JOB RESPONSIBILITIES

Responsibilities

As a Sales Executive, you will be a key player in their growth journey. You will work proactively to prospect and schedule meetings with new potential customers. With the phone as your primary tool and a clear goal in sight, your task is to create interest, open doors, and lay the foundation for new business.

Initially, you will focus on scheduling meetings for their more senior salespeople and accompany them to learn the sales pitch, the industry, and the customers' needs. Once you have scheduled a number of meetings and demonstrated your ability to handle the dialogue, you will gradually take over and drive your own customer meetings.

You will work systematically with a defined customer base and have close collaboration with their marketing team to engage customers through multiple channels. The work mainly takes place from the office, where you will become part of an engaged, competitive, and energetic sales team that enjoys having fun together and supports each other in daily tasks. For the right person, this is an entry-level role with a clear development plan and opportunities to grow into a more senior role or take on responsibilities as a team lead.

WE ARE LOOKING FOR YOU WHO

Has previous experience in sales, where the phone has been used as the primary tool
Has some form of industry experience with insight and understanding of our customers' daily lives (e.g., worked at a construction company, wholesaler, or supplier, or been an electrician, installer, or similar)
Is fluent in Swedish, both spoken and written

It is advantageous if you have experience with SaaS solutions.

To succeed in the role:

We believe you are a wonderful person with a good reputation in the industry. You have a positive attitude towards life and work in general, which will make you a good fit for our current team. You are driven by relationship-building sales and always strive to exceed yesterday's results. You put the team before yourself and are willing to take initiative, working systematically to achieve your goals.
