Transforming Circular Economy
Embrace our Mission
Circularity for everyone! We are on a mission to help people recover the value embedded in their pre-owned goods, transforming them into currency, and enabling brands to sell more sustainably. We’ve built a unique AI-powered, product-centric platform that connects retailers, consumers, and professional used-goods buyers. As we scale rapidly across Europe, we’re raising the bar for sustainability in one of the largest markets worldwide.
Live by our Culture
We foster autonomy within our team, driven by our mission and the belief that 'culture eats strategy for breakfast.' In our view, agile management, long-term planning, and a deductive approach often fall short-only execution and tangible results truly matter. We believe in shared ownership of the company and learning through experimentation.
Join our Team
We are highly focussed on people and work relentlessly to put the best possible team together. Veliuers have worked in some of the best startups worldwide: Senso, Palantir, Reddit, Meta, Scalapay, Sibill, ScaleAi, Satispay and more!
We secured our 4m USD pre-seed round in July 2025 and we have giga office in Milan (Italy).
Compensation Package
1000/m EUR
Meal vouchers
Potential relocation bonus and travel-to-office budget
Why we're hiring for this role
Veliu Pro is growing fast in a market that's ripe for disruption. We need someone hungry enough to pick up the phone, send the message, and figure out what works - and smart enough to learn from every rep. This is an early bet. On you.
What you'll do
You'll run outbound. For real, from day one. Concretely:
You'll execute outbound outreach to professional buyers - dealers, resellers, luxury boutiques - across email, Instagram, WhatsApp, and direct calls.
You'll work from curated lead lists and learn how to prioritize and personalize at scale.
You'll run first-touch conversations to qualify interest and book meetings for the sales team.
You'll track your activity, results, and learnings - and bring that feedback into the team.
You'll iterate on messaging, experiment with approaches, and develop your own sales instinct.
You won't be shadowing. You'll be selling.
Who we're looking for
No formal sales experience required. What we do need is evidence that you're wired for this.
You'll recognize yourself if:
You've sold something - a project, an idea, a product - even if it was never a job title.
You've started something: a side project, a small business, a community, anything that required you to get others on board.
You're not intimidated by rejection. You're curious about it.
You're competitive in a way that drives you, not just on paper.
You communicate with clarity and confidence, even when the answer isn't rehearsed.
You want to grow fast - in skill, in responsibility, in earnings - and you understand that non-linear growth requires non-linear effort.
Language: Italian native or ultra fluent in Italian.
Why Veliu?
This is not a coffee-and-spreadsheets internship.
From day one you'll have real targets, real conversations, and real skin in the game. The growth here is non-linear - the more you perform, the faster you move. We've designed this role to turn the right person into a full SDR, and beyond, faster than any traditional path would.
If you're serious about a career in sales or entrepreneurship, there is no better training ground than closing your first deals inside a fast-moving startup.
