Who are we?
Hi there! We are Scout Talent, and our focus is talent acquisition management. Our mission is to See People First, and our vision is to connect people to grow companies, careers and communities.
Our team consists of knowledgeable, dedicated specialists with expertise in recruitment technology and talent attraction strategies. We provide Australian-based, easy-to-use recruitment software and solutions developed by recruiters for internal recruitment teams.
At Scout Talent, we’ve built a strong culture from the ground up and sustained it for more than twenty years. Our people are the foundation of our success, which is why we value and invest in them.
The Opportunity
Due to our organisation's growth and development, we have multiple opportunities for Sales Development Representatives to join our Sales Teams full-time at our Global Riverside head office in Milton, Brisbane, or from our Central Melbourne Office on Lonsdale Street.
As a Sales Development Representative, you will be a vital part of our sales team. You will be primarily responsible for researching prospective customers, creating outreach strategies, and identifying sales opportunities. You'll strive to discover an organisation's recruitment goals or challenges and identify which Scout Talent offerings will help them attract and secure the best talent.
This role is a fantastic stepping stone into sales and account management or even leadership if that's your chosen career path!
Key responsibilities include:
- Obtaining qualified leads by conducting high-volume prospecting (60-100 activities per day). We believe in making genuine connections, which is why in addition to email and LinkedIn messages, we strongly rely on phone and Zoom conversations;
- Scheduling discovery meetings with designated account executives to further assess a prospect’s talent acquisition goals and to explore the potential for partnership with Scout Talent; and
- Assisting organisations in achieving their talent acquisition potential.
You’ll be great in this role because...
First and foremost, you have a great ability to build rapport and relationships quickly with external stakeholders and decisions makers. You are able to communicate effectively and ask the right questions to uncover information.
You have some previous successful sales experience or a strong desire to begin a sales career. You have the ability to deal with rejection and thrive on objections.
Desirable attributes of our next Sales Development Representative:
- You genuinely love sales
- You find picking up the phone and having great conversations energising and exciting
- You value team collaboration, chasing your goals and celebrating the success of yourself and others
- You're ready for a new challenge, want to expand on your skills and gain valuable software/sales/recruitment experience
What you will get from Scout Talent
This role comes with on-target earnings of $65,000-$70,000 in your first year and 70K+ in your second year and beyond, made up of an attractive base salary and UNCAPPED commissions!
At Scout Talent, we’re committed to looking after you, with some great benefits, including:
- When it comes to career development, we invest in training and give you the opportunity to get to know other parts of the business. If you’re interested in leadership in the future, we’re firm believers in promoting from within!
- We’re a stable organisation (over 15 years in the industry), but we’re also growing, innovative, and open to new ideas.
- We offer flexible start/finish times alongside one day per week WFH to match the needs of your lifestyle
- We have regular rewards and social events - including quarterly awards nights/parties
- The opportunity to attend the annual Global Gathering - in the past, we've been to Vegas, Singapore, Cancun, Paris, Hawaii and New Zealand, to name a few.
Our roles are defined to a certain extent, and our employees understand their key domains and what they're setting out to achieve when they come on board. However, we don't restrict people by their title or their function. Team members do what they can with their skills and expertise to contribute to achieving the team's goals.
Everyone is supported to sense the environment around them, identify opportunities and problems, contribute insights and add value wherever they can across our business.
