Role Description
This is a full-time, ideally Sydney or Melbourne-based (but remote/work from home) role for a Business Development Manager. You’ll operate remotely with an ability to travel to secure new sales as needed.
You will be responsible for engaging our existing network, using your own contacts in sports, education or businesses requiring online protection from abuse, and engaging new potential customers and partners.
You will feel strongly about wanting to prevent online abuse, educate on eSafety or bring innovative technical solutions to the widest audience. You'll be confident talking to senior executives, leading athletes and clubs, and schools.
You will have a demonstrated history of securing sales, preferably in the tech industry or in sports, eSafety or education. We want someone to convert our existing leads but you will also use your own network to generate new business.
One thing is for sure - you'll be a motivated, self-starter that handles all aspects of the job.
You will have realistic KPls to achieve based on our success to date. We are a tech start-up, so expect this role to be part sales, part training, part presenting, part marketing and part admin. You will have a supportive team alongside you, from our technical experts through to our advocates, ambassadors and a proactive, team-oriented leadership.
In return, you'll receive a competiive base salary with uncapped sales incentives, the potential for company shares and a pathway to the CEO role.
We need your help to spread the word to Australia's clubs, leagues, universities, associations and communities that it's time to end online abuse
