- Comfortable making cold calls, handling objections, and following up consistently with prospective clients.
- Strong written communication skills across email, SMS, and LinkedIn.
- Experience using a CRM system and maintaining accurate records.
- A proactive, organised, and results-driven approach to managing leads and sales activities.
- Reliable internet connection, a quiet home workspace, and the ability to work during Adelaide business hours.
Nice to Have
- Experience working with Australian or other Western B2B clients.
- Exposure to qualified services industries, particularly finance, legal, real estate, or related sectors.
- Familiarity with LinkedIn outreach, Sales Navigator, and email sequencing tools.
- Experience managing and following up leads generated through paid social media campaigns, particularly Meta ads.
What We're Looking For
- Fast and disciplined: Understands the importance of responding to leads quickly and follows a consistent routine.
- Resilient: Stays motivated through unanswered calls, follow-ups, and rejection.

- Coachable: Welcomes feedback and continuously looks for ways to improve.
- Sound judgement: Knows how to identify suitable prospects, qualify opportunities, and protect the Director's time.

Your performance targets will be established with you once you join the team, with expectations adjusted proportionately for part-time hours where applicable.
