Benzinga is looking for a Growth Development Representative to play a foundational role in our sales process. This entry-level position focuses on generating sales opportunities with financial services advertisers.

Conduct outbound outreach via email, phone, and LinkedIn to set up calls and meetings.
Schedule qualified meetings for senior members of the Benzinga sales team.
Provide a short pre-meeting summary to the sales executive for each meeting set.
Remain involved in meetings you originate, attending alongside the sales executive.
Support senior sellers with research, follow-ups, and coordination.
Stay involved as deals progress to learn how revenue is ultimately closed.
Gain exposure to advertising strategy, pricing, and campaign execution.
Log all outreach, meetings, and opportunities in CRM.
Track activity, meeting quality, pipeline influence, and results.
Build strong sales habits and operational discipline.

What We're Looking For

0–2 years of professional experience (sales experience a plus, not required).
Strong communication skills, both written and verbal.
Comfort with outbound outreach and talking to professionals.
Curiosity about finance, markets, or financial services.
Organized, accountable, and coachable attitude.
