SALES MANAGER

⏰ SALES MANAGER AT AMPERE PEOPLE Location: Remote; Type: Full-time

🌐 About Ampere Ampere is a UK-headquartered B2B financial institution. We are now launching a new hiring product Ampere People. It lets companies hire full-time employees and contractors in 150+ countries without opening local entities (Employer of Record, Contractor of Record and contractor payments) — and manage payroll and payouts right next to their business banking.

The role This is an early-stage role with a lot of ownership. The product is live and the partner infrastructure is in place — but there is no pipeline yet. Your first and most important job is to build the sales funnel from scratch: find the right companies, generate and qualify leads, start conversations and turn them into deals.

What you will do • Build the sales funnel for Ampere People from zero: define target segments and ideal customer profile, build lead lists, launch outbound and test channels. • Generate and qualify leads through cold email, LinkedIn, communities, events and partnerships, and book first meetings. • Run discovery with startups and SMBs hiring internationally: target countries, headcount, employees vs contractors, timelines and total cost. • Take deals through to close: proposals and per-country quotes together with our infrastructure partners, negotiation and handover to onboarding. • Set up and run the pipeline in CRM; track every stage of the funnel and report on it weekly. • Develop referral channels: accountants, law firms, recruiters, VCs, accelerators and startup communities. • Co-create the sales toolkit: pitch deck, outreach sequences, playbook, objection handling. • Bring every insight from the market back to the product team — what clients ask for, why deals are lost, which countries and use cases matter most.

What we are looking for • 5+ years in B2B sales, with hands-on experience in lead generation and building a pipeline from scratch. • Proven experience selling products to startups — this is a must. • A track record in outbound: cold email, LinkedIn, sequences, turning cold conversations into meetings and deals. • Comfortable talking to founders, HR leads and CFOs, and explaining complex topics simply. • Startup mindset: you are happy to work without a ready playbook, test fast and build process as you go. • Fluent English

Nice to have • Experience selling EOR, global payroll, tools, HR tech or fintech/payments products. • Understanding of how international hiring works: EOR vs contractors, misclassification risk, statutory costs. • An existing network among startups and companies hiring internationally. • Experience with HubSpot and outbound tooling.

🎁 What we offer • Base salary + bonuses • A rare chance to build a new business line from day one inside an established, regulated fintech. • Direct work with the CEO; real influence on product and go-to-market.
