What you'll do 🏡💻

Due to internal promotion, we are looking for a Dutch speaking Sales Development Representative (SDR) who will support our a team of 3 Account Executives for the Netherlands, by partnering with them to map the market, understand target companies and buyer personas, and hopefully convert cold outreach into genuine interest from companies who are viable Puzzel customers.

You will:

• Engage with potential business customers through a variety of channels like LinkedIn, Phone, Email + other automated outreach tools to gain their initial interest and book demos for the Sales Executives, who will then go into more detail and hopefully close the deal!

• Learn how to sell AI driven technology

• MEDDPICC (Metrics, Identified Pain and Identifying Potential Champion) qualification combined with Challenger Sales methodology, to ensure that the prospects you are engaging with have the potential to convert into a closed deal.

• Understand our ICP (Ideal Customer Profile) and Go-To-Market strategy, to ensure you are targeting the right prospects.

• Partner closely with Sales Executives to create joint account plans, product demonstrations and close revenue for the company.

• Collaborate with Marketing to nurture leads through events, industry reports and outbound content.

• You should be a driven and confident individual, willing to learn from your setbacks. Previous B2B experience including outbound cold-calling is a must for this hire, even if not purely in a BDR/SDR role.

• You must be resilient and target and/or money motivated, but the rewards are plentiful, as is the opportunity for career development.

The must haves 💪

• You must have native-level fluency in Dutch + proficiency in English

• Driven, money-motivated and intelligent

• Commercial experience in a b2b setting, with experience and proven success in cold-calling and prospecting, ideally selling a software solution.

The nice to haves ➕➕➕

• CCaaS, CX or relatable SaaS industry experience

• SDR/BDR/Outbound B2B Sales experience

• Co-piloting SDR AI agents or AI platforms

• Groove or other cadence management systems

• Cognism, Hunter or similar scraping tools

• Salesforce

• LinkedIn Sales Navigator

We will, however, consider those with limited experience with the right attitude and traits.

Location 🌍

This role can be based either in the Netherlands, where we would ideally look for someone to be based around the Amsterdam/ Utrecht/ Hague/ Haarlem area OR in the Greater London area, since our SDR Director and 2 UK SDRs are based there.

It’s important to highlight we work remote-first in the Netherlands - we are very flexible with hybrid working, but we’d like to see you spending time with the team where possible, particularly as the Dutch entity grows. We have passes to Regus offices which give you access 2 days/week to any of their offices!

In London, the team tend to go in 2-3 days per week to spend time together.

What’s In it for You? 💰

• Competitive salary + (uncapped) commission.

• Flexible, hybrid approach to working; split your time between the office and home

• You get to be part of a fun, driven and supportive team

• Gift on your birthday

• Annual Summer and Christmas parties

• Excellent development opportunities and a great company culture

What to expect from the interview process ❔

• Screening call with Talent Acquisition

• 1st interview with SDR Director

• 2nd interview with wider commercial/marketing function

• Final panel interview with SDR Director, Sales Director + 1 more

Puzzel Values 🎯

• Built on Trust – trust is an intrinsic Nordic value, upon which Puzzel has been built. We trust each other and our customers and partners trust us.

• Stronger Together – working together in a genuinely collaborative way, with a shared purpose, we have an empowered organisation that is better equipped to delight customers and partners.

• Stay Hungry – have a continuous hunger to raise our game, innovate and be the best we can be professionally.

Diversity & Inclusion 🌍

We want everyone at Puzzel to be their true, authentic selves at work irrespective of nationality, race, ethnicity, religion, sexual orientation, gender identity, physical ability, age, or economic background.

Whilst we are proud to already have a diverse workforce from across the globe, we are aware that things could always be improved – for example, we currently have a ratio of female 26:74 male employees, which whilst not uncommon for the tech industry (average in SaaS is 26% female), it’s far from ideal. So, what are we doing to improve this?

• Our Global Leadership Team (C-suite) has shifted from 100% male at the start of 2023 to 4 men: 5 women.

• We have increased our % of female hires from 23.6% in 2021 to 38.5% in 2023 and 41% in 2024!

• We are partnering with the likes of Flexa, who have significantly higher-than-average talent pools of candidates from diverse backgrounds.

• We are working with State Employment initiatives in Norway and Sweden to bring candidates through internship/apprenticeship routes and are investigating similar initiatives in the UK and Bulgaria.

• By raising awareness and transparency, we are hoping to further attract a diverse workforce.

We are continuously striving to foster an inclusive and diverse environment, where everyone is celebrated for who they are. If there is anything we can do to support you in the interview process, or beyond, please let us know.
