sales
• Comfort selling value, not just price—especially in consultative, insight-led sales motions
• Strong executive presence and ability to sell to senior stakeholders
• Experience with outbound prospecting and pipeline generation
• Familiarity with CRM systems (Salesforce preferred) and modern sales tools
Nice to Have
• Experience selling data, insights, market research, or intelligence platforms
