At Hotjar, we’re creating Product Experience Insights software for digital product teams. We help show how users behave and what they feel strongly about, so product teams can deliver real value, fast.

Reporting to the Sales Lead, we’re looking for creative, curious, and driven sales professionals to join our team and help more SMBs and mid-market businesses build better experiences for their users while growing their business.

If you have experience selling to inbound prospects and you enjoy working in a hyper-growth environment, this is a rare opportunity to join an early-stage, customer-centered, and 100% distributed team.

  • Understand the needs and challenges of prospective customers by taking a consultative approach to selling.
  • Conduct consultative calls and present webinars for prospects.
  • Assist prospects with the procurement process in particular with their legal and security requirements.
  • Work with technical members of the Hotjar team to ensure consistency, clarity, and accuracy in all recommendations provided to current and prospective customers.
  • Communicate prospective customer needs to product managers and product teams to close the feedback loop.
  • Help refine the self-service experience for leads that fall outside of the sales touch.

Requirements:

  • 2+ years of sales experience, ideally SaaS and quota-carrying.
  • You are technically minded. You can develop a deep knowledge of how Hotjar works, allowing you to speak clearly to customers and communicate their needs to our team.
  • You are experienced with taking sales calls, diligently following up, and closing deals.
  • Enthusiasm to adapt, learn via coaching, and contribute to an evolving sales team’s strategy.
  • Experience with Salesforce or an equivalent tool.
  • Desire to work in a respectful, transparent, and collaborative work environment, following Hotjar’s company valuesculture and ways of working.
  • Must submit to a background check confidentially processed by our third-party.
