๐Ÿข About Standard Fleet

Standard Fleet is an early-stage climate tech startup streamlining electric fleet operations for a greener future. As a remote-first company, they offer the autonomy and impact of a growth-stage startup while tackling the critical challenge of electrifying commercial fleets. This is a chance to join a mission-driven team at the forefront of sustainable transportation.

About This Role

This role is pivotal in accelerating the transition to electric fleets by making Standard Fleet's solution accessible to more customers.

Your morning starts with reviewing CRM dashboards and pipeline reports, then diving into building a new nurture sequence in HubSpot.
