Sales Development Representative bei WP Umbrella

Description

We’re hiring our first Sales Development Representative to help WP Umbrella grow in a deliberate, sustainable way.

This is a hands-on, outbound-focused sales role, centered on starting meaningful conversations, hunting for qualified prospects, and turning interest into revenue opportunities, not pushing volume or running scripts.

WP Umbrella serves a strong customer base in the US, France, and German-speaking Europe. This role focuses on outbound sales toward US-based agencies as well as French-speaking or German-speaking agencies, which is why fluency in English and French, or English and German, is required.

You will be entrusted with one of the most critical missions at WP Umbrella: creating new revenue opportunities with a clear return on investment.

This role comes with high ROI expectations. Your work is expected to translate into pipeline and revenue.

You’ll work autonomously after onboarding, build your own pipeline, book and organize demos, and help define how sales should work at WP Umbrella as we scale.

We’re a small and growing startup, which means your impact will be real and visible. If you perform, opportunities to grow with the company will naturally follow.

You’ll work directly with the founder and collaborate closely with Support and Marketing to ensure strong alignment between sales, product, and customer reality.

Your Mission

• Proactively hunt for new leads in the WordPress and web agency ecosystem
• Identify relevant prospects and start conversations in a natural, non-salesy way
• Engage prospects on social platforms (LinkedIn, X, communities, etc.)
• Qualify interest and book product demos with the right prospects
• Build, manage, and maintain your own sales pipeline
• Keep your work structured and well-documented (leads, conversations, outcomes)
• Share feedback from prospects to improve messaging, positioning, and targeting
• Help build the first outbound sales processes and playbooks

Requirements

Your Hard & Soft Skills

Must-Have

• Comfortable with performance expectations and revenue accountability
• Autonomous, reliable, and organized in a remote environment
• Comfortable working in an early-stage setup where not everything is defined yet
• Knowledge of the WordPress web agency / freelancer ecosystem

Nice to Have

• Experience selling SaaS to agencies, freelancers, or professionals
• Familiarity with WordPress, hosting, or website maintenance concepts
