Posted on 13 april 2026

Role Overview

This is a sales role focused on new business and following up on inbound leads. You are responsible for the entire journey: from first contact to signed contract. You're not selling a standard product, instead, you work with the client to determine the right solution:

  • SaaS (Total Benefits)
  • consultancy
  • or a combination of both

You work directly with the founder, giving you direct impact on revenue, positioning, and growth.

šŸ‘‰ You join as one of the first commercial hires and, with success, have the opportunity to grow into a leadership role and help build the commercial team.

What you'll be doing

Converting inbound leads
You follow up on leads quickly, qualify sharply, and bring organisations to a first substantive conversation.

Building an outbound pipeline
You proactively reach out to new organisations and actively build your own pipeline.

Managing the full sales cycle
From first conversation to signature. You maintain momentum and close deals.

Discovery & advisory
You analyse how an organisation's benefits are structured and determine the right solution: SaaS, consultancy, or hybrid.

Delivering demos
You demonstrate how Total Benefits works and translate this to the client's context.

Negotiating & closing
You discuss proposals, pricing, and contracts, and bring deals to a close.

Collaborating
You ensure smooth handovers and share insights with product development.

Improving & scaling
You help further develop and scale the sales process.

Who we're looking for

You take ownership of results and don't wait to be told. You understand client needs and translate them into concrete solutions.

  • 2-5 years of experience in B2B sales (SaaS, consultancy, or both)
  • Experience with the full sales cycle
  • Strong in discovery and consultative selling
  • You think in solutions, not products
  • You can engage effectively with HR, MT, and senior leadership
  • Self-starter: you build your own pipeline
  • Structured and organised
  • Entrepreneurial and builder mindset
  • Fluent in Dutch (English is a plus)
  • Competitive and resilient
  • AI-minded: you're open to new tools and use technology to work smarter

Why you'd want to work at Not Secondary

  • Salary based on experience
  • 27 vacation days
  • Budget for training and development
  • A key role in a growing SaaS and consultancy company
  • Working with strong clients (including Loyens & Loeff, Albron, Scheuten, Stepp)
  • Working directly with the founder
  • Significant influence on strategy and product development
  • Full setup (tools, laptop, etc.)
  • Hybrid working possible

Frequently Asked Questions

Total Benefits is the first Employee Benefits Intelligence Platform in the Netherlands. It helps organisations centralise, benchmark, manage and continuously optimise their employee benefits.

Unlike traditional HR software, Total Benefits is not focused on HR administration or payroll processing. Instead, it is designed to collect, enrich and apply knowledge, benchmark insights and practical expertise related to employee benefits.

At the core of the platform is Benefits Intelligence: the collection, enrichment and application of knowledge, benchmark information, market insights and technology related to employee benefits. This enables organisations to make better-informed decisions about their benefits strategy.

Within the platform you can combine, among other things:

  • the Benefits Database, containing more than 200 fully developed employee benefits, organised across 12 benefit themes;
  • benchmark information and practical market insights;
  • governance and compliance support;
  • optimisation workflows;
  • communication and implementation tools;
  • AI-powered support through the Benefits Assistant.

Total Benefits is not a one-time assessment or a standalone software tool. It is an intelligence platform that supports organisations in building, managing and continuously improving their employee benefits strategy.

As organisations continue to use the platform, they gain increasing insight into:

  • how their benefits compare with the market;
  • which benefits are most relevant to their workforce;
  • where optimisation opportunities exist;
  • which trends and developments are shaping the future of employee benefits.

The goal: helping organisations move from fragmented employee benefits towards better-informed decision-making and a future-proof benefits strategy.

The name Total Benefits is inspired by the well-known HR concept of Total Rewards: the complete value an employer offers employees, including compensation, benefits, development opportunities, company culture and the overall employee experience.

Since our platform focuses specifically on everything beyond base salary, we chose the name Total Benefits.

Within the platform, employee benefits are organised into 12 core benefit themes, including wellbeing, mobility, flexibility, sustainable employability and meaningful work. This creates greater structure, consistency and visibility across the entire employee benefits package.

Built on this central knowledge layer, organisations can not only manage their employee benefits, but also benchmark, optimise and make better-informed decisions for the future.

Benefits Intelligence is the process of collecting, enriching and applying knowledge, data and market insights related to employee benefits.

By combining consultancy expertise, benchmark information, practical market insights and technology, Total Benefits enables organisations to make better-informed decisions about their employee benefits strategy.

Benefits Intelligence forms the foundation of every capability within Total Benefits — from the Benefits Database and benchmark insights to governance, AI-powered assistance and future platform innovations.
