Sales Development Representative - Japan

About the Role

As a Sales Development Representative, you will research potential clients, connect with and educate prospects, and qualify leads. You will do this through outreach in the form of cold calls, emails, or social networking with the purpose of scheduling demos for your Account Executive.

If you come from a non-tech sales background (such as car sales, insurance sales, phone sales, logistics sales, or similar) or a technical background (cybersecurity, computer science, IT, or similar) and are excited to take a next step into a tech sales career... we'd love to have you apply!
