About The Role:

We are seeking a Sales Associate to play a crucial role on the SpendHound team. As a Sales Associate, you will join the go-to-market team of this new division and assist in acquiring new clients. Your responsibilities will include qualifying and following up with inbound leads and marketing-qualified opportunities, and proactively generating leads through outbound activity. You are then responsible for managing a full sales cycle and closing those new business opportunities.

This role is part of a new start-up team, but with the resources of a larger company. As such, you will gain experience in an earlier-stage sales environment with frequent iteration and the opportunity to take on additional responsibilities outside the general scope of your work.

This position offers an exciting opportunity for growth and advancement within a brand-new segment for the company.

In this role, you’ll gain experience in:

Running a full sales cycle from initial outreach all the way to close

Working on both inbound and outbound opportunities

Selling to C-level executives

Working in a startup environment, you’ll be part of a small team going to market on a totally new product

You are likely to succeed if:

You have 2+ years in a SaaS, AI, or Fintech high-velocity sales environment, either as a top-performing SDR/BDR or Account Executive (At least 1 year of selling and 1 year of acquisition)

You have strong interpersonal skills and enjoy spending a lot of time on phone and video calls

You have strong email communication skills

You’re comfortable working in a dynamic environment where things can change quickly

You’re organized and can manage a large pipeline of opportunities

What We Offer:

Our compensation package includes comprehensive benefits, perks, and a competitive salary:

We care about your personal life, and we mean it. We offer flexible work hours, flexible vacation, a generous 401K match, parental leave, team events, wellness budget, learning reimbursement, and more!

Your growth at YipitData is determined by the impact that you are making, not by tenure, unnecessary facetime, or office politics. Everyone at YipitData is empowered to learn, self-improve, and master their skills in an environment focused on ownership, respect, and trust. See more on our high-impact, high-opportunity work environment above!

Base Salary + Variable Compensation: The annual base salary range for this position is anticipated to be $70,000. This role is eligible for variable compensation, with on-target earnings (OTE) of up to $136,000. Final compensation may be determined by a number of factors, including, but not limited to, the applicant’s experience, knowledge, skills, abilities, and internal team benchmarks.

This role may be performed fully remotely within the United States. Please note that our US headquarters are located in NYC. If the remote work is performed outside of these offices, income may be subject to New York State tax withholding.

We are committed to equal employment opportunity regardless of race, color, ancestry, religion, sex, national origin, sexual orientation, age, marital status, disability, gender, gender identity or expression, or veteran status. We are proud to be an equal opportunity employer.
