About the role

Everything you buy today was shipped. Freight brokers charge 20-30% commission on every shipment. Zerobroker is transforming the $800 billion trucking industry and making freight shipping broker-free.

Zerobroker is an all-in-one operating system for businesses to manage their end-to-end logistics. With one click, businesses ship, finance and pay. It is as simple as buying items on Amazon today.

We are YC backed and growing rapidly. We are looking for AEs who will help us to grow even faster. If you think you can help us, we’d love to hear from you.

--Please note this position is located at our office in San Francisco (we are willing to offer relocation)--

About You

We want those who thrive with a pioneer spirit as they stare down impossible challenges.

‌We‌ ‌look for‌ ‌people‌ who want ‌to‌ ‌share‌ ‌our‌ ‌vision‌, ‌make an outsized impact on the world, and who are passionate about building incredible customer experiences, with a proven track record as an SDR and AE in a high-growth, fast paced environment.

You’ll be building our customer base from scratch, and building long-term strategic relationships with them. You have entrepreneurial instinct and can help the CEO and product team to identify patterns that help us understand where to pivot. You love collaborating and helping the rest of the team be their best.

What you'll be doing:

  • You’ll be an integral part of helping us develop sales processes and strategies to expand our customer base.
  • Building an outbound engine and helping us develop and refine our sales processes, managing deals from lead → opportunity → close.
  • Digging in with prospective customers to learn about their challenges, opportunities, perspectives, and priorities.
  • Develop a deep understanding of Zerobroker- our offerings and competitive positioning, and play a key role in establishing and nurturing long-term partnerships with customers.
  • Be a critical member of the revenue organization and influence our story / value proposition, go-to-market strategy and offerings.
  • Develop and execute data-driven sales processes (e.g. pipeline management and forecasting discipline)
  • Develop strong advocacy with key internal partner teams such as Legal, Finance and Product to accelerate growth velocity and margin.

We are looking for:

If you don’t match all of these, please still apply and tell us why you’d be a good fit.

  • 2+ years of sales experience with time spent as an SDR and AE
  • High performer, consistently exceeding your quota
  • Demonstrated skills in managing and influencing decision-makers and key stakeholders.
  • You are a strong performer in outbound sales and can execute a flawless discovery just as easily as you can navigate the prospect to Closed Won.
  • Strong communicator
  • Go-getter who can navigate ambiguity, ask questions, and help us get better every day.
  • CRM management experience
  • Experience in the transportation technology space (preferred)
  • Startup experience at a fast-paced company (preferred)

As ‌a‌ ‌startup‌ ‌company,‌ ‌we‌ ‌don’t‌ ‌limit‌ ‌our‌ ‌team‌ ‌members‌. ‌Instead, we set out ‌to‌ ‌discover‌ ‌their‌ ‌strongest‌ ‌sides.‌ ‌We understand that your skillset may be stronger in some areas than others, but we expect you to contribute in every step of building an outstanding customer experience. ‌You‌ ‌should ‌also‌ ask for ‌help‌ ‌from‌ ‌any‌ team‌ ‌member‌ ‌whenever‌ ‌you‌ ‌need‌ ‌it.‌ ‌We‌ ‌don’t‌ ‌look‌ ‌for‌ ‌people‌ ‌who‌ ‌can‌ ‌do‌ ‌one ‌particular‌ ‌job.‌ ‌We‌ ‌look for‌ ‌people‌ ‌with‌ ‌whom‌ ‌we‌ ‌want‌ ‌to‌ ‌share‌ ‌our‌ ‌vision‌ ‌and‌ ‌lives.‌ ‌Join‌ ‌our‌ ‌team‌ ‌early‌ ‌and‌ ‌see‌ ‌how‌ ‌high and‌ ‌far‌ ‌you‌ ‌can‌ ‌go!‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌

Let’s make the impossible possible together. Come join us!
