You'll engage businesses that operate vehicle fleets, introduce our telematics and fleet management solutions, qualify potential customers, and schedule appointments for our Account Executives.

  • Build rapport and establish credibility with business decision-makers.
  • Ask discovery questions to understand customer needs and identify opportunities.
  • Handle objections confidently and professionally.
  • Qualify leads and schedule meetings for the closing sales team.
  • Follow up with prospects and nurture relationships throughout the sales process.
  • Maintain accurate CRM records, including call notes, customer interactions, and follow-up activities.
  • Coordinate meetings between prospects and the sales team.
  • Effectively manage your sales pipeline to ensure no opportunities are missed.
  • Meet and exceed daily, weekly, and monthly activity and appointment targets.

Requirements

  • Previous experience as a Sales Development Representative (SDR), Business Development Representative (BDR), Appointment Setter, Lead Generator, or in an outbound sales role.
  • Experience making high volumes of outbound cold calls.
  • Excellent verbal and written English communication skills with a fluent, neutral accent.
  • Strong relationship-building and communication skills.
  • Confident speaking with business decision-makers over the phone.
  • Target-driven with a positive, resilient attitude.
  • Strong organisational and time management skills.
  • Experience using CRM systems to manage leads and sales activities.
  • Ability to work independently in a remote environment.
  • Reliable internet connection and a professional home office setup.
  • Experience in SaaS, telematics, fleet management, or B2B technology sales is advantageous but not required.

  1. Comfortable working U.S. hours
  2. Remote work from home
