A fair and transparent recruitment process

We know that it is just as important that you choose us as the other way around. We believe it to be crucial to cultivate a culture where you feel you belong – this starts already in the recruitment process. Therefore, to be fair and transparent, we want to present the criteria you are assessed by if you are curious about joining our scale-up journey.

1. Commercial Sales Savvy : Building partnerships and collaborations with mid-sized enterprises is a challenging endeavor that demands patience, commitment, and going above and beyond. It is essential to establish trustworthy relationships with diverse stakeholders and effectively balance their varying needs and agendas while maintaining credibility. These competencies are typically acquired through relevant experience in technology sales, account management, or business development roles. Having expertise in selling Cloud (SaaS) solutions within Data Security, Backup and Storage, or infrastructure solutions, as well as a pre-existing customer network in the UK region, can provide additional advantages in this field. In-depth knowledge of M365 and Entra ID customers would be a great advantage.

2. A structured approach to SaaS Business Development : The role of the UK sales team is to acquire new Keepit customers in the market by systematically analyzing the account to sell to the right decision makers. Therefore, being able to successfully gain new clients and consistently meet or exceed sales targets demonstrates the strategic thinking and dedication that will be essential to this role.

3. Virtual Sales : We are highly reliant on being able to build trustworthy and robust work relations using Microsoft Teams, Zoom, or over the phone. It is essential for candidates to be comfortable and effective in using virtual platforms as a sales channel and that you can appear, authentic, convincing and gain people's trust without being physically present.

4. Entrepreneurial spirit : We are passionate about winning. However, we are also passionate about our workplace and the mindset we cultivate. We are reaching for the stars, and to get there, we need people who think outside the box and are passionate about fostering collaboration in a great work environment. Therefore, we are searching for AE's who, like us, are being motivated by building a fair and fun work environment at Keepit.
