About Megaport
We’re not your typical tech company – and we don’t want to be. Megaport is the global leader in Network as a Service (NaaS), and has transformed the way businesses connect to the cloud, data centers, and each other. We’re publicly listed on the Australian Stock Exchange and partnered with the biggest names in tech like Amazon, Microsoft, Google, Oracle, IBM, and more. Headquartered in Brisbane with a crew of over 600 people spread across Asia-Pacific, Europe, and the Americas, our employees enjoy an environment that is collaborative, supportive, and (actually) fun.
Our Team Culture
We’re a team of problem solvers, pixel pushers, code slingers, and cloud fanatics. Culture is more than a poster on the wall here – collaboration beats hierarchy, curiosity fuels our growth, and everyone’s voice matters. We take our work seriously, but not ourselves. We work across time zones to execute on our global vision, trust each other to get things done, and never compromise our values for commercial gain. Most importantly, we place our customers at the center of everything we do.
We’re committed to increasing representation in the tech industry and welcome applicants from all backgrounds. Don’t meet every requirement? That’s okay. If you’re excited about this role, we encourage you to apply.
The Role

Identify and source sales opportunities that align with the ideal customer profile for Megaport for the purposes of maximizing solution value and product adoption.
Manage & interact with prospects via our website live chat tool.
Work side by side with Megaport Sales Executives and other Megaport sellers to help drive Megaport revenue growth.
Acquire, update and maintain contact information within the Salesforce CRM, providing the account team with information to ensure opportunities are understood and next steps are clearly identified. Work in coordination with sales executives, solution architects and broader POD account teams to identify potential customers, qualify and schedule demonstrations.
Keep informed on new products, services, and other general information of interest to customers, through successful completion of sales training and self-study.
