So… you’re wondering what is this role about?

To be honest, we are not looking for an Inside Sales Associate, that’s merely a title. What we are looking for is Hunger! For people who are hungry to go out a play in the major leagues even though they have no name, to sit down and drive results that create an impact, and to go out of their way to get things done when it matters most. We’re looking for freshers who possess the energy, the passion, the drive, but most importantly, the desire to prove themselves and create an impact.

This is a role that can be considered the backbone of sales at Insider. A crucial part of this role is to identify and reach out to prospective sales opportunities. This is where our ‘growth’ begins.

We also realize that most Job Descriptions almost always sound like the description of an A-380 but when you’ve arrived at the airport what you find is a Cessna twin-seater! We want to write a JD that’s realistic and as close to the real thing as possible. How can we do this? So, we thought about it and realized that the best JD for this role is one that comes from the insights of other Inside Sales specialists. Here’s what they have to say:

Job Description

• Work with the assigned region to help the Insider Global Sales teams in the UK, the US, Singapore, Malaysia, Dubai to boost their performances
• Identify new sales opportunities through inbound lead
• Follow-up with prospects through outbound cold calls and emails
• Understand customer needs and requirements
• Brainstorm with the team on how we can identify key players and generate interest in Insider’s products
• Maintain and expand the prospect database in our assigned segments

Okay… now you’re thinking, what do we expect from you?

• University degree in a related field
• Relevant experience such as SDR or Inside Sales is a plus
• A fair understanding of the eCommerce markets
• Ability to multitask and manage time effectively
• Excellent oral and written communication skills in English
• You’re a natural around the phone (Dialing dozens of numbers a day is a piece of cake for you)
• A passion for market research, identifying key players, and generating leads
• Ability to be flexible and adapt quickly in a fast-paced, start-up environment
• A fair understanding of Digital Marketing or experience in a customer-oriented position

Alright.. so now you’re contemplating, what’s in it for me?

• You'll have a structured career roadmap as a Global Sales Manager (to be relocated to one of Insider's offices) after a strong onboarding and development process
• You'll improve and challenge yourself with the many soft skills training that we offer. You’ll have access to 16,000+ online courses taught by real-world professionals on the LinkedIn Learning platform to satisfy your hunger for knowledge.
• You’ll have space to share your skills through training sessions and workshops if you wish. Sharing is caring!
• We’ll provide you with a paid Spotify account subscription, how do you fancy working to the beats of your favorite audio while blocking out the rest of the world?
• You’ll have a chance to work in an international, diverse, and inclusive environment
• You’ll be part of an industry that’s shaping the future of customer experiences. Still not sure? Just ask Google.
