• Proficiency in HubSpot, specifically with HubSpot Sequences and CRM management.
• Excellent professional written English with the ability to draft technical, needle-moving emails.
• Strong cold-calling skills and a comfortable, confident phone presence with US-based professionals.

• Ability to work US Central Time (8:00 AM – 5:00 PM CT).
