Sell something you believe in.
Do you know what sales is really about? If you do then you will know that sales is helping people who have a real problem by introducing them to an actual solution that genuinely solves their problem. That is sales.
Our Shape software is a genuinely great product so you will be able to sell something you believe in. Our software helps construction teams ditch outdated processes and work smarter, faster, and more efficiently.
This is your opportunity to be the one making that happen. You'll be finding the right people, getting them excited about what we do, and opening doors to new opportunities. Construction people are very busy and hard to get a hold of you will be creative and adaptable to get your 2 minutes with them to get them interested.

You'll play a key role in understanding industry challenges, tailoring outreach to the right teams, and making sure every conversation adds value. Beyond opening doors, you'll help set up processes that will allow us to scale our outreach across US and UK (depending on which market you'll be supporting).
Team You'll be part of our Growth team, working closely with sales, marketing, and product experts. Together, we tell Laminar's Project story to the world and build connections with those who haven't yet experienced how game-changing our platform is.
Your top 4 responsibilities

Refine our outreach strategy: Using data and insights, you'll continuously improve our approach, experimenting with messaging, channels, and engagement tactics to maximize impact.3. Collaborate with the team: You'll work closely with marketing, product, and customer success teams to align efforts, share feedback, and ensure we're reaching the right people in the right way.4. Grow yourself and others: We're big on learning and development. You'll have the opportunity to sharpen your sales skills, share best practices, and contribute to building a world-class growth function.5. Shape how we scale: Bring your experience building outreach processes and systems to help us refine our SDR engine as we scale.
Your Capabilities You are a high-energy, people-focused sales person who sees sales as a way of helping people, not extracting money out of them. You know how to connect with people, ask the right questions, and spark interest in a way that feels natural. You're not just here to sell - you're here to help potential customers see how we can transform the way they work.
As a candidate, you should have:- Mastery: Experience in B2B sales, ideally in SaaS, construction tech, or digital solutions. You understand how to engage decision-makers and guide them through a sales process.- Communication: A confident and engaging communicator. You know how to make complex ideas simple and compelling. You're comfortable talking to both hands-on construction teams and senior business leaders, and you build relationships through a humanistic, empathetic approach - because our customers aren't just numbers!- Leadership: You take ownership. Youre unafraid of rejection, dont take no as the end of the conversation, and you enjoy experimenting with new ways to connect and add value.- Impact: You can read between the lines, spot opportunities, and adapt your approach based on what's working. You don't just book meetings - you open doors.
Nice to Have (If you dont have it now you will after joining):- Mastery: If you're not an expert in construction tech yet, you will be! We'll give you the tools and knowledge to speak the industry's language.- Communication: A master in the art of influencing and persuasion with an extensive network in the construction and/or tech start-up industries.- Leadership: We're growing fast, and we want our best SDRs to step up and take on bigger responsibilities.

The relationships you build and the insights you gather will help refine our approach and drive real change in the industry.
