Keep the CRM accurate and up to date with call outcomes, pipeline stages and next steps
Feed market insights and objection patterns back to the team to sharpen messaging and targeting
Follow data protection, compliance and call guidelines at all times
Ideal Candidate

Proven outbound sales or business development experience , ideally in B2B phone acquisition or partner acquisition
Available during core hours, Monday to Friday, 9:00–17:00 CET
Confident building rapport with independent sales reps, managing directors and sales leaders over the phone
