Our flagship platform, WhatJobs?, actively engages millions of job seekers around the globe every minute. With ambitious expansion plans across Europe, Asia, North America, and South America, we are seeking high-performing sales talent to help take our brand to the next level.

Role Overview:

As a Senior Sales Executive, you will take ownership of driving new business across your designated territory. You'll operate independently in a high-performance, fully remote sales environment, using cutting-edge tools and techniques to attract and close digital recruitment clients. This is not an entry-level role -- we're looking for commercially minded professionals who can prospect, sell, and deliver value with minimal supervision.

Key Responsibilities:

Prospect, pitch, and close new business across recruitment agencies, job boards, and direct employers. Build and manage a hybrid book of new and existing clients. Create and execute outbound sales campaigns using Apollo, LinkedIn, email automation, and AI-driven prospecting tools. Analyze sales and performance data to monitor ROI and campaign outcomes. Maintain rigorous CRM hygiene and activity tracking in HubSpot. Provide weekly written updates and monthly KPI presentations to the leadership team.

Key Qualifications:

Minimum 2-5 years' experience in job board sales, digital media, or recruitment. Demonstrable ability to hit sales targets and manage commercial accounts. Strong understanding of metrics such as CPC, CPA, ROI. Proficiency in HubSpot and outbound platforms (Apollo, LinkedIn Sales Navigator). Native speaker of local language and fluent in English.

Personal Attributes:

Entrepreneurial, self-managing and highly motivated. Confident, persuasive communicator and negotiator. Analytical and organised, with strong attention to performance data. Proactive problem-solver with a natural sales instinct. Team player who thrives in a flexible, hybrid international environment.

Training and Development:

You'll receive onboarding and training from senior team members, access to sales collateral, pitch guidance, and regular support calls. At WhatJobs, we focus on helping sales talent develop rapidly and move up into more senior roles based on performance.

Benefits:

Competitive salary with high commission potential. Fully remote and asynchronous work environment. Exposure to a growing international brand with global reach. Access to top-tier tools including HubSpot, Apollo, and AI content generators. Strong internal support from marketing, product, and delivery teams. A direct impact role with real ownership.

Why WhatJobs?

Join us at a moment of significant global growth. With over 70 international markets active, WhatJobs is accelerating fast, and we want strong sales professionals along for the journey. We reward results, champion autonomy, and equip our team with the best tools available to win. If you're passionate about digital recruitment sales and want to work somewhere where your performance truly matters -- this is the opportunity.
