We're hiring a remote Sales Development Rep / Inside Sales Closer at Aktivate — and this one's built for someone who's done a lap or two, not someone fresh out of the gate.
Aktivate is a Sports & Activities Management and Fundraising platform for schools and athletic departments. We're growing fast, and we're looking for one person to own the full motion: book the meetings AND close the deals.
What the role actually is:
- Proactive outbound to Athletic Directors, coaches, and school administrators — calls, email, text
- Working directly with coaches to help them fundraise for their teams and programs
- Qualifying the right decision-makers and booking meetings
- Running and closing school-wide partnership deals you source yourself
- Keeping a clean, honest pipeline in the CRM
Why you'd want it:
- Remote, full stop. Work from anywhere.
- Real ownership — you source and close, so your wins are yours
- Uncapped commission + early-stage equity. Base is startup-modest; your upside isn't. The more you close, the more you make, and you get a real piece of what we're building.
- A clear, simple scorecard: meetings held and deals closed
Who we're looking for:
- At least 1 year in a sales or SDR role — you've carried a number before
- A sports or athletics background is a big plus. ADs and coaches are busy and skeptical; people who understand the schedules, the pressure, and the world of school athletics connect faster and book more. If you've ever had to fundraise for a team, you'll get this product immediately
- Persistent, organized, and genuinely comfortable on the phone
If you've got a year of sales under your belt, you know the sports world, and you want uncapped upside on a remote team that's building something real — let's talk.
Please submit your resume to jobs@aktivate.com to apply today.
