Sales Manager - SMB Market - Apprenticeship (All genders)

🎬 WHO WE ARE

Dailymotion is more than a video app, it's a visual conversation in motion, based on a unique algorithm designed to develop users' critical thinking. Dailymotion brings nuance to the debates that animate young people and puts listening, discovery, and kindness back at the heart of interactions to help build a safer and more virtuous Internet.

Dailymotion is also "Dailymotion Pro", a video hosting and broadcasting solution for professionals in all sectors; and "Dailymotion Advertising", a powerful, proprietary video marketing platform, offering a high-quality, secure environment for brands.

Our team: 400 people in France, New York, and Singapore, all united by the same ambition: to visibly shake up the global video platform ecosystem.

At Dailymotion, our team of talented individuals from over 40 nationalities embraces four core values every day:

• Opening perspectives - We build bridges between people from all backgrounds. We believe in freedom of expression, inclusion, and the mixing of cultures.
• Building a safer world - We cultivate empathy, the key to understanding others. Caring for one another drives us to create a supportive and safe community.
• Being bold - We are ambitious challengers. We make unconventional choices that will have a visible impact on the platform ecosystem.
• Creating meaning - We spark joy and curiosity, we feel good about what we do, and we want everyone else to feel the same satisfaction.

🚀 WHY WE NEED YOU

We're not looking for an intern, we're looking for a future sales professional. Someone who loves to sell, convince, and wants to learn the trade in real conditions.

Joining our SMB & New Business team means developing your own sales territory with independent media agencies and local advertisers across France. From prospecting to closing, you manage your sales cycle from A to Z.

The deal: You have your own playground, with diverse sectors (beauty, automotive, high-tech, textile...). You build and deploy your sales strategy based on identified opportunities, in alignment and collaboration with your manager. You develop your campaigns from A to Z and are fully responsible for your performance.

If you want to learn where things are happening, it's now.
