  • Be skilled at value based selling. Clearly communicate to your book of agents the value & strength of our number one position measured by demand, content, lead and transaction share.

  • Identify sales opportunities in both our existing client portfolio and through active prospecting, creating reliable forecasts and leading both short and long sales cycles.

  • Meet and surpass all sales targets and performance metrics on a monthly and quarterly basis.

  • Act as the lead point of contact for all matters related to your designated accounts in the Munster region.

  • At least 5 years of online or B2B sales experience.

  • Excellent relationship skills and a proactive approach to managing accounts.

  • Experience utilising tools like Salesforce and Tableau is advantageous

  • Demonstrated experience using data-driven insights to manage difficult pricing conversations with customers.

  • A strong sales ability with a consistent track record of hitting targets. 

  • You should love a challenge, working in target-driven environments, and succeeding as part of a team. 

  • Someone who is comfortable speaking to C-Level customers on the phone or at face to face meetings.

  • A talent for developing positive relationships and able to work across many different parts of the organisation to get things done.

  • Excellent communication skills along with the ability to collaborate with varied functions.

  • Self-motivation and the ability to work on your own initiative.

  • A natural competitor and not afraid to fail fast. You understand the importance of being part of a team, working hard, having fun while doing it and not afraid of learning new things. Be a phenomenal teammate

  • Enthusiastic and thrive on being part of a collaborative environment. You care about the culture and environment where you work and you plan to take ownership of the time you spend with us to truly make an impact.

Benefits - what you can expect

  • Our goal is to maintain a culture where people look forward to work – whether in our centrally located office in Dublin or working from home, which is optional for all employees.

  • We do that by making Distilled a place you'll be listened to and trusted to do your job. Where you can have fun, learn and feel appreciated. And where you get focused career development, growth and progression opportunities.

  • We understand that the tools you have to do your job can make a difference too. So while MacBooks are our standard, we’re happy to get you the equipment you need to do your job.

  • We want you to feel confident that this is the right place for you, your career, your wellbeing and your future.

  • Above all, your health and wellbeing are at the forefront of how we build the business. That means looking after you while you're here and later in life. So you'll receive life insurance, fully-paid healthcare and a 5% contribution towards your pension.
