Business Development Representative

Rise (joinrise.co) is a next-gen technology company building the future of work.

We are an early-stage company, backed by leading VCs, angels, and operators. In just a few months, we’ve worked with hundreds of leading companies and thousands of professionals to help people find jobs they love. 

If you have been in the job search process for a while, you know the pain point we are trying to solve. Our platform and early engagement philosophy enable professionals to build careers on their own terms. 

We are looking for a master communicator as our Business Development Representative who is passionate about helping people elevate their careers and Rise up.

Why work with Rise 

We are an entirely remote and distributed team – and big believers in workplace flexibility. If you need to duck out to run an errand, of course, we know that life is more important. Although we’re still quite small, we’re committed to building a strong culture from day one. We succeed when you succeed, tell us what you want to do next, and we’ll do our dang best to get you there. As a team, we’re dreamers who know how to get down to business; we do Thankful Thursdays every week, virtual team events every month, and as avid travelers, we try to do an offsite quarterly (last one was in Playa Del Carmen Mexico!) to collaborate in person. We think work should be fun, engaging, and fulfilling. This sounds like you, we welcome you to join us on this journey.
