Business & Sales Intern

About the Role

"The Closer" is not a typical internship. As a Founding team member, you'll drive our go-to-market strategy, from lead generation to customer conversion. You'll work directly with the founder/founding team to turn our product story into real business.

Responsibilities

• Own the top of our funnel: manage leads from demo requests, case study downloads, beta access, and Incentive Calculator sign-ups in our CRM (Bigin)
• Run the pipeline: qualify inbound leads, follow up, and move them from first touch to a booked demo
• Find the right people: research target accounts and decision-makers (CFOs, CHROs, Sales Leaders, RevOps & Rewards teams) to initiate conversations
• Tell the story: translate technical differentiators into compelling business pitches using case studies, blogs, and the Incentive Calculator
• Support demos & conversations: join discovery calls and live demos to understand incentive-design pain points
• Conduct market & competitive research: build our ideal customer profile and track industry trends in Incentive Compensation Management
• Create content: assist in writing case studies, blog posts, and sales collateral

Requirements

• Freshers/ Final or Pre-Final year candidates from any academic background
• Strong business acumen and communication skills

Qualifications

• Understand numbers: commission math, ROI, and P&L analysis
• Tell a story: explain technical ideas in plain business language
• Hunter mentality: proactively research accounts and initiate conversations
• Detail-oriented: maintain a clean CRM and well-run pipeline
• Go-getter attitude: identify and implement better solutions
