Who we are:

For over 25 years, Global Relay has set the standard in enterprise information archiving with industry-leading cloud archiving, surveillance, eDiscovery, and analytics solutions. We securely capture and preserve the communications data of the world’s most highly regulated firms, giving them greater visibility and control over their information and ensuring compliance with stringent regulations.

Sales Handoff & Pipeline Hygiene

  • Work closely with the Strategic Accounts Team to prospect through high-touch outreach campaigns, and qualify leads based on criteria such as interest, authority, and buying timeline before passing to Sales.

  • Conduct pre-event outreach (phone, email, LinkedIn) to generate interest and schedule meetings for Sales.
  • Support on-site activity by assisting with booth lead capture, coordinating scheduled meetings, and ensuring accurate Salesforce tagging.
  • Post-event, follow up with attendees to nurture leads and transition qualified opportunities to Sales.

Marketing Campaign Alignment

  • Track event leads’ engagement with marketing campaigns (emails, webinars, nurture tracks) and ensure Sales visibility.
  • Share relevant marketing materials (case studies, product sheets, videos) with prospects to enhance outreach.
  • Provide feedback to Marketing on which campaigns, events, and messages generate the highest quality leads.

Analytics & Reporting

  • Support event ROI measurement by tracking leads generated, meetings booked, and pipeline created.
  • Monitor conversion rates from event leads to opportunities, surfacing insights for improvement.

  • Capture anecdotal customer and prospect feedback from events to inform product positioning and marketing messaging.

About you: 

  • 1 - 2 years experience in sales, lead generation, or business development (SaaS or Fintech experience is a major plus).
  • Exceptional written and verbal communication skills with the ability to simplify complex technical concepts.
  • A "hunter" mentality with a proven track record of hitting or exceeding monthly quotas, and operating to deadlines.  
  • Familiarity with modern sales stacks (Salesforce, LinkedIn Sales Navigator, and ZoomInfo).
  • A genuine interest in the regulatory environment, risk management, or financial technology.
