What You Get To Do Everyday

• Build and manage your own outbound sales pipeline by reconnecting with past clients and developing new opportunities
• Assume ownership of active consignor books during Concierge and Inside Sales leaves of absence, seamlessly continuing relationships, maintaining momentum, and driving opportunities through to close
• Build real conversations, not just contact attempts, engaging consignors across phone, text, email, and chat, and guiding them through the full journey from qualification through close
• Work with agility in a hybrid position, moving fluidly between prospecting and closing as your coverage assignments shift week to week
• Bridge naturally across teams, picking up on how BDR, Field Sales, and Inside Sales workflows connect, and keep your CRM records accurate across every book you touch
• Own your performance and your trajectory — track your numbers, know what they tell you, and use that insight to improve. At The RealReal, strong performance opens real doors: reps who master this hybrid role build a clear path toward Inside Sales leadership and beyond

What You Bring To The Role

Minimum Requirements

• 1–3 years of sales experience with a track record of consistently hitting or exceeding your numbers, and you're comfortable owning a full book independently, from first outreach through close
• A natural communicator who builds rapport quickly, stays composed under pressure, and keeps a conversation moving with confidence and care
• You keep multiple priorities moving without dropping details, and your curiosity shows up in conversations — you listen for what consignors actually need
• Clear and compelling across every channel, whether you're on the phone, firing off a text, or crafting a follow-up email
• Confident closing consignors, not just qualifying them, and agile enough to move easily between prospecting and closing without missing a beat when priorities shift
• Self-directed and accountable, with sound judgment and high integrity in how you manage relationships and make decisions, especially when things are ambiguous
• Hungry to grow, you take feedback seriously and iterate on your approach, and you're a natural bridge-builder across teams, picking up on how BDR, Field, and Inside Sales workflows connect
• Available full-time (40 hours/week)

Preferred Requirements

• A passion for fashion, luxury, or resale — you get excited about what we sell and who we serve
