What You'll Do:

Criteo GO is building a next-generation, self-serve performance media platform for small and mid-sized businesses. To accelerate adoption, we are hiring an SMB Sales Specialist to own the full sales cycle, from prospecting to successfully activating advertisers on Criteo GO. This role sits at the intersection of sales, onboarding, and light-touch strategic guidance. You will handle outbound and inbound prospects , qualify and prioritize them, guide them through setup and first campaign launch, and ensure a clean handoff into scaled lifecycle programs. Your goal is to maximize conversion and time-to-first-value, not to manually operate campaigns.

• You will own the full sales cycle journey, from prospecting, first contact through first successful campaign and initial performance review, with clear SLAs on outreach, follow-up, and activation.
• You will run structured discovery to understand each prospect’s business model, objectives, and readiness, and translate that into the right Criteo GO setup (tagging path, feed options, channels, budget ranges, and recommended next steps).
• You will guide advertisers through onboarding and campaign creation using a “coach, not operator” approach: screen-share walkthroughs when needed, playbooks and checklists, and strong use of in-product guidance and AI assistant features rather than manual builds.
• You will rigorously track your funnel (prospect or lead → qualified → onboarded → first spend → first success milestone) and partner with the Marketing and Operations teams to improve lead scoring, routing rules, and conversion playbooks over time.
• You will collect structured feedback on friction points in onboarding, billing, or campaign setup and feed that back to the GO Commercialization team to improve the self-serve experience.
• You will act as a visible, trusted point of contact for early-stage Criteo GO customers, setting expectations on level of support in a self-service model and positioning AI + self-serve tools as their primary growth levers.
• You will collaborate with Growth Marketing on lead handover rules, SLAs, and feedback on lead quality by segment, campaign, and channel.
• You will work with Lifecycle Marketing and Client Enablement to align onboarding flows, email cadences, Help Center content, and Criteo Academy modules with the realities you see in calls and demos.
• You will coordinate with Customer Care and the AI Agent Manager to define clear triage rules between strategic onboarding questions, technical issues, and what should be handled entirely by AI or support.
• You will provide concrete, prioritized feedback to Product Managers and UX Designers on where the onboarding flow, campaign setup, or reporting experience creates drop-off for new SMBs.

Who You Are:

• You have 2-4 years of experience in SMB sales, pre-sales, or account management in SaaS, AdTech, or another self-serve B2B product, with a strong track record on conversion and activation KPIs.
• You are comfortable owning a high volume of outbound and inbound conversations with short sales cycles, and you know how to prioritize using lead scores, intent signals, and revenue potential.
• You bring proven experience closing new business opportunities in the UK market
• You are product-led and consultative by default: you prefer to show customers how to self-serve and use automation, rather than running campaigns manually for them.
• You are fluent in digital marketing fundamentals (performance media, funnels, attribution basics, feeds or pixels) and can quickly diagnose common setup or performance issues for SMB advertisers.
• You are data-driven and comfortable working to targets such as lead-to-signup rate, signup-to-first-campaign rate, time-to-first-value, and early retention.
• You you have a entrepreneur mindset and thrive in a fast-moving, evolving environment, you are comfortable with ambiguity, and enjoy building playbooks and processes as you go.
• You communicate clearly and credibly with both SMB founders/marketers and internal stakeholders, adapting your message to the audience while staying concise and action-oriented.
