About ProAnalyst

ProAnalyst is a data analytics & BI consulting firm - we deliver dashboards, data pipelines, and analytics teams for clients across the US, Australia, and India, with a growing AI service line. We're scaling our outbound sales motion, and this is a ground-floor role to grow with it.

Role Overview

You'll own lead generation and outbound outreach - finding the right prospects, getting in front of them, and booking qualified conversations for the sales team to close. We'll train you on the process and tools; you bring the energy, consistency, and willingness to learn. This is a pipeline role, not a content or design role.

What You'll Do

• Lead collection & list building - Research and build targeted prospect lists matched to our ideal customer profile (companies hiring for data/BI/analytics work, contract/staffing buyers, consulting decision-makers).
• Outbound outreach - Send personalized, multi-step outreach to decision-makers across LinkedIn and email, including hiring-signal and job-post based prospecting.
• Contract / C2C prospecting - Identify and reach out to corp-to-corp prospects and partners for contract and staff-augmentation opportunities.
• Run outreach sequences - Operate and maintain multi-touch outreach workflows; keep prospect data clean and organized.
• CRM upkeep - Log every touch, track stages, and share simple weekly updates.
• Lead qualification & scheduling - Qualify leads, book discovery calls, and hand off to the sales team.
• Learn & iterate - Test messaging and segments; double down on what gets replies.

• Comfortable with computers and eager to learn new sales/automation tools quickly.
• Organized, consistent, and self-motivated - you follow through daily without being chased.
• Comfortable with US/AU time-zone overlap for outreach.

Nice to Have

• Internship or project experience in sales, marketing, or business development.
• Curiosity about data/analytics, BI, or IT services.
• Any hands-on exposure to LinkedIn outreach, CRMs, or outreach tools.

• Training on modern outbound tools and a real, repeatable sales playbook.
• Clear growth path as the sales function scales.
