Sales & GTM intern
Help build our sales engine through prospect research, outreach, coached discovery conversations, and hands-on go-to-market experiments.
About the role
This is a hands-on sales internship at an early-stage AI startup. You'll work directly with Jarne Verstraete to find the right companies, start conversations, follow up with prospects, and improve the systems behind our go-to-market work. After onboarding, and depending on your growth, you'll progressively prepare, conduct, and follow up discovery and sales conversations under Jarne's coaching. You'll also learn how to read customer economics and commercial metrics such as conversion, CAC, LTV, and churn. The role is remote-first. If you prefer or your programme requires it, you can work onsite in Antwerp up to five days a week, where Stijn is available onsite. Jarne remains your primary content supervisor for sales and GTM, with regular coaching, and we can arrange occasional in-person moments elsewhere.
What you'll do
- Research target companies and the people we should speak with
- Build and maintain structured prospect lists
- Prepare and execute outreach through email, LinkedIn, and other relevant channels
- Follow up with leads and keep our CRM accurate
- As you grow into the role, prepare, conduct, and follow up discovery and sales conversations with Jarne's coaching
- Learn to analyse customer economics and commercial metrics, including conversion, CAC, LTV, and churn
- Test new messages, audiences, and go-to-market ideas
- Share what you learn and help turn successful experiments into repeatable playbooks
Who we're looking for
- You are studying sales, business, economics, marketing, or a related field
- You communicate clearly in Dutch or English. French is not required
- You are curious, proactive, and comfortable taking ownership
- You work in a structured way and follow up consistently
- You are interested in B2B sales, startups, and AI
- Previous sales experience is welcome, but not required
What you'll get
- Direct coaching from Jarne, including feedback on discovery and sales conversations
- Real ownership and work that directly influences our pipeline
- A flexible start date and internship duration
- Remote-first work, with the option to work onsite in Antwerp up to five days a week
- If your programme requires onsite attendance, Stijn is available in Antwerp; occasional in-person moments elsewhere can be arranged
- A possible job opportunity afterwards if there is a strong mutual fit
