About the role

Are you looking for a stimulating professional environment based on autonomy and trust?

Pennylane offers you the opportunity to grow within a rapidly expanding company.

Here, your experience will directly contribute to helping entrepreneurs regain control of their finances. Discover a place where your skills will be valued and where you can shape the future of financial management.

Why is this role so important to our company?

In this hyper-growth context, the sales team plays a key role in finding and closing new contracts.

The Small Business Specialist (SBS) team is the first link in Pennylane's sales chain when it comes to micro-enterprises.

A key aspect of this role is managing leads from two acquisition channels: 1. direct acquisition through our marketing team and 2. indirect acquisition through our accounting partners.

The SBS team was created in early 2023. It currently consists of 5 salespeople, and we are looking for 2 new people so the team can handle the workload without losing the quality of service, which is our top priority.

What you'll do


How will you contribute to the project?

- You will manage a volume of 15 to 20 inbound leads per day
- From companies with 1 to 5 employees
- From the first call to closing the sale with the prospect.

These leads mainly come from marketing or the website (direct acquisition) and have started the automatic registration process but interrupted it midway. Based on qualitative information, your goal will be to organize yourself to manage a two-speed sales process:

- Maximize "one-call closes" and demonstrate your ability to quickly convert deals with simple needs, for which Pennylane is the obvious choice.
- Spend time on more comprehensive and complex projects.

The second channel (mentioned above), indirect acquisition, is growing, but for now remains secondary. It represents approximately 10% of the micro-enterprise volume we will work with. Our sales approach is different, and numerous projects are being launched (something new for the team!).

What will your daily tasks be?

First three months:

- You will get to know Pennylane, its vision, and its teams to feel fully integrated.
- You will join the sales academy to thoroughly understand everyone's role and grasp how the sales team works as a whole.
- You will receive training from your manager and support from your sales team colleague to help you adapt to the team.
- You will shadow more experienced team members and thus become familiar with product features and the sales arguments to use
- You will make your first calls and close your first deals.

From 4 to 8 months:

- You will autonomously manage your portfolio of inbound leads, handle the entire sales cycle, and generate your share of revenue for the SME sales team,
- You will contribute to improving team processes and share your best practices,
- You will collaborate with other Pennylane teams (onboarding, customer support, product, sales...) to relay customer feedback and contribute to the continuous improvement of our platform

What you'll get

🎁 What we can offer you:

🏥 Health insurance among the best on the market (Alan Blue and Alan Mind)

🍜 Restaurant vouchers (Swile card)

🏝 Between 6 and 12 additional rest days on top of the 5 weeks of paid vacation

🧑‍💻 A dedicated monthly budget for all our Pennylaners, supporting working from home or in coworking spaces

🏢 Easy access to our offices, located just minutes from Saint-Lazare, in the heart of Paris

💵 A BSPCE package (employee stock options)

🏃‍♀️ Access to 8,000 gyms across France and more than 300 wellness activities through our partner Gymlib

💻 A Mac

🎉 We play many sports together and strive to regularly come together around company events such as Tech Days (which allow remote Pennylaners to meet every 3 months) or our annual seminar, which fosters great moments of cohesion for everyone.
