Job Description

🌱 About us

Greenly was founded in 2019 by Alexis, Matthieu and Arnaud with one mission: make carbon management as essential as financial management.

Today, we are a global leader in carbon accounting, proudly B-Corp certified and part of the French Tech 120. Our climate suite combines smart data collection with intuitive automation, helping companies measure, reduce, and report their emissions with ease — supported at every step by our in-house climate experts. 💚

More than 3,500 companies in 20+ countries use Greenly to manage their climate strategy: from carbon assessments and life-cycle analyses to SBTi trajectories and compliance with CSRD and CBAM.

We are now a team of 200+ people from 40+ nationalities, based in Paris, London, Barcelona, and New York. 🌎

To date, we’ve tracked over 200 million tons of CO₂ through our platform. Our next milestone: 10,000 clients and one billion tons of CO2 under management.

🌱 Our Values

  • Ambition for climate: Minimize GHG emissions, maximize climate impact
  • Deliver with agility: Work in small increments: fail fast, learn fast, win fast
  • Own your opportunities: Achieve outstanding results by showing initiative and accountability
  • Feedback paves the way: Succeed as a team by helping others progress

🌱 About the team

You’ll join Greenly’s Sales Team, a fast-moving group of 60+ SDRs, Account Executives and Account Managers across France, UK, US, and Europe — all working toward one mission: helping thousands of companies understand, reduce, and follow their climate impact. 🌍⚡️

We work closely with Account Executives, Partnerships, Delivery Operations, and Marketing to build a seamless and predictable pipeline. Every day, SDRs are at the heart of Greenly’s growth: they are the first touchpoint for prospects, and the ambassadors of our climate mission. 🤝

This is a team where you learn fast, move fast, and grow fast! 🚀

🌱 About the role

We’re looking for a driven and curious SDR to fuel our growth in the French market.
Your role: identify high-potential companies, engage decision-makers, understand their needs, and qualify opportunities for the Account Executives.

This is a hands-on commercial role with big impact on company revenue and great career growth opportunities! 💼

In your first months, you will:

  • Identify & map ideal prospects within the French market 🎯
  • Master outreach across all channels: cold calls, email sequences, LinkedIn, events ☎️
  • Deliver strong pitches and adapt your message based on prospect needs
  • Qualify inbound and outbound leads using clear frameworks
  • Maintain a clean CRM and follow your KPIs with ownership
  • Collaborate closely with your Team Lead and AEs on pipeline strategy
  • Contribute to internal projects to improve scripts, processes, and tools 🧩

You will drive:

  • A predictable outbound engine for your region
  • High-quality handovers to AEs
  • Insight loops between prospects, product, and sales
  • Continuous improvement: testing outreach angles, messaging, Ideal Client Profiles (ICPs), and tools 📈

What success looks like in your first year:

  • You consistently hit or exceed your targets
  • You become a top performer on outbound meetings booked
  • You contribute to at least one playbook/process improvement
  • You are taking meaningful steps in your career growth journey 🌟

🌱 Skills to succeed

You’ll thrive in this role if you:

  • Already have concrete SDR experience (internship, apprenticeship, or full-time) and understand the fundamentals of prospecting & qualification
  • Show a strong interest in ESG/climate transition and the desire to learn fast about our sector 🌍
  • Love picking up the phone and speaking with prospects — hunter mindset 💥
  • Demonstrate excellent relational skills: empathy, active listening, and the ability to rephrase needs clearly
  • Are structured, organised, and rigorous in managing your time and pipeline
  • Are a true team player, motivated by collective success before individual wins
  • Learn quickly, welcome feedback, and enjoy being challenged
  • Are fully fluent in French 🇫🇷 and operational in English

Extra points if you:

  • Know lead qualification frameworks (BANT, MEDDIC…)
  • Have experience in SaaS, climate, or tech environment
  • Have been involved in associations, sports teams, or entrepreneurial projects ✨

You might not be a fit if:

  • You don’t enjoy outbound calling
  • You struggle to show curiosity or to ask the right questions
  • You lack dynamism or positive commercial energy ❌
  • You tend to prioritise individual wins over team success
  • You are not motivated by ESG/climate topics
  • You are uncomfortable receiving or applying feedback

    • 📍 Beautiful offices in the heart of Paris (9ᵉ arrondissement)
