Sales Development Representative - French speaker
🚀 Ready to launch your sales career in one of the world’s fastest-growing fintech companies?
Join our high-energy team in Barcelona and help us bring smarter payment solutions to small businesses across the UK and Europe.
At SumUp, we’re on a mission to empower small merchants by making payments simple, accessible, and hassle-free. Today, we support over 4 million businesses in 30+ countries — and we’re just getting started. As a Sales Development Representative (SDR), you’ll be the first point of contact with future SumUp merchants, introducing them to a product that actually makes a difference.
Whether you're just starting out or looking to grow in your sales career, this role offers the perfect launchpad:
📞 Build real sales skills
🌍 Work in a diverse, international team
🧠 Learn fast with expert mentorship
🚀 Grow your career in tech from day one
What you'll be up to:
- Proactively reach out to businesses via targeted outbound calls to understand their needs and assess their fit for SumUp’s POS and payment solutions
- Qualify merchants by gathering key business information and offering insights into how our products can support their operations
- Schedule high-quality, localised appointments for our Field Sales team to conduct in-depth demos, negotiate terms, and close deals
- Focus on outreach to merchants who haven’t requested contact, using outbound tools, lead lists, and past opportunity data
- Play a key role in driving deal generation by ensuring Field Sales has a strong pipeline of well-matched, engaged prospects
We’d love to meet you if you have:
- Strong communication skills and a friendly, confident phone presence
- Fluency in English and French
- Experience working directly with customers or clients in a fast-paced environment
- A track record in outbound outreach — you’re comfortable starting conversations from scratch
- Some hands-on cold calling experience (and the resilience that comes with it!)
- Previous sales experience — not a must, but definitely a plus
