## About the role

Huge untapped revenue potential : Heron is growing quickly and sales is still catching up to the potential of our product. We serve over 190 customers but that is still a tiny share of the market. You'll take real territory from day one and share in our growth via uncapped commission and equity.

## What they're looking for

- We care more about slope than resume keywords. Our ideal hire will have:
- Evidence you can sell : if you've carried a number, show us the attainment. If you haven't, show us persuasion some other way: clients won, money raised, a side business built - or simply the application you send us (see the note above)
- Entrepreneurial spirit : an ownership mindset, results-driven and the ability to move quickly
- Above all else, we value people who want to make an impact in their work. Here are some of the behaviours that we expect the ideal candidate will exhibit:
- Be scrappy and creative : when faced with an obstacle, you will either overcome it by pure determination, or find an unusual approach to navigate it
- Be persistent : you may not always find the right answer or person immediately, but you're motivated to keep on trying until you do so. You'll go the extra mile - including showing up at their office - if that's what it takes
