What Does the Job Involve?
This is a senior individual contributor role suited to an experienced sales enablement practitioner who can hit the ground running and self-manage in a flat, high-trust environment.

The Sales Enablement Specialist is responsible for equipping Smartly’s revenue teams with the content, tools, training, and competitive intelligence required to execute high-quality, consistent sales conversations across all segments and channels. This role translates Marketing’s positioning and messaging architecture into practical, usable sales assets, including pitch decks, battle cards, objection handling guides, talk tracks, case studies, and onboarding materials for new sales hires. The Sales Enablement Specialist ensures that every customer-facing team member can confidently and accurately represent Smartly’s value proposition, differentiation, and product capabilities. This means you will:

• Create, organise, and continuously improve the library of sales-facing content, including pitch decks, one-pagers, proposal templates, case studies, ROI calculators, and segment-specific messaging guides. Ensure all materials are current, aligned to Smartly's positioning architecture, and easily accessible to revenue teams. Content is built to support the full sales cycle from prospecting through to close.
• Develop and maintain competitive intelligence resources that give sales teams clear, actionable insight into how Smartly compares against key competitors. This includes battle cards, win/loss analysis summaries, competitive positioning guides, and objection-handling frameworks. Monitor market and competitor activity to ensure intelligence remains current and relevant.
• Design structured onboarding programmes for new sales hires and ongoing training initiatives for existing team members. Training covers product knowledge, value messaging, objection handling, demo best practices, and segment-specific selling approaches. Partner with the Head of Marketing, GM Sales, and Product to ensure training content reflects the latest product capabilities and market positioning.
• Work closely with Sales and RevOps to identify gaps in conversion performance and design targeted enablement interventions, whether content, training, or process improvements. Use pipeline data and win/loss feedback to continuously refine the enablement programme and ensure it addresses real execution challenges rather than assumed needs.
• Own the organisation and governance of Smartly's sales enablement tools and content platforms, ensuring materials are structured, searchable, and version-controlled. Establish clear processes for content updates, retirement of outdated materials, and feedback loops from the sales team on content effectiveness.
