Sales Support Intern

Channext is a fast-growing channel SaaS scale-up based in Utrecht. We're on a mission to connect vendors and their partners by helping them to improve their sales and marketing efforts through data. Our AI-driven platform is reshaping the channel economy, helping partners and vendors win together. We are a high-performance, fast-growing team of driven professionals who thrive on growth and delivering impact for our customers 🚀

About the role

As a Sales Support Intern at Channext, you'll work shoulder-to-shoulder with our Partner Development Reps as they onboard partners from leading vendors like Apple, Lenovo, and Microsoft onto the Channext platform. You'll own the work that directly supports the sales motion: reconnecting lapsed partners, building the social proof that helps us close the next deals, and keeping the team's pipeline running clean.

This is a hands-on operational role at the heart of a high-performing B2B SaaS sales team. You'll keep the partner engine running smoothly: managing the inbox, maintaining CRM hygiene, running reconnection outreach, and making sure nothing falls through the cracks.

What you'll do

Drive pipeline support

• Win back lapsed partners through outbound calls and email. Every reconnection is a partner you brought back to the platform

• Run testimonial conversations with happy partners and build the social proof library that powers our sales and marketing motion

• Stay on top of partners moving through onboarding and call them up when a new vendor joined Channext and invited them to join their campaigns

Keep the engine running

• Manage the partner inbox and act as the first point of contact for incoming partner conversations

• Provide front-line partner support and escalate where needed

• Keep HubSpot sharp: Clean partner records, close data gaps, and make sure the CRM reflects reality

• Help building lists and source for contacts

• Reporting on reconnections, follow-ups, and testimonial pipeline so the team can see what's working

About you

• You enjoy picking up the phone and can convince with passion and personality

• You're organised and take ownership of your work; you can juggle reconnection outreach, partner follow-ups, and the inbox without dropping the ball

• You have a hands-on mentality and a bias toward action: when something's broken or messy, you fix it rather than wait for someone else to

• You're detail-oriented and comfortable working with data, keeping HubSpot accurate and pulling light reporting doesn't faze you

• You speak and write fluent English

Why this role matters

In this role you'll help support the outbound motion of the full team, bring lapsed partners back into the fold, and build a testimonial library that fuels the next wave of deals. It's a high-leverage seat where your work shows up in the team's numbers from week one and where you'll get a front-row view of how a high-performing B2B SaaS sales team actually runs.
