Responsibilities
- Cold Prospecting: You are directly responsible for generating new opportunities through outbound prospecting. That means identifying target accounts, initiating contact, and creating a pipeline that does not yet exist
- Pipeline Management: Take ownership of a lead pipeline. Maintain and nurture relationships with consultants and key decision makers to convert leads into quotable opportunities
- Discovery & Qualification: Lead consultative, Socratic-style discovery conversations to understand a prospect’s warehousing pain points, volume profile, and operational requirements. Qualify opportunities with rigor before advancing them
- HubSpot Hygiene: Keep HubSpot updated at all times — contacts, deal stages, activity logs, and next steps
- Quotable Deal Management: Own the full lifecycle from intake to final submission. Coordinate with our Solutions Engineering team to develop pricing and solution design. You are responsible for constructing a compelling narrative around why Buske is the right partner — and delivering it through polished, professional presentations. You will have support from a marketing resource, but will be expected to understand what “good” looks like in the end deliverable
- Solutions Collaboration: Work hand-in-hand with our Solutions Engineers to develop the right storage and fulfillment solution for each opportunity. You bring the client context and relationship; they bring the operational and pricing expertise
- Account Management: Serve as the single, trusted point of contact for your accounts post-close. Be responsive, proactive, and easy to work with. Handle client needs as they arise and keep relationships strong
- Account Expansion: Identify and pursue expansion opportunities within your existing book — additional product lines, regional overflow storage, cross-docking, or new value-added services
