Role Overview
We’re hiring a commercially sharp, curious, and strategic sales professional to join our GTM team.

You’ll work closely with our Sales & Marketing team to:
- Map high-potential target accounts and contacts
- Build outbound strategies tailored to individual organisations
- Execute smart, research and insight-led outreach to strategic stakeholders
- Support initial qualification, discovery and early-stage engagement
- Help position CitySwift as a trusted partner within global transport operators and authorities (in target regions/segments)
