👷🏻‍♀️ What we do 👷🏻‍♀️

At Emidat, we are building the first climate-native product management system for building material manufacturers. We aim to decarbonise building materials, making up 11% of global GHG emissions. We collect data from physical production processes, generate a digital product passport with verified environmental data and make it usable along the value chain. In short: One solution to assess, design, buy, sell and manage products - with environmental impact at the core.

With this, we are building the digital infrastructure to make it faster, easier, and more sustainable to build the world around us.

What you will work on

Your mission

Accelerate Emidat’s growth by acquiring new leads, being Emidat’s first face to the customer and building our predictable, repeatable revenue engine

As our Sales Development Rep (UK&I), you will be driving our revenue pipeline focussing on the UK&I market. In this role, you are the first face and voice to our customer, so this role is perfect if you love being around people and have a talent for convincing, understanding and solving their problems.

At Emidat, we see top-of-funnel as equally important if not more so than closing deals. Without leads, there is no revenue. We are searching for a hungry sales person, who is not scared of approaching people actively and being the face of Emidat. Your customers are manufacturers, so you shouldn’t be shy and bring a curiosity for material manufacturing and construction (note: we think visiting steel, cement and glass plants is the coolest thing in the world next to customers holding their product into the Teams call to show us how it’s done).

You will be supported by mentors such as Mathias, who built the revenue engine at the German unicorn Forto. You will fine-tune our revenue engine (essentially testing hypotheses and fine-tuning our ICP, persona and jobs-to-be-done) and can develop into a sales team leadership role from here. With this, you will 2x/3x your market value in 1-2 years and really change the industry - we take care of the growth environment, you walk the walk.

• Industry Presence & Relationship Building: Serve as an Emidat brand ambassador by attending key industry events to build and nurture long-term, valuable relationships with strategic stakeholders across the UK market.
