Hungry for Growth?
Ready to Accelerate?

We are actively seeking a relentless, high-energy sales professional prepared to press the accelerator on their career. Whether you are a proven medior closer or a highly coachable, rising star possessing an unstoppable drive, this is your arena.

At MakeWaves, we do not simply sell services; we sell measurable business transformation. If you possess the unyielding hustle to hunt, the strategic intelligence to consult, and the ambition to scale your professional trajectory rapidly, it is time to join the wave.

Who We Are

MakeWaves is a premier B2B Conversion Agency. We assist ambitious companies in abandoning guesswork to turn digital engagement into hard, quantifiable revenue. We operate with radical transparency, keeping "all cards on the table," and we prioritize a culture founded on mutual trust and elite performance.

We have zero tolerance for corporate fluff; we are entirely focused on results. Operating as a true extension of our clients' teams, we empower our personnel to thrive and make a lasting, definitive impact.

The Role: Consultative Prospecting
and Pipeline Velocity

You will serve as the tip of the spear for MakeWaves' internal growth, bearing the responsibility for identifying, engaging, and closing ambitious B2B prospects. Your daily operations will be defined by proactive, strategic outbound campaigns, encompassing intelligent networking, cold outreach, and sophisticated social selling via LinkedIn. You will be aided in this effort by our internal marketing team.

You will conduct profound discovery calls, refusing to merely pitch services. Instead, you will uncover complex operational bottlenecks and position MakeWaves' digital marketing and HubSpot solutions as the definitive strategic answer.

You will take rigorous ownership of our CRM, managing the entire sales cycle from initial contact to successful closing, ensuring a healthy and predictable pipeline. Crucially, you will act as a sponge for knowledge, receiving direct, hands-on coaching from agency leadership to continuously refine your pitch and evolve into an elite sales professional.

The skills you bring

Between 1 and 3 years of experience in B2B sales, SaaS business development, or agency growth roles, demonstrating a track record of hustle.
An incredibly hungry, resilient, and proactive mindset ("gas geven"); you view rejection as a learning opportunity and are highly coachable.
A natural, confident communicator who can command attention during high-stakes meetings, possessing strong commercial drive and self-motivation.
Complete professional fluency in Dutch and English, characterized by clarity, persuasive power, and the ability to articulate complex value propositions.

What You'll Be Doing

Identify and engage target accounts through relentless, strategic outbound prospecting, including cold calling, email, and social selling.
Conduct consultative discovery calls to uncover complex business challenges and effectively position MakeWaves' digital solutions.
Manage the full sales cycle within the CRM, taking rigorous ownership of pipeline health, forecasting, and successful deal closure.
Collaborate seamlessly with internal growth and performance strategists to craft highly tailored, irresistible proposals for prospective clients.

What to expect

We offer a highly competitive base salary coupled with an attractive, performance-driven commission structure designed to heavily reward your hustle and quota attainment. We also provide a definitive launchpad for your career: direct mentorship from managing partners, selling courses from leading SAAS businesses, a dynamic culture completely devoid of red tape, and the unencumbered freedom to forge your own success.

A highly competitive base salary augmented by a comprehensive suite of Belgian extra-legal benefits

Premium Company Car, ensuring you arrive at your meetings in style.

Daily Meal Vouchers and annual Eco-Vouchers

Premium Hospitalization and Group Pension Insurance

Your own FIP budget

Freedom to test your ideas, take ownership, and make a real impact
