Sales Development Intern/Working Student (x/f/m) - #2170022

At Sharpist we are on a mission to "Empower everyone to lead a self-aware career and life," we've rallied the giants—Porsche, RWE, IKEA, and hundreds more—raising €30 million to fuel our rocket-like launch. We've made our share of mistakes, but each one has propelled us forward, faster and wiser. Now, under the leadership of our co-founder and CEO, we're rebuilding our sales force from scratch, creating a powerhouse team, who have driven Sharpist to become the #1 coaching platform in the DACH region. We've transformed a traditional coaching company into a data-driven titan, revolutionizing not just our learners and their careers, but the very fabric of organizations around them. We don’t watch football; we play in the major leagues of coaching.

The Role:

As an Sales Development Intern/Working Student at Sharpist, you're not just filling a seat; you're gearing up to be part of the next generation of entrepreneurial thinkers. Here, you'll apply what you've learned in real-world scenarios, driving sales and crafting new business opportunities through both inbound and outbound strategies.

And here’s the best part: the skills you’ll develop in sales, prospecting, and outbound strategies aren’t just for today—they’re the foundation for building your own B2B company in the future. Whether you dream of launching a startup or leading a growth team, the hands-on experience you’ll gain here is your perfect stepping stone into the world of B2B business.

This isn’t your typical job—it’s a fast-paced, hands-on experience where every call, email, and LinkedIn message counts. Plus, the B2B sales expertise you’ll build here will set you up to launch your own venture when the time comes.

What You’ll Learn

In Week 1:

• SDR Onboarding: Get introduced to our SDR workflow and master our CRM, learning how we transform “qualified” leads into engaged prospects.
• Tool Time: Explore our arsenal of prospecting plays—from critical event outreach to social and consulting plays—and understand exactly when to deploy each tactic.
  
  

In Month 1:

• Active Outreach: Start executing multichannel campaigns. Whether it’s on LinkedIn, via email, or through video prospecting, you’ll learn how to spark meaningful engagement.
• Data Mastery: Develop a sharp eye for prospect data. When something’s off, you’ll know how to reassign the lead and log your “deal-making intel” like a pro.
• Collaboration: Work closely with our Marketing team and Account Executives to fine-tune your approach, ensuring every lead you handle is primed for success.
  
  

In Month 3 and Beyond:

• Pipeline Ownership: Begin managing your own mini-pipeline, turning qualified leads into Sales Qualified Leads (SQLs) that pave the way for our Account Executives.
• Process Optimization: Share your insights weekly to help continuously enhance our outreach strategies.
• B2B Business Foundation: The sales strategies you’ll master here—prospecting, lead nurturing, and closing—are exactly what you’ll need to build and scale your own B2B company one day.
  
  

What We Expect From You

• Passion & Proactivity: You’re not one to sit on the sidelines. You take initiative, dive into challenges, and make things happen. You run well in unstructured environments.
• Communication Savvy: Whether on a call or in an email, your ability to connect, persuade, and engage shines through. (German native level is a must.)
• Analytical Mindset: You understand that behind every prospect lies a story waiting to be uncovered—and you’re ready to dive into the details.
• Future Entrepreneur: You’re eager to build a strong sales foundation that will one day help you launch your own B2B venture.
• Local & Learning-Focused: You're excited to put theory into practice in a dynamic startup setting, right in our neighborhood.
• AI-first Mindset: You work with AI agents daily
