Then we really want to talk to you!
About Palm Sales
Sales at Palm have been founder lead with support from seasoned sales advisors that have set the ground work to scale. We’ve been leading the charge into enterprise treasury teams, but now it’s time to bring on our first dedicated sales hire to take us to the next level.
This role is not about “running a playbook” — it’s about writing it with us. You’ll partner directly with the founders to define Palm’s GTM strategy, refine our ICP, and build the outbound engine that turns conversations into flagship customers.
At Palm, sales is defined by our values:
- Speak with Courage: We don’t wait for perfect decks — we start conversations.
- Lead with Curiosity: We share learnings fast, so we can iterate even faster.
- Work with Heart: Enterprise deals are complex — we embrace the chase.
You’ll be working side by side with the founders, product, and engineering, shaping Palm’s growth and leaving your fingerprints on the company we’re building.
How will you make an impact?
- Prospect, qualify, and run full-cycle sales with enterprise CFOs and treasurers.
- Build trust with multiple stakeholders (Finance, IT, Procurement, InfoSec).
- Work closely with BDRs to breed mutual success. We all win together.
- Design and deliver compelling narratives and ROI-driven proposals.
- Navigate complex enterprise procurement and compliance processes.
- Refine Palm’s ICP and messaging based on real-world conversations.
- Be the bridge between market and product, sharing insights directly with the team.
- Close Palm’s early flagship customers, creating the case studies that power our growth.
Where we work
Palm is a remote-first company, with team members across Europe. We value flexibility and believe the best work often happens outside the office.
That said, this role is part of our founding sales team. To build playbooks, collaborate closely, and support each other in a high-growth environment, we’ll have regular in-person sessions (with the AE, BDRs, and founders). We’ll work together to determine the right cadence that supports flexibility.
