- Sitemate has grown from 5 people in 2018 to now over 100, and we’re moving into the next stage of growth! We have a product that customers are strongly engaged with, and every month we get around >400 new leads whilst spending £0 on marketing and 0 cold calling.
- Sitemate’s founders have diverse backgrounds - one coming from engineering on major infrastructure projects; the second coming from product and graphic design. This brings a unique perspective internally where we blend deep industry experience with a passion (obsession) for modern best practices in product design.

What is the working environment like at Sitemate?
- We are very transparent - monthly All Hands meetings provide the team with direct insight into team updates, customer stories, hiring plans and key metrics (NPS, Revenue, Financial Performance). During this All Hands meeting we also hear one ‘life story’ from one of our team each month - learning about different countries and cultures around the world.
- We place an extremely high value on your time - you won’t be spending your days wasting time on fighting internal systems, botched together spreadsheet processes or doing data entry.
- We use best in class systems that are seamlessly integrated to deliver our team the right information at the right time, allowing them to get their work done efficiently and to a very high standard.
- You will have a core and close team around you, but you will also be exposed to and working directly with multiple departments - engineering, product, design, marketing, sales and customer success.
- You will have a high degree of autonomy, as the focus is on outcomes and not hours. If you want to block off a few hours to run a personal errand or block off an hour to pick up the kids from school - no worries. No one will be monitoring your time.
- We are constantly working to minimise the number of group meetings - daily check ins are all done asynchronously (in your own time) each morning. But spontaneous 1:1s or small sessions are strongly encouraged!
What does Sitemate do, exactly?
- Sitemate builds best in class software products for the built world.
- Industrial companies operating in the built world are facing a number of mission critical challenges - changes in work behaviour as Generation Z start to enter the workforce as mobile first users of software, and the drastic shift away from traditional mining to renewable energy projects such as wind farms and solar farms.
- Our first product - Dashpivot, is a platform where industrial style companies streamline and standardise their processes in a new digital format. This new digital format enables them to complete and track work in the field on a mobile or tablet, and automate repetitive tasks and tracking through automated workflows and real-time analytics.
See some of our user reviews for Dashpivot here:
- G2 Crowd
- Trust Radius
What will I be doing day to day in this role?
- Work alongside the Customer Success team to increase touch points with a range of accounts
- Work with our already established clients to start/build relationships, sourcing new POC where required. Setting up business reviews, team training and explore setting up new processes in Dashpivot
- For context we have until recently had limited capacity for pro-active approaches to healthy clients.
- You will need to leverage these relationships to increase customer value (MRR) by expanding the customers use cases, implementation across multiple projects, overall increasing user numbers
- Your KPI’s will be based around these growth opportunities
- Increased touch points will also mitigate potential churn risk for healthy accounts, looping us into key internal conversations and preventing blind sided cancellations
- Your priority will be to reach out and dig into each clients current project status, pain points and keep an ear out for new opportunities within their upcoming projects
- As we release new key features and technology part of your KPI’s will be centred around rolling these systems out to our clients
- We are all hands on here, you will be expected to handle any light customer enquiries or technical questions. Larger opportunities, churn risks and upgrades will be handled by our CS team leaving you free to continue reaching out to clients
What will be the biggest challenges for me in this role?
- Push back from clients- everyone is busy and healthy accounts are notoriously unresponsive. Your job will be to ensure our touch points are genuinely valuable and engage the clients interest
- Although this role has target-based renumeration benefits, this is not a traditional “sales role“ our goal is to help our clients utilise our technology effectively and to their benefit, it's your role to ensure the client understands the product value to close opportunities
- Often opportunities can be difficult to spot without proper investigation, you will need to peel back the layers around a clients pain points and priorities to reveal the opportunity within
- Pace - we move quickly and our expectations are high. There's a lot of information to take on in the initial months which could be daunting for some but for those who like a challenge this role is for you
- We have a strong culture based on core values and standard operating procedures, you may need to unlearn a few things from previous experience
PLEASE Note:
- If you go on our website and enter your email, you will become a lead in our CRM. To avoid this, you can watch videos directly here
- We do not use recruitment partners or services, so please save your time and don't reach out
