This is a remote position.
HeyDelegate helps growing businesses scale by providing premium remote talent across executive support, operations, customer success, finance, marketing, and other business functions. We recruit, vet, and manage exceptional professionals, enabling our clients to grow without the overhead of traditional hiring.
As we continue expanding internationally, we are looking for an experienced sales professional to help drive our next phase of growth.
This is a true full-cycle sales role for someone who enjoys building business from the ground up.
You will own the entire sales process-from identifying prospects and building lead lists to running discovery calls, negotiating commercial terms, and closing new business.
We do not have a marketing team generating inbound leads or an SDR team booking meetings. Success in this role depends on your ability to consistently generate and convert your own pipeline.
If you're an independent, highly motivated sales professional who enjoys the challenge of creating opportunities through outbound prospecting, we'd love to hear from you.
- Build highly targeted prospect lists using tools such as LinkedIn Sales Navigator, Apollo, and other prospecting platforms.
- Execute personalized cold email and LinkedIn outreach campaigns.
- Prospect, qualify, and develop new business opportunities.
- Conduct discovery calls to understand client hiring needs.
- Present HeyDelegate's outsourcing solutions and recommend the right talent strategy.
- Prepare proposals, negotiate commercial terms, overcome objections, and close new business.
- Maintain accurate CRM records, pipeline forecasts, and activity tracking.
- Partner with our operations team to ensure a seamless client onboarding experience.
- Consistently meet or exceed monthly sales targets.
