As our Inside Sales Representative Junior – Account Growth, you’ll help newly created businesses get more value from Qonto at one of the most important moments in their journey: right after company creation.

You’ll reach out to entrepreneurs who have recently created their company through Qonto, understand what they need next, and guide them toward the right Qonto plans, financial tools, add-ons, and partner solutions. This is a real Sales role, combining high-volume execution, customer discovery, pipeline ownership, and revenue impact.

You’ll report to Yannick Davillé, our Sales Lead based in Barcelona.

➡️ What you'll do
  • Own your pipeline from first contact to close: Reach out to newly created businesses by phone and email, manage your opportunities in Salesforce, follow up with discipline, and make sure every customer has a clear next step.
  • Run structured discovery conversations: Understand each customer’s business situation before pitching anything — their activity, maturity, priorities, and operational needs — then recommend the most relevant Qonto solution.
  • Present and close relevant offers: Drive the full Sales conversation around Qonto plans, Financial Tools, partner offers, and complementary products, always matching the right offer to the right customer need.
  • Maintain strong activity standards: This is a high-volume Sales role. You’ll manage a sustained daily call and email cadence, with an expected rhythm of around 2 hours of customer calls per day, while keeping conversation quality high.
  • Help build the team’s playbook: Share recurring objections, customer feedback, product insights, and segment signals with your Team Lead, peers, and Sales Enablement to help shape this new Account Growth scope.
➡️ What we're looking for
  • A first Sales experience behind you: A 6-month internship, apprenticeship, or first Sales role is enough — ideally in outbound, SDR, BDR, business development, upsell, or another call-heavy Sales environment.
  • Comfort with volume and repetition: You enjoy speaking with customers, you can handle a high number of calls, and you know that consistency, resilience, and daily execution are key to building strong Sales foundations.
  • A consultative instinct: You ask questions before you pitch. You listen, understand the customer’s context, and use discovery to make your recommendation simple, relevant, and useful.
  • CRM and follow-up discipline: You log your activity, keep your pipeline clean, manage reminders, and follow up properly. You understand that great Sales execution also depends on strong operational habits.
  • Fluency in French and professional English: You’ll work with French-speaking customers, so fluency in French is required. English is needed for internal communication, with a B2 level expected.
➡️ What we can offer you
  • A real Sales role from the start: You won’t just support or shadow the team. After your ramp-up, you’ll own your pipeline, your customer conversations, and your revenue targets.
  • A fast-learning Sales environment: The Company Creation segment gives you a high frequency of customer interactions, helping you build Sales reflexes quickly and learn from real conversations every day.
  • Structured coaching and clear progression: You’ll benefit from weekly coaching, call reviews, feedback sessions, and Sales Enablement support to improve your pitch, product knowledge, and Sales methodology.
  • A strategic new scope at Qonto: You’ll join the launch of a new Account Growth team focused on Company Creation, a high-potential segment where there is still a lot to build, test, and improve.
  • Growth opportunities within Qonto Sales: This role can be a strong entry point into Qonto’s Sales organization, with potential next steps toward more senior roles or other scopes such as acquisition, upsell, credit upsell, financing solutions, or other business areas.

Your manager will be Yannick Davillé, Sales Lead at Qonto, based in Barcelona.

His path? Yannick has grown through several hands-on B2B Sales roles before moving into Sales leadership at Qonto. He has worked as Inside Sales at Papernest, Account Executive at Otter, Business Development Representative at SOFY, and now leads an Inside Sales team at Qonto. Today, he focuses on team performance, Sales coaching, CRM optimization, pitch frameworks, conversion improvement, and helping Sales profiles progress toward more senior roles.

What does he bring to the team? Yannick brings a practical and supportive Sales culture. He knows what it takes to build confidence on the phone, manage short sales cycles, structure a pipeline, and progress step by step in a Sales career. He’ll give you clear expectations, regular coaching, and the support you need to develop strong Sales foundations while contributing to the launch of a new strategic team at Qonto.
