Spanning both our Athens and Boston offices, with lots of collaboration between
the two, this is our fastest-growing department. And it’s only going to get bigger.
Look across our team and you’ll see a rich and varied blend of backgrounds and experiences. There’s no one-size-fits-all approach here. Diversity is at the heart of what makes Workable’s Sales team a success. Our products target the needs of a wide range of customers, from many different industries, and all shapes and sizes, so it makes sense that the people who sell and support those products represent a wide range of experiences too.
How you approach your role matters: you’ll be energetic, helpful, enthusiastic and motivated; you’ll be committed to succeeding as part of a team, as well as on your own merit. But where you’ve come from, what your background is, doesn’t matter. You’ll be given time and the training you need to make a success of your new role. Whether that’s winning new business, helping existing customers solve their hiring challenges, demoing our products, or creating quotes and packages for potential customers. So get ready to play an important role in supporting us as we meet the challenges and rewards that come with continued high-growth.

VP Sales
To connect customers with Workable, Mike focuses on developing actionable skillsets for the sales team and is constantly thinking about the customer experience. He comes to Workable with a breadth and depth of experience in growing global sales teams and lives by the philosophy to always grow, in all ways.
We like to be surprised and challenged. We want you to use this process
to understand us, as we get to know you. Ask questions, relax – and enjoy.
Having reviewed your CV or application form, we’ll set up an informal call with our Recruiting or Hiring Manager. They’ll ask about your current role, your skills and expectations, what motivates you, and how you see your career developing.
All candidates start this stage by completing a 25-minute General Aptitude Test (through Skype or in one of our offices).
Sales Development Reps (SDR)
If you’re applying to join as an SDR, we’ll ask you to prepare for a short role play. You’ll be sent a briefing in advance and will have a few days to research and familiarise yourself with the scenario. Using Skype you’ll act out the 10-minute role play with our Sales Development Manager. You’ll be able to discuss your approach and ask any questions in a follow-up chat with them directly afterwards.
This exercise will give you a good feel for how we work and the context we operate in. There’s no right or wrong approach. We’re interested in how you interact, communication skills, flexibility and creativity.
Account Executive roles
If you’re applying for an Account Executive role, you’ll take part in a phone call with our VP of Sales. They’ll want to understand in more detail your professional experience, skills, motivation and ambitions, and if our needs and expectations match.
The final stage in the process, this face-to-face interview is with one of our Executive Team. They’ll explain more about us as a business – how we operate, our structure, our vision and our culture.
We’ll let you know our decision as soon as we can. Whatever the outcome, we’re happy to share our feedback with you. We know how important it is for your development.
