## THE ROLE

We’re looking for curious and energetic sales talent to join our fast-growing team that works with some of the biggest brands in quick service restaurants, retailers, hospitality and financial organizations.

- Deliver High-Impact Demos: Present Solink’s platform in a compelling way that speaks to each customer’s unique challenges and goals.
- Hit (and Exceed) Your Targets: Consistently meet or exceed quota, while staying focused on quality conversations, qualified pipeline, and long-term customer value.
- Have Fun Doing It: Celebrate wins, bring energy, and enjoy the journey—because culture matters just as much as closing.
