Account Development Representative - UK

Who We Are

Samsara (NYSE: IOT) is the pioneer of the Connected Operations Cloud, which is a platform that enables organizations that depend on physical operations to harness Internet of Things (IoT) data to develop actionable insights and improve their operations. At Samsara, we are helping improve the safety, efficiency and sustainability of the physical operations that power our global economy. Representing more than 40% of global GDP, these industries are the infrastructure of our planet, including agriculture, construction, field services, transportation, and manufacturing — and we are excited to help digitally transform their operations at scale.

About The Role

As an Account Development Representative (ADR) at Samsara, you will be trained, both on the job and with formal training programs led by a world‑class team of sales professionals, to take on your next role as closing Account Executive. On a daily basis, you will be responsible for sourcing pipelines for our EMEA business, generating opportunities via outbound outreach. This is a hybrid position requiring 2 days per week in our London office and 3 days working remotely, open to candidates based in United Kingdom. Relocation assistance will not be provided for this role.

• You want to be with the best: Samsara’s high‑performance Sales culture means you’ll be surrounded by the best and challenged to go farther than you have before.
