About the Team:
- TRM's EMEA Sales Team has a fast paced, positive and open culture. Team members are given a high degree of responsibility and autonomy so that they can decide the best way to deliver against goals. The team works positively together and you can expect a lot of help and support from both your team mates and your manager - who tries to make himself super available to assist you with questions, problems or at customer meetings. The team gets together for calls regularly including a weekly team call, a weekly pipeline call, a weekly forecast call and fortnightly pod calls. In addition TRM runs regular "all hands" and "found AMA" calls so that everyone feels connected to the wider team and mission. Slack is main tool that is at the center of all asynchronous and synchronous communication.
- The EMEA Sales team works UK and CET time. However there might be some requirement for later calls with East and West Coast US when working on complex opportunities.
Learn about TRM Speed in this position:
- TRM receives an urgent lead from a prospect at 3:30PM on a Friday, they would like to speak to somebody in detail about their requirements, TRM’s product and would like to see a demo today.
- Within your first month you will need to profile and stack rank all prospects and customers in your territory and start an outreach program yourself and with your SDR all whilst completing TRM’s onboarding and training.
- TRM receives a customer RFx late from a partner. It looks perfect for us, but we only have 3 days to respond. Rally your virtual team’s resources to provide a high quality, detailed response that satisfies the customer.
