Lots of tech companies disrupt. But, many fail when they try to scale. We're different. CockroachDB makes it easier for companies to build and scale apps. This is how and why we're helping some of the most innovative companies on the planet. We tackle problems head-on and focus on solutions that create lasting impact.
Because when our customers win, we all win.
The Role
Corporate Sales Representatives (CSRs) at Cockroach Labs are responsible for helping companies get started with our database-as-a-service offerings, CockroachDB Serverless & CockroachDB Dedicated. This role will focus on both inbound & outbound activity within a defined territory and will allow you to leverage your exceptional communication skills and passion for customer service. To be eligible in this role, you must be a native German speaker and you must be based in London, UK.
You Will
- Be responsible for driving all sales motions (prospect-to-close) for a defined revenue tier. This will include responding to lead generation efforts, conducting demos, developing customer relationships, and closing the opportunity.
- Lead compelling presentations of CockroachDB’s product and vision to a broad range of audiences from C-level executives to individual contributors
- Provide timely and accurate forecasts and clear visibility on sales and revenue performance by actively handling your pipeline of opportunities
- Manage strong working relationships with internal partners, including sales engineering, sales development & customer success.
The Expectations
In your first 30 days, you will learn about CockroachDB and will be able to pitch the product proficiently. We believe that it is necessary for you to build this foundation so you can successfully engage with existing accounts and grasp the sales strategy. Upon completion of your first month, you will have built cross-functional relationships and will have started building your strategy for account penetration.
After three months, you'll have a sound plan for account strategy and mapping. You have started building relationships with several leaders across your region and are beginning to understand their challenges and how CockroachDB can help solve them.
After six months, you will have at least 5x your quota in the pipeline and will have several active POCs in process.
