What You Will Do:

Design, develop and execute a robust outbound lead generation strategy to expand the company's customer base and establish a strong market presence.

Conduct thorough research to identify potential B2B leads, leveraging various sources including online research, industry events, social media, and networking.

Craft compelling outbound messages and communications to engage prospects and convert to customers.

Qualify leads through effective communication, understanding their pain points, challenges, and needs.

Nurture leads through strategic follow-ups, providing relevant information and insights to move them closer to conversion.

Collaborate closely with the Sales Manager to ensure a seamless handover of qualified leads for further engagement and a smooth transition from lead to customer, facilitating successful sales conversions.

Maintain accurate and up-to-date records of lead interactions and activities.

Provide insights and feedback to marketing and product teams to refine messaging and positioning based on prospect interactions.

To thrive in this role, you must have:

Bachelor's degree in Business, Marketing, Communications, or a related discipline.

At least 3+ yrs of lead generation experience within the B2B SaaS environment, with a focus on outbound prospecting.

Results-oriented mindset with the drive to achieve and exceed sales targets.

Prior experience demonstrating ownership and initiative in taking charge of lead qualification and nurturing processes.

Proven adaptability and resilience in a dynamic and evolving startup environment.

Strong communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to engage and build rapport with prospects.

Experience in making data driven decisions and conducting thorough research to drive lead generation & prospecting efforts.

Ability to wear similar hats and collaborate effectively across various departments.

Previous experience in the AI/ML, data, logistics, shipping, or related industries is good to have.

You will be given very high levels of ownership and will be able to see the impact of your work on the customers as well as the company financials in a very direct way.
