  • Proficiency with ZoomInfo, Sales Navigator, HubSpot, or similar tools
  • Proven track record of above-target performance and commitment in previous roles
  • Resilient in challenging and fast-paced environments
  • Exceptional written and verbal communication skills in English, with the ability to influence at all levels
  • Ability to work in an onsite environment
