**Workplace:** remote
## Description
### ROLE OVERVIEW
We are looking for a **GTM Execution Assistant** to support a growing technology business by taking repetitive go-to-market execution work off the leadership team's plate.
This is an **execution-focused role rather than a strategic growth position**. The successful candidate will be responsible for consistently researching prospects, assessing their fit against a defined Ideal Customer Profile (ICP), conducting email and LinkedIn outreach, and managing responses.
The ideal candidate is highly consistent, self-managed and comfortable performing repetitive, high-volume tasks without requiring constant supervision or follow-up.

### KEY REQUIREMENTS
- Approximately **2–4 years of experience** in prospecting, outbound sales, lead generation, business development or a similar execution-focused role.

### EXPERIENCE WITH TOOLS

- Can follow the same process accurately every day.

- Has strong written communication skills.
- Is comfortable working independently.
- Is highly detail-oriented.
- Responds well to direct and concise feedback.

Candidates who are primarily looking for
- Management responsibilities
- Strategic ownership
- Rapid career progression
- A growth or marketing leadership position
may not be suited to the role.
The position is best suited to someone who genuinely enjoys **consistent, process-driven execution**.
