Business Forum Group Now Hiring: A Dutch Speaking Account Manager

We at Business Forum Group, one of the leading leadership conference organizers in Europe, are now strengthening our team by hiring new sales team members at our Jyväskylä office. Here is what you need to know: our aim is to become the most significant conference series in the world and this goal can only be achieved by a strong team of A-players. If you are an A-player, we have an opportunity for you. So keep reading.

Let Us Introduce Ourselves:

Business Forum Group leadership conferences are known for world-class content and an extraordinary customer experience! Much of this is due to our top-notch speaker lineup, which has included President Barack Obama, Sir Richard Branson, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Brené Brown, Simon Sinek, Jim Collins, Amy Edmondson and Arianna Huffington. Needless to say, we focus on quality and delivering value in everything we do.

We love to have fun and we are serious about our mission to build leaders who change the world. Our customer base includes executives and business leaders from over 50 countries. We operate in Finland, Sweden, Norway, Netherlands, and Estonia. Currently, we are growing our sales team to drive ticket and live stream license sales for our new (yet to be published) flagship event in the Netherlands, the Amsterdam Business Forum.

Now, Let’s talk about You!

A-players may be hard to come by, but we believe in the impossible.

We are looking for someone who is: 

An energetic, goal-oriented sales superstar who is comfortable working with targets (both performance and results)  

• A high-performer who is dedicated to continuous learning

• Experienced, with proven success in B2B or B2C telesales, including cold calling, prospecting, and lead nurturing. This one is important! Our standard is 75 calls per week per person.

• Self-motivated with an entrepreneurial mindset (no micromanaging here!)

• A team player with positive attitude

• Fluent in Dutch and English

If this all sounds easy to you... Congrats, you’re an A-player!

Here’s what we can offer you in return:

• Learning opportunities. You will watch the same presentations as our audience, as well as have leadership lessons, training sessions, and peer-learning opportunities throughout the year.

• High-profile networking. With us, you’ll have the chance to meet business people in the Nordics.

• Full onboarding training. During your first two weeks with us, you will spend your time learning about our company, values, sales process, and more. We will give you the tools that you need to succeed.

• An international team: you will join a top performing commercial team, working for sales in the Nordics. So you can learn from their experience, and use that to explore new sales opportunities in the Netherlands.

• Bonus activities, attending events, and other trips as a reward for meeting our targets.

• Commissions and bonuses. These extras are paid on top of your base salary, based on your performance.

This is a full-time, permanent position based in Jyväskylä, Finland.
