Job description

Description

Go Vocal, a global govtech scale-up, is looking for a purpose-driven Business Development Manager to help grow our client base across the Benelux. If you care deeply about strengthening democracy and love working with the public sector, this role is for you. You’ll be a key driver of our growth in this key market, signing new cities and shaping our presence in this key market.

What will you do?

Grow our client base

  • Own the full sales cycle, from discovery to demo to close.

  • Source leads through outbound outreach, referrals, and by being our boots on the ground at public sector events.

Build public sector relationships

  • Develop a deep understanding of local government challenges and position Go Vocal as a trusted partner.

  • Tailor your sales approach to public sector needs and decision-making dynamics.

Collaborate cross-functionally

  • Drive tender and proposal processes with support from Ops, marketing, and product.

  • Work together with the sales and Flanders teams to align on strategy.

Requirements

Who are you?

  • You have 3–5 years of sales experience, with a minimum of 2 years in SaaS sales, ideally with experience selling to the public sector.

  • You are outcome-driven, self-motivated, and thrive on owning your market and pipeline from prospecting to closing.

  • You are proficient with CRM tools (Salesforce) , outreach automation (Outreach.io) , and LinkedIn Sales Navigator, and use a data-driven approach to manage your funnel.

  • You are a consultative seller, comfortable with cold calling and can confidently engage prospects over the phone at different stages of the sales process.

  • You understand the importance of forecast accuracy and discovery frameworks; we use SPICED.

  • You are an excellent communicator who connects with people across channels and formats.

  • You are collaborative by default and thrive in a fast-paced, mission-driven team.

  • You are based in Flanders and can regularly join us in our Brussels office.

  • You are fluent in Dutch and English; French is a plus.

👉 You don’t need to tick every box. If you’re excited about our mission and bring the drive to grow, we want to hear from you.

What’s in it for you?

  • The chance to build social impact at scale through public sector innovation.

  • A key role in our expansion in Belgium, the Netherlands and Luxemburg and in our international growth (50-person team, 20+ countries).

  • A mission-driven and collaborative team culture.

  • Competitive salary: €65,000–€85,000 OTE (50% base / 50% variable).

  • Perks: full remote flexibility, 26+ PTO days, annual global team retreat, training budget, and more.

👉 Go Vocal is committed to being a diverse and inclusive workplace. While we are proud of our cultural diversity and gender parity, we are aware of the limited racial diversity in our team and are committed to making a change. We strongly encourage people of different backgrounds, experiences, and perspectives to apply.
