Location: Clearwater, FL (full time, in person)
Compensation: $40,000 to $50,000, depending on experience
For the right candidate, we will also consider part time.
About Us
MetroTech (Managed IT Services) and MetroConnect (VoIP/Telecom) have been looking after businesses across Tampa Bay for 21 years under the same name. We’re known for old school customer service and cutting edge technology, and for clients who stay with us for decades.
The Role
We’re looking for someone a little different.
This isn’t a traditional sales job, and you don’t need years of technology sales experience. We’re looking for someone who likes making things happen. Someone who enjoys meeting people, starting conversations, building relationships and following up. Someone who can hear “not right now” and remember to call again six months later.
The tools are already in place. We have more than 1,000 existing leads and prospects, an outside marketing team, active digital marketing, chamber memberships, networking groups and a 20+ year reputation in Tampa Bay. What we need is someone who wakes up every day thinking about how to turn all of that activity into real conversations.
You won’t be expected to become an IT expert or close complex technology deals. Our leadership team handles the consultative sales process and closing. Your job is to make sure the right businesses get to that conversation.
Responsibilities
- Work our existing database of 1,000+ leads and prospects, and keep it organized and up to date
- Research and develop new prospects, especially in law, medical, HOA and manufacturing
- Follow up with prospects consistently, including the ones who said “not yet”
- Schedule qualified appointments for our leadership team
- Represent MetroTech at chamber events, networking groups and local business events
- Work with our marketing team on campaigns, and help follow up on the interest they create
- Help manage MetroTech’s social media presence
Where This Can Go
We want this position to have somewhere to go. For the right person, this is a chance to learn business development, marketing and consultative sales by working directly alongside our leadership team, and to take on more responsibility as you grow.
What We Offer
- Salary: $40,000 to $50,000, depending on experience
- Support: An established lead database, an outside marketing team, CRM and marketing tools
- Training: Hands-on learning in business development, marketing and consultative sales
- Growth: A clear path to more responsibility as you develop
- Culture: A local, veteran-owned company with a 21-year reputation for doing the right thing
Who We’re Looking For
We care less about the perfect résumé than we do about initiative, curiosity, personality and follow through.
- You’re comfortable picking up the phone and talking to people you haven’t met
- You’re organized, and you don’t let things fall through the cracks
- You enjoy being out in the community and meeting business owners
- You write clearly and professionally, including on social media
- You’re the person who sees something that needs to happen and makes it happen
- Experience in a customer-facing, sales support, marketing or hospitality role is helpful but not required
- Reliable transportation for local networking events across Tampa Bay
