• Facilitate smooth handovers to the Customer Success team.
  
  
• Sell on Value, Not Just Usage
• Position Mentimeter around solving real business challenges in our three value spaces:
• How to Teach – improving training and knowledge-sharing.
• How to Lead – driving better communication and alignment.
• How to Facilitate – making meetings more productive and engaging.
• Create reliable forecasts and maintain full transparency on pipeline status.
  
  
• Collaborate Cross-Functionally
• Share market insights with Product, Marketing, and Sales teams.
• Work with Sales Ops, Legal, and Enablement to support deal execution.
• Actively contribute to team culture, lifting and inspiring colleagues.

• Support from Marketing, SDRs, Sales Ops, and Customer Success.
  
  
• Exciting Growth & Career Paths

AI and Hiring at Mentimeter
At Mentimeter, we believe AI helps us work smarter - but it never replaces the human assessment, curiosity, and personal connection that define our culture and our hiring. We use AI as a sparring partner: to bounce ideas, bring new perspectives, support structure, and make our work more efficient. But the meaning, decisions, and interactions always come from people. AI strengthens our work, but it does not define it. At Mentimeter, we’re not building an AI-driven hiring process - we’re building a people-first culture, where technology helps us listen, learn, and grow together.

Culture at Mentimeter
At Mentimeter we believe in giving everyone a voice - regardless of who you are. So we build a platform that does just that. Our platform is not only our product but also our organization. A platform where people feel safe, where differences are embraced, a place where you can have fun. We strongly encourage applicants who are people of color, LGBTQ+, women, people with disabilities, and/or formerly incarcerated people, and a college degree is not strictly required. In order to give everyone a voice, we need to be as diverse as our users.
