About the role

CaptivateIQ is transforming the way companies plan, manage, and optimize sales performance. We started by revolutionizing incentive compensation management, and now we're expanding our platform to solve broader sales planning challenges. Recognized by industry analysts like Forrester and G2 and backed by top-tier investors, including Sequoia, ICONIQ, Accel, and Sapphire Ventures,  we empower high-growth companies like Netflix, Figma, and Stripe with the flexibility and insights needed to drive revenue performance.
 
Join a talented, fast-growing team committed to solving some of the most complex and impactful problems in sales performance management.
 
About the Role
CaptivateIQ is looking for our next Enterprise Business Development Representative! You will join a team that has already proven to be one of the most crucial go-to-market drivers for CIQ's monumental growth in the last 3 years.

In return, you’ll be supported and trained to own the end-to-end pipeline development process from Account Identification to Opportunity Creation. 
 
This job is only won by ambitious, disciplined, tenacious, resilient, humble, competitive, endlessly curious, and coachable individuals regarding the art and science of sales.
