Sales Development Representative London, England
Job description
Sales Development Representative
Location: Remote (London or Birmingham)
About us
We're a mission-led cloud-based construction tech startup. Sean McCreanor (co-founder and CEO) started Assignar in 2014 after experiencing the painful lack of offerings available to him as a contractor to run his own business operations. Cut to present and Assignar works with hundreds of customers, ranging from multinational, multi-billion-dollar companies to specialist contractors.
We've found product-market fit: Assignar is an all-in-one platform, now leading the way in digital construction operations built for contractors. We enable teams to have real-time visibility on jobsites to successfully schedule the right workers to the right projects, track equipment efficiently, and make well-informed, data-driven decisions for future projects.
We're well funded. In 2021, we raised a $20 million Series B (https://techcrunch.com/2021/05/19/construction-tech-startup-assignar-raises-20m-in-fifth-wall-led-series-b/) funding round. Investor demand was so high that in late 2021, we raised a $16.5 million secondary round. Our investors include Fifth Wall, Tola Capital, Ironspring Capital, OIF Ventures, Tiger Global, HighSage Ventures, and SecondQuarter Ventures.
We have a talented and diverse global team. Assignar was born in Australia and is now headquartered in Denver, Colorado, with team members also in Aus, N.Z & the UK.
