We are working exclusively with our client to find an Account Executive .
About:
Our client is a recruitment software designed as an end-to-end solution for temporary workers and their employers - anything from shift booking, timesheets, availability, compliance and P&L.
The entire workflow for managing shift workers is driven through one platform, leading to higher profits for temporary agencies, easy admin for employers and a convenient way for temp workers to stay on top of shifts.
Following enormous growth through a very lean sales team (Founder-led sales, 1 AE and 2 SDRs), it's now time to bring in a high-performing Account Executive to hunt new business and grow existing accounts!
Key Highlights:
* Born out of necessity: spun out of a 500-person recruitment agency specialising in temporary workers that have seen the challenge first hand.
* Approaching £2m ARR through Founder-led sales and a 99.5% renewal rate across their client base.
* Huge TAM - clients range from temporary recruitment agencies to large-scale temporary worker employers such as The Nation Rail (currently spending £250k per year). This role has a primary focus on selling into temporary-worker recruitment agencies with an average deal value of £30k ARR.
* Strong pipeline generation through a combination of inbounds and self-generated outbound.
* Very strong ROI for clients. Agencies are reducing their admin costs and increasing their placement rates whilst employers are massively reducing costs involved with temporary worker management.
* Opportunity to work with the Founders to build a scalable and repeatable sales function.
The Role:
* Closing 5 and 6 figure deals with senior stakeholders in the mid-market to enterprise temporary recruitment agencies and large scale temporary-worker employers - this will be in verticals such as rail, healthcare, construction and education. You will be working on deals in the £10k - £250K+ ARR range.
* Ability to open new business opportunities using multi-channel outbound prospecting leveraging channels such as cold calling, emailing and LinkedIn.
* Executing the full sales cycle from open to close and increasing conversion rates through each stage by leveraging a known sales framework such as Challenger, SPIN and / or MEDDICC. This includes teaming with the CTO on more complex deals that involve technical details.
* Closely collaborating with the product teams to contribute to the product road map.
* Nurturing and developing future members of the sales team to make sure they are set up for success.
* Meeting and exceeding sales targets set by senior management. This includes quotas based around subscriptions and implementation.
* Keeping the CRM clean and up-to-date with the right deal and prospect information to allow for accurate pipeline management and forecasting.
* Attending relevant industry events and forums to increase brand exposure and generate new interest.
* Working closely with the Founders to continuously refine the sales function and build an effective sales system.
