Job Location: Remote

At Kensho, we hire talented people and give them the freedom, support, and resources needed to build cutting edge technology and products for our parent company, S&P Global. We produce a suite of AI-powered solutions that solves the challenges of the largest, most successful businesses and institutions, helping them make sense out of a world full of messy data. We, in turn, productize those solutions and help external partners – governments, companies and investment professionals – find actionable insights in their unstructured data.
As an Inside Sales Representative, you will make a significant impact on Kensho’s growth and future success as one of the early members of our expanding sales team. This role will work to market and drive lead generation for our artificial intelligence toolkit – a series of machine learning services that help customers understand unstructured data. You will be responsible for researching potential opportunities, initiating discussions with potential clients, cultivating relationships, and helping our sales team close deals. In addition, you will conduct market research to help refine our go-to-market and pricing strategies, as well conduct customer interviews and gather feedback to help our product managers develop new features.
An ideal candidate will be very comfortable making outbound calls, developing inbound leads, building our customer pipeline, and managing a sales process from initial call to close. This is an end-to-end sales role where no task is too small or too large.
At Kensho, we believe in flexibility-first, and give our employees the opportunity to work from where they feel most productive and engaged (must be in the United States). We also value in-person collaboration, so there may be times when travel to one of our Kensho hubs (NY/DC/MA) may be required for team meetings or company events on a monthly or quarterly basis.

    • Identify, contact, and market to target accounts about Kensho technology
    • Partner with the business to develop and conduct prospecting strategies
    • Follow-up on marketing-generated inbound leads and inquiries
    • Manage a pipeline utilizing a CRM to track activity and updates
    • Provide feedback and recommendations on marketing efforts and product development based on real front-line interactions
    • Conduct industry research to uncover pain points and find potential sales opportunities
    • Handle a variety of communication including, but not limited to, cold-calling, inbound calls, warm follow-ups, and email campaigns

What You’ll Need:

    • 1+ years’ experience of business development/inside sales or recent college grads with experience in a sales internship
    • Experience qualifying and selling B2B software or other technology products; closing experience preferred
    • Ability to excel in a fast-paced start-up environment and quickly adapt to change
    • Experience using a CRM (Salesforce, Hubspot, etc.)
    • Agility to balance multiple priorities simultaneously, sometimes across different segments of the sales cycle
    • Collaborative and cooperative attitude with sales and marketing teammates
    • Goal oriented and self-motivation, with a passion for the technology
    • Curiosity and interest in embracing the unique opportunity to build, experiment, and refine a new and successful sales program
At Kensho, we pride ourselves on providing top-of-market benefits, including:
  • Medical, Dental, and Vision insurance
  • 100% company paid premiums
  • Unlimited Paid Time Off
  • 26 weeks of 100% paid Parental Leave (paternity and maternity)
