Company Description

Organizations everywhere struggle under the crushing costs and complexities of “solutions” that promise to simplify their lives. To create a better experience for their customers and employees. To help them grow. Software is a choice that can make or break a business. Create better or worse experiences. Propel or throttle growth. Business software has become a blocker instead of ways to get work done.

There’s another option. Freshworks. With a fresh vision for how the world works.

At Freshworks, we build uncomplicated service software that delivers exceptional customer and employee experiences. Our enterprise-grade solutions are powerful, yet easy to use, and quick to deliver results. Our people-first approach to AI eliminates friction, making employees more effective and organizations more productive. Over 72,000 companies, including Bridgestone, New Balance, Nucor, S&P Global, and Sony Music, trust Freshworks’ customer experience (CX) and employee experience (EX) software to fuel customer loyalty and service efficiency. And, over 4,500 Freshworks employees make this possible, all around the world.

Fresh vision. Real impact. Come build it with us.

Manage and prioritize the inbound lead pipeline to consistently meet and exceed quarterly and annual sales quotas.

Full Sales Cycle Management :

  • Navigate complex organizational structures and identify all relevant decision-makers and influencers.
  • Understand the competitive landscape and articulate our differentiating factors effectively.
  • Collaboration & Communication :

    Collaborate closely with the Marketing team to provide a tight feedback loop on lead quality and campaign effectiveness.

    Work with Sales Development, Product, and Customer Success teams to ensure a seamless prospect and customer experience.

  • Inbound Lead Conversion Expertise :  Skill in rapidly engaging, qualifying, and converting a high volume of marketing-qualified leads.
  • Consultative Selling & Discovery :  Strong ability to conduct deep discovery, actively listen, understand complex business challenges, and articulate value-based solutions rather than just features.
  • Compelling Presentation & Demonstration :  Exceptional ability to deliver engaging and tailored virtual product demonstrations and presentations that resonate with diverse North American audiences, including C-level executives.
  • Objection Handling & Negotiation :  Proven skill in anticipating, addressing, and overcoming objections effectively, leading to successful negotiations and deal closures.
  • Pipeline Management & Forecasting :  Strong proficiency in managing a sales pipeline, accurately forecasting revenue, and utilizing CRM tools (, Salesforce, HubSpot) to track progress and report on performance.
  • Communication Excellence :  Outstanding verbal and written communication skills in English, with a strong understanding of North American business etiquette and cultural nuances.
  • Resilience & Persistence :  High level of tenacity and a positive attitude, with a strong drive to succeed in a target-driven environment.
  • Self-Motivation & Autonomy :  Ability to work independently, manage time effectively, and take initiative to drive results without constant supervision, often during hours that align with the North American market.
  • Adaptability & Learning Agility :  Quick learner, capable of adapting to new technologies, market changes, and evolving sales strategies.
  • Tech Savvy :  Comfortable with SaaS platforms and proficient in using sales engagement tools (, SalesLoft, , and CRM systems.
  • Desired Skills :

  • Experience selling within specific industries relevant to the North American market (, FinTech, HR Tech, Healthcare).
