Job Description

Hey there! We're CERRIX, a fast-growing B2B SaaS scale-up helping organizations manage their risk and compliance in a smarter, more collaborative way. We're looking for a Sales Development Representative (SDR) to help fill our pipeline and open doors at financial institutions in the Netherlands and across Europe. Working hand in hand with our marketing team, you'll share ownership of pipeline generation. If you love starting conversations, take initiative and aren't afraid to pick up the phone, keep reading. 🧭 What you'll be doing Generate pipeline together with Marketing: you and our marketing team share responsibility for pipeline, working side by side on target accounts, campaigns and messaging. Run multichannel outreach to our ICP: set up and run campaigns via email, LinkedIn and phone, aimed at risk and compliance leaders at banks, insurers, pension funds and other regulated organizations. Calling prospects is a big part of the job. Generate leads at tradeshows and events: represent CERRIX at industry events across Europe and turn conversations at the stand into new opportunities.

Just starting your career? That's fine, as long as you've already proven you can sell. Hearing "no" doesn't faze you: you don't take rejection personally and pick up the phone again just as easily. You're coachable and use feedback to keep improving. Fluent in Dutch and English, with strong interpersonal skills and outstanding verbal and written communication. Listening well and asking the right questions is second nature to you: it's how you build relationships with prospects and earn their trust. You take initiative: you spot opportunities, come up with ideas and act on them. Analytical and tech-savvy: you're handy with lists and data, enjoy digging into campaign results, and are curious about the latest AI, sales and marketing tools. 🌟 Bonus points Experience with HubSpot, Lemlist and Clay. Interest in, or familiarity with, financial services or Governance, Risk & Compliance. ⭐ Extra bonus points if you speak a Nordic language (Swedish, Danish or Norwegian). 🚀 Why you'll love working here Room to grow: learn from experienced colleagues, sharpen your sales skills, and take on more responsibility as you develop. You'll work with a team that values openness, curiosity, and good humor. No rigid hierarchies: we like people who take initiative. Competitive salary and benefits to support your well-being and growth. Ergonomics Voucher: upgrade your home office with a voucher to improve comfort and productivity. Quarterly Mental Health Days: take one fully paid day off each quarter to rest and recharge. Learning & Development Budget: receive an annual personal budget of €500+ for professional development.
