As an Inbound Growth Specialist (iGS), you are the first human touchpoint for a high volume of inbound demo requests and free Klaviyo accounts. You provide fast, high-quality first interactions with Klaviyo's smallest accounts to create a seamless experience from first touch through purchase.

This team sits within the Marketing organization as part of the Growth motion and partners closely with Sales, Business Development, Product, and Customer Success.

• Run consultative, decision-driven demos focused on one-call closes whenever possible for smaller opportunities.
• Do targeted business discovery to understand goals, urgency, and fit.

• Own and work a high-velocity pipeline, using strong prioritization and time management to maximize new logo acquisition.

This role is a proven stepping stone into Account Executive and other closing roles in sales, while also opening doors into other go-to-market paths such as customer success, marketing, enablement, or operations.

• Collaborate cross-functionally and with marketing and sales management to improve our overall customer experience, including creating a structured feedback loop on product, web experience, onboarding experience, and other key customer touchpoints
• Demonstrate substantive knowledge of e-commerce, SMS and email marketing
• Perform other related duties as assigned

Who You Are

• Have previous academic, work and/or internship experience with some transferable skills (sales, customer service, support, retail, hospitality, etc.)
• Have a BA/BS or equivalent
• Excited, motivated, and inspired by exceeding goals and continuously learning
• Thoughtful, engaging, energetic, and a self-initiator
• Experience or the ability to operate in a fast-paced, high-volume environment
• Detail-oriented with strong time management and prioritization skills
