In this hybrid role based in Scottsdale, Arizona, you will manage the full sales cycle—from initial outreach through deal closure—while becoming an expert on NerdWallet's product suite and lending network.
Key responsibilities include handling inbound and outbound prospecting, qualifying business owners, presenting loan options aligned with their needs, coordinating with lender partners, and consistently meeting monthly sales targets. You'll work primarily in-office to leverage team collaboration and spontaneous learning opportunities, with flexibility to work remotely up to 20% of the month after completing training (typically months 4-6).
You should have 3 months to 2 years of direct sales experience, strong pipeline management skills, and the ability to thrive in a fast-paced inside sales environment. Excellent communication, multitasking, and resilience in challenging conversations are essential. You'll take feedback constructively and continuously raise your performance bar.
