Mission
We are on a mission to revolutionise customer success. You are someone who will identify, approach, and nurture Planhat’s prospective customers, setting them up for long-term success. Whether working outbound or inbound, you will create a personalised and seamless process, from initial awareness through to discovery call with our Account Executives.
Team
Our team are business-savvy, perceptive, and strategic. Within Planhat, we're the engine room that drives growth. For our prospective customers, we're the front-of-house, and all important first introduction to the company.
The BDR team are comfortable blending long-term thinking and short-term pragmatism, whether:
Identifying prospects: and conducting outreach through calls, emails, and LinkedIn
Building strong relationships: with Customer Success leaders across Europe
Qualifying, then prioritising: the needs and aspirations of executives across different industries, seniority levels, and company sizes
Laying the groundwork: for customer discovery calls for Account Executives with prospects (SMB and Enterprise) across the Benelux region
Our existing team come from diverse backgrounds, but we share some common threads:
a proven track record of at least 12 months in B2B sales, SDR, BDR, or talent acquisition
a strong academic background, usually with stand out extra curricular achievements, such as NCAA D1 sports
a desire to take on a bigger challenge, and a 'no excuses' mindset
Competencies
This is not about ticking boxes, or tallying years of experience, it is something deeper than that.
Curiosity: Always learning, and learning quickly - whether it's about new prospects, our product, technology, client success, or the sales process. Be open to, and thrive on feedback.
Perceptive and focused: Alert to what people say. A knack for asking the right questions, and listening intently. Extraordinary communication, presentation, and interpersonal skills.
Results driven: Set clear goals and achieve them. Self-motivated to succeed, and succeed in the right way. Create relationships, and deals that last.
