ROLE OVERVIEW

We are looking for a GTM Execution Assistant to support a growing technology business by taking repetitive go-to-market execution work off the leadership team's plate.

This is an execution-focused role rather than a strategic growth position . The successful candidate will be responsible for consistently researching prospects, assessing their fit against a defined Ideal Customer Profile (ICP), conducting email and LinkedIn outreach, and managing responses.

The ideal candidate is highly consistent, self-managed and comfortable performing repetitive, high-volume tasks without requiring constant supervision or follow-up.

EXPERIENCE WITH TOOLS

IDEAL CANDIDATE PROFILE
