The Role
About us 👇🏼

lemlist is the sales engagement platform that gives sales teams the unfair advantage they deserve.
Bootstrapped since day one, we’ve grown from 0 to $35M ARR in 6 years, without raising a single dollar.
Today, we’re a profitable B2B SaaS company valued at $150M, trusted by 40,000+ sales teams worldwide to book more meetings and close more deals.

This is a highly entrepreneurial job in a company that has grown only in self-service/PLG and is now structuring a sales force.

Please read carefully and only apply if you speak French fluently
