We’re looking for a Junior Business Developer to join us on our mission

As a Junior Business Developer at Teamleader

You’ll be in contact with entrepreneurs and small-to-medium businesses on a daily basis, talking to them about their work management software. Our goal is to help entrepreneurs work smarter with our all-in-one tool. 

You’ll be part of a team who loves to work together, help each other, share insights, achieve success, while inspiring entrepreneurs to digitalise their workflow. At the same time, you’ll grow too – both as a professional and as a person.

You’ll talk with many different entrepreneurs every day and most of the time, Teamleader is their first step to digitalisation; we really make a difference! You get to know your leads very well in a short period of time, our average sales cycle is 20 days. After potential customers activate a 14-day trial, you’re their go-to person. With your laser-focus and self-starter attitude, you identify future fans in a blink of an eye and you pass them on to a more experienced colleague to perform a demo and close the sale. In this process you’ll work on both inbound and outbound leads. We support you with a clear training track where we help you grow towards a more senior role. 

We want you to build a relationship with the entrepreneurs you’re talking to. You have a genuine interest in the SMB market and you want to help our leads work smarter.

The result: a team of both young and seasoned professionals led by supportive and approachable managers who give recognition and rewards for hard work. You’ll be working in a fast-paced tech environment with open feedback culture and room for initiatives as well as ideas. You’ll have plenty of room to apply your personality, express yourself, and impact our course of action with your insights or ideas.

On top of that, you’ll get:

• An extensive training budget

• A hybrid working model: a pleasant mix of office and home working. Find out more here.

• You love to talk with entrepreneurs about their businesses to identify their needs in regards to their workflow and business processes. 
• Preferably, you know a thing or two about B2B sales, Customer Relationship Management and entrepreneurship but we don’t require work experience for this position, as long as you can prove you’re a hard-working person with some great deal of willpower.
