• Follow up with interested prospects to maintain relationships and gather information
• Collaborate with the sales team to support their pipeline development

Required skills and knowledge

We are seeking individuals who are enthusiastic, people-oriented, and curious about the world of sales. You do need some prior experience or sales-relevant education, but the keys to success are the right attitude and a willingness to learn. Our team will guide you every step of the way.
