Senior Sales Specialist US

Nofence is a Norwegian scale up that has built the world’s first virtual fencing solution for livestock. The technology consists of a solar-powered collar that communicates with an app over the cellular network. Through the app, farmers can set up a new grazing area in seconds, and the long days of installing and moving fences are officially over! This creates better farmer welfare and increased animal welfare. The animals gain access to new areas that were previously impossible to fence in, and the farmer will always have visibility of their location.

With a strong foundation of 3,000+ customers in Norway, we are rapidly expanding in the UK, Spain, and the US. To support this growth, we’re looking for a Senior Sales Specialist to join our dynamic team.

Our US headquarters is in Minneapolis, Minnesota, but we’re building a remote-friendly team across the country. We’re currently hiring in Texas, Oklahoma, Missouri, Kansas, Arkansas, and Tennessee.

Join us on the journey to revolutionize agriculture and create a better everyday life for farmers and animals!

About the role

Your mission will be to follow up with potential and existing customers, currently focusing primarily on inquiries and follow-up calls. However, we’re looking for someone adaptable, proactive, and ready to take on new challenges as our company evolves. If future needs require outreach sales or cold calling, you should be comfortable stepping into that role.
Above all, we prioritize building strong customer relationships. This means understanding our customers' needs and guiding them to make the most of our product. While we provide full product training, previous experience working with farmers is a great advantage.

About Nofence

Managing livestock has always been a challenge. Humanity has tried everything from herding with dogs to walling the animals in with barbed wire, electric, and wooden fences, but these are costly and time-consuming solutions and often in conflict with the local wildlife. It has also left vast areas of potential pasture overgrown and underutilized.

Until now.

Enter virtual fences. What started as a small group of farmers and engineers with a big idea has become Nofence – the world’s first virtual fencing solution for livestock. Curious about how it works? Find out more here.
