Sales Development Representative (Italian Speaker) at Canonical

This role is ideal for a high-achieving, tech-savvy professional with native or near-native Italian language skills who wants to build a career in enterprise software sales. While listed as mid-level, the position emphasizes academic excellence and a "sales academy" environment, making it a great fit for someone ambitious who understands the business implications of open-source technology and cloud computing. The company offers a robust benefits package, including a $2,000 annual professional development budget and a performance-based incentive structure. A unique highlight is the opportunity for global travel to "sprints" and industry conferences, providing significant exposure to international teams and major partners like Google, Amazon, and Microsoft. Despite being home-based in the EMEA region, the role focuses on high-level collaboration and pipeline generation for major cloud and AI projects. **You might be a good fit if you...** * Are fluent in Italian and English with a passion for the Linux ecosystem and Open Source. * Have a track record of academic success and a disciplined, persistent approach to outreach. * Enjoy "hunting" for new business and are comfortable engaging with senior stakeholders. * Value continuous learning and want to leverage a dedicated $2k budget for career growth.
