About Zeller
At Zeller, we’re champions for businesses of all sizes, and proud to be a fast-growing Australian scale-up reimagining business banking and payments.
We believe in a level playing field, where all businesses benefit from access to smarter payments and financial services solutions that accelerate their cash flow, help them get paid faster, and give them a better understanding of their finances. So we’re hard at work building the tools to make it happen.
Zeller is growing fast, backed by leading VCs, and brings together a global team of passionate payment and tech industry professionals. With an exciting roadmap of innovative new products under development, we are building a supportive and high performing team to inspire change in the outdated banking solutions.

To be successful in this role you must be able to understand the diverse business needs of our merchants on the fly.

On any given day you will:
- Accelerate Zeller’s sales pipeline by qualifying and converting warm inbound leads, marketing qualified leads, and prospecting for new business opportunities (BDR-generated leads);
- Conduct exploratory calls with prospect merchants to effectively qualify sales opportunities before they’re passed to an Account Executive;
- Proactively contact prospective merchants via a high-touch strategy including cold-calling, email and LinkedIn outreach;
- Help to build, adapt and optimise best-practice outreach sequences, lead-generation playbooks, and qualification criteria to exceed individual and team performance targets and deliver an exception merchant experience;
- Schedule meetings and calls between qualified merchants and Zeller Account Executives, ensuring to always deliver a warm handover;
- Research and identify market gaps and opportunities to accelerate Zeller’s growth, then construct comprehensive and detailed lead lists targeting these growth areas;
- Stay up-to-date with SME, technology, payments, competitor and business trends that are relevant to Zeller’s merchants.
Your skills and experience:
- 1+ years of experience in one (or more) of the following roles: Sales Development Representative; Business Development Representative; Customer Success Representative or Product / Onboarding Specialist;
- Hands-on experience with multiple prospecting techniques (including cold calls and outreach);
- Track record of achieving sales-performance or activity-based goals;
- Experience with CRM software (e.g. Hubspot, Salesforce);
- Excellent written, verbal, conversational and listening skills;
- Proficient and demonstrable experience in prospecting, identifying target customers, evaluating buyer interest, recognising decision-making processes and qualifying customers;

What you need to know about the Melbourne Tech Scene
Home to 650 biotech companies, 10 major research institutes and nine universities, Melbourne is among one of the top cities for biotech. In fact, some of the greatest medical advancements were conceptualized and developed here, including Symex Lab's "lab-on-a-chip" solution that monitors hormones to predict ovulation for conception, and Denteric's vaccine for periodontal gum disease. Yet, the thousands of people working in the city's healthtech sector are just getting started, to say nothing of the tech advancements across all other sectors.
