Description
Department: Sales Development
Team: Head of Sales Development & Lead Generation department
Location: Remote
โณ Employment Type: Full-time
Who we are?
Eleken is a product design partner for SaaS companies. We work on asubscription-based model, giving clients a fast, stable, experienced UI/UX design team that integrates into their workflow.
Who we’re looking for?
Someone who can both find the right companiesย โ reading the signals that tell you a SaaS product needs design help right now.
And reaching out to leads, starting a conversation, discovering the pain points and asking the one question that makes them tell you what’s actually broken. By the time you hand a lead to a Business Development Manager, you should know what hurts and how UI/UX design could help them resolve the pain.
You’ll work alongside Kateryna Kruhlova and a team of experienced lead generation specialists, inside a department that already has defined ICPs, clear KPIs and a transparent pipeline.
Requirements
What you’ll do:
Finding the right companies
โ Research and identify potential leads using LinkedIn Sales Navigator, Clay, Claude and other AI tools, job boards and company websites
โ Read the signals that a company needs design help: hiring for design roles, a recent raise, a rebrand, a product launch, a framework migration
โ Qualify against our ICP before anyone spends time on a call
Starting and holding the conversation
โ Write first messages on LinkedIn and email that read like a person wrote them
โ Keep the conversation going after the first reply โ ask the questions that surface what’s actually wrong with their product or their design process
โ Work out who you’re really talking to, and whether that person can decide anything
โ Handle the usual objections in writing โ “we have an in-house designer”, “not right now”, “just send me your rates” โ without pushing for a call too early
โ Book discovery calls for Business Development Managers, and hand them a lead with context: what hurts, who decides, what they’ve already tried
Required skills:
โ 1+ year of hands-on B2B lead generation experience, preferably in IT, product design or SaaS
โ Experience taking a lead from the first reply through to a booked call
โ Comfortable asking diagnostic questions in writing, and patient enough to let a conversation run over several exchanges
โ Strong understanding of ICP and the lead qualification process
โ Able to recognise when a lead isn’t a fit and say so, rather than booking a call to hit a number
โ Ability to write creative, personalised, compelling outreach for both LinkedIn and email
โ Strong written English (B2+)
โ Experience working to KPIs and improving messaging performance on the evidence
โ Solid experience with LinkedIn Sales Navigator, Apollo or similar
โ You use AI for research, personalisation and speed โ not to write the message for you.
Would be a plus
โ Hands-on experience with automation tools (Closely, Clay, Lusha, Sendspark)
โ A well-developed LinkedIn profile, or experience building and growing one
What you can expect:
โ Mature processes: defined ICPs, clear KPIs, an organised workflow and a transparent bonus system
โ Real autonomy: your hypotheses, your messaging style and your judgement on who’s worth pursuing all matter
โ A supportive team: direct communication, realistic expectations, fast feedback
โ Professional growth: access to analytics, room to experiment, a data-driven approach
