Requirements

What we're looking for

📚 Who You Are
Required:

  • 1-2 years of experience in sales, BDR, or a customer-facing role-we care more about drive than years

  • Excellent communication skills in Spanish-you can open doors, handle objections, and build rapport fast

  • Hunter mindset: curious, resilient, and motivated by hitting targets

  • Comfortable with rejection-you treat every "no" as data, not a defeat

  • High ownership and bias to action: you don't wait to be told what to do

Nice to have

  • Catalan fluency (many of our target customers are Catalonia-based)

  • English proficiency (useful for internal communication and future expansion)

  • Experience selling or working in HR, payroll, or operations-heavy environments

  • Familiarity with tools like HubSpot, Salesforce, Apollo, or similar

  • Background in high-turnover industries (hospitality, logistics, staffing)-you understand the pain we solve

⭐️ What makes you a great fit:
You get energy from picking up the phone. You write outreach that actually gets replies-because it's specific, relevant, and human. You're coachable but don't need hand-holding. You want to grow into a closing role and you know this is the best way to get there. You care about the problem Valeria is solving, not just the quota.

Pay & benefits

What you'll get

  • Competitive compensation: €25,000 (fix) + €10,000 (variable uncapped) gross salary

  • Free lunch when you're at the office thanks to Kombo & Nora

  • Flexible remuneration with Coverflex

  • Flexibility: Hybrid setup (HQ in Barcelona), 60 days/year remote work from anywhere

  • Unlimited vacation days - take the time you need, no counting days

The role

What you'll do

You'll be the first human touchpoint for prospects at Valeria. Marketing brings them into the funnel-you're the one who opens the real conversation. You'll own the top of the funnel: researching accounts, running outbound sequences, qualifying leads, and booking the meetings that turn interest into revenue.

This isn't a passive role. You'll work directly with the AE and founders to figure out what messaging works, which verticals convert, and how to build a pipeline that scales. If you perform, the path to AE is real and fast.

Be the first point of contact for inbound leads and outbound prospects-primarily in hospitality, logistics, events, and agriculture

  • Run personalized outbound sequences across cold calls, LinkedIn, and email-not templated spray-and-pray

  • Qualify leads based on ICP criteria and book meetings for the AE

  • Work closely with marketing and the AE to align on messaging, targeting, and what resonates with buyers

  • Test and iterate on outreach strategies-share what works, kill what doesn't

  • Keep CRM data clean and accurate so pipeline is always trustworthy

  • Feed market insights back to the team: objections, competitor mentions, buying signals

🚀 Why Join Valeria Now?

  • Timing: We're past the "idea stage" with real customers and revenue, but early enough that you'll define how we scale

  • Market opportunity: €5B+ market in Spain, every company with employees needs payroll, and current solutions are outdated and painful

  • Product-market fit: We're solving a painful, expensive problem with a product customers actually love

  • Career growth: Be a critical product hire, build the playbook, and grow into a leadership role as we scale the team

Hiring process

  1. Intro call with People (30 min)

  2. Interview with the Hiring Manager (45 min)

  3. Business Case - Onsite at the office (1 hour)

  4. Founders interview (45 min)

  5. Offer
