About this role
Description
🏢 Department: Sales Development
👥 Team: Head of Sales Development & Lead Generation department
📍 Location: Remote
⏳ Employment Type: Full-time
Who we are?
Eleken is a product design partner for SaaS companies. We work on asubscription-based model, giving clients a fast, stable, experienced UI/UX design team that integrates into their workflow.
Who we’re looking for?
Someone who can both find the right companies — reading the signals that tell you a SaaS product needs design help right now.
And reaching out to leads, starting a conversation, discovering the pain points and asking the one question that makes them tell you what’s actually broken. By the time you hand a lead to a Business Development Manager, you should know what hurts and how UI/UX design could help them resolve the pain.
You’ll work alongside Kateryna Kruhlova and a team of experienced lead generation specialists, inside a department that already has defined ICPs, clear KPIs and a transparent pipeline.
Requirements
What you’ll do:
Finding the right companies
- Research and identify potential leads using LinkedIn Sales Navigator, Clay, Claude and other AI tools, job boards and company websites
- Read the signals that a company needs design help: hiring for design roles, a recent raise, a rebrand, a product launch, a framework migration
- Qualify against our ICP before anyone spends time on a call
Starting and holding the conversation
- Write first messages on LinkedIn and email that read like a person wrote them
- Keep the conversation going after the first reply — ask the questions that surface what’s actually wrong with their product or their design process
- Work out who you’re really talking to, and whether that person can decide anything
- Handle the usual objections in writing — “we have an in-house designer”, “not right now”, “just send me your rates” — without pushing for a call too
