Job Description

Flexa is the platform that enables companies to get discovered by top talent for what makes them unique. We have over 2.5 million users searching for their next company using our granular EVP filters (think "flexible hours" "equal parental leave" "work from anywhere schemes" "LGBTQ+ representation" etc.) and work with companies all over the world, from Multiverse to Microsoft.

There isn’t a single person at Flexa who doesn’t feel passionate about what we are building, and we hope that our social impact shines through in our own culture as well as our product.

The role 🙋🏻‍♀️

Flexa’s sales team plays a pivotal role in driving our growth and delivering an exceptional service to our users and customers. You’ll be joining a growing company of 17 where you can contribute to many “firsts” and work with us on our mission; to get every company discovered for what makes them unique. Now, we are looking for an SDR to join our sales team.

There is a high level of collaboration between other teams to execute our growth strategy. Responsible for prospecting and qualifying new opportunities, you will own the inbound and outbound sales engine. We’re looking for a hard-working sales professional who thrives in an autonomous environment. It’s your opportunity to join a highly motivated bunch of people where you can drive significant impact and have a load of fun along the way!

The key attributes that we will be looking for in applicants 🔑

  • Previous experience with involvement in the full sales lifecycle, with a proven track record of successful conversions from prospect to sale in SaaS or HR/Recruitment industries

  • You encourage a collaborative and positive work environment; whether you’re working remotely or on-site

  • Hunger and drive to build and own your sales pipeline - we need someone who wants to hit targets as quickly as possible. You will be rewarded for this, and given increasing responsibility as you achieve your goals

  • Comfortable with prospecting businesses of all sizes and being tenacious in knocking down their doors

  • Creativity to think outside of the box when it comes to selling Flexa

  • Being a do-er; we’re a startup and want people who can roll their sleeves up and get things done in a time-sensitive setting

Some nice-to-haves ✅

Our ideal candidate would also match at least a few of the criteria below. However, please don't be put off from applying if you don't match all of the below criteria. If you'd be brilliant at this role, please apply anyway. 

  • You have a network in the world of Talent Acquisition / Human Resources

  • Experience in a start-up would be highly advantageous, but by no means essential

What can we offer you? 🎁

  • This is an exciting opportunity to learn quickly in an environment that will support you while giving you the freedom to shape the role and our future.
  • A generous commission package. We want you to know you’re valued for the work you put in.
  • Progression. We're a startup and an agile one at that! This role has the potential to progress quickly and influence what the Flexa product looks and feels like. We hire brilliant people and want to create an environment, and role, in which you will thrive.
  • Work wherever you want and enjoy a 4.5-day week! We meet once a month, for a co-working day in our office in London and a team activity, drinks, and dinner. The office is available to use as much (or as little) as you like outside of that. 
  • An awesome team that wants to enjoy work and each other's company.
  • WFA scheme - 45 days of working abroad and company shutdown periods; so you can work how and where you want to.
  • A culture that cares about output, not presenteeism. You will be given autonomy from day one, but we will always be here to help and guide you.
  • Employee share options scheme.

We are a fast-growth startup, so while we offer a lot of flexibility, we move fast and get a lot done in a short space of time. Flexibility is a two way street and some weeks will be busier than others - we reward and recognise hard work, and Flexa is a place where you can truly develop and progress your career.

We believe that a flexible working environment is a more inclusive working environment, and we are committed to making sure that Flexa is as inclusive as possible, so please never hesitate to talk to us about your wishes, needs, and circumstances.
