We’re looking for a switched on, eager to learn graduate, to join as a Sales intern - initially for 6 months with the potential of becoming permanent. You’ll be forming a bridge between marketing and sales, supporting our teams across Japan, America, France and Germany.

A really interesting role, where you'll focus on researching a number of select clients, understanding what they do and the problems they need solving - helping to build a profile for the sales team. You'll also work alongside the marketing team to help them on who to target and on building their campaigns.

Day to day tasks include:

1. Outbound calling of prospective (warm) customers to gather intel and qualify potential leads for sales to follow.
2. Work with the sales team to target key accounts, determining where to focus effort.
3. Help to build templates, scripts, and reporting processes to improve efficiency and ease of effort.
4. Research customers on the internet and other sources to capture info/intel.
5. Build/maintain data on potential customers to capture knowledge.
6. Lead follow up.
7. Assist with other sales efforts as necessary.

The ideal intern’s personality and qualifications:

1. Educated to degree level – STEM type degrees would be a bonus, but we’re open to any discipline.
2. Interest in technology and an eagerness to work in sales.
3. Enthusiastic, energetic, and hungry – not afraid to pick up the phone.
4. Driven and self-motivated.
5. Charismatic, articulate, and well-presented.
6. Comfortable working autonomously, being self-driven, in a high-tech environment.
7. Project confidence and positive energy.
8. Ability to talk other languages is a bonus!

What are the perks of interning at this company?

This position offers the opportunity for career-building experience with growth opportunities. It’s an ideal entry-level professional position with a growing international tech company.

3. Potential to travel to other international offices (and potential to relocate if desired!).
4. Brilliant career development, likely routes include moving into marketing, pre-sales, or sales.
5. You'll be joining a company that is part of the fourth industrial revolution - the internet of things. This company is well ahead of the game, established in 2002!
