Qualify inbound leads against BANT criteria and route them to the right AE. Follow up on webinar and trade show leads within 24 hours. Handle common objections on the phone ("we already have a vendor", "just send me an email").

What we're looking for:

1+ years in sales, customer service or another customer-facing job. Comfortable on the phone with strangers all day. Resilience. Most calls end in a no. Must be authorised to work in the US without sponsorship.
