ROLE SUMMARY

Most of our new business arrives through VC referrals and inbound marketing. Your job is to guide each startup's interest in Burkland through our sales pipeline, from first conversation to signed engagement.

ESSENTIAL DUTIES & RESPONSIBILITIES

- Manage a high volume of inbound leads from founders and C-suite executives at VC-backed startups, moving each opportunity through the sales pipeline.

- Build and nurture relationships with prospects, existing clients, and the VC partners who refer them to us.

- Partner with Burkland's CFOs, accountants, tax specialists, and HR team to scope engagements and hand off new clients smoothly.

- Keep the CRM accurate and current so pipeline, forecasts, and follow-ups stay on track.

- Stay informed on industry trends, market dynamics, and competitor activity in the startup services space.

- Represent Burkland at industry events, networking opportunities, and startup conferences.

MINIMUM REQUIREMENTS / QUALIFICATIONS

- 2–4 years of sales experience, ideally selling services to startups, founders, or finance leaders.

- A bachelor's degree in Finance, Accounting, Business, or a related field, and/or professional experience in those areas.

- Enough fluency in finance and accounting to talk credibly with founders and CFOs about their needs.

- A proven track record of converting leads and closing deals.

- Exceptional communication, negotiation, and relationship-building skills.

- Strong organization: you manage your calendar and pipeline with discipline.

- A strategic, analytical approach to problem-solving.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
