Client Acquisition Associate

CodeLink is a trusted software engineering and AI services partner working with global clients across the US, Asia, and beyond. We build high-impact technology products with world-class engineering teams, and we're growing our US market presence aggressively.

Description

We're looking for a sharp, curious, and strategically-minded Client Acquisition Associate to join our lean Sales team.

This is a high-leverage role at the intersection of research, strategy, and relationship-building. You will help shape how CodeLink identifies, engages, and wins high-value clients in the US market.

You’ll ensure every outreach is precision-targeted while building and continuously improving the foundation of our sales pipeline.

What You'll Do

Prospect Research & Outreach

• Identify and build lists of high-value prospects matching CodeLink's Ideal Customer Profile
• Deep-dive into target companies and decision-makers to uncover context, needs, and buying signals
• Craft personalized outreach sequences in collaboration with our SDR to build a pipeline and drive meeting bookings
• Track engagement patterns and refine outreach sequence to drive a higher conversion rate
• Maintain and enrich a live high-value prospect database with up-to-date contact info, company context, and buying signals

Event Intelligence

• Work directly with C-level leadership to identify the right events and conferences to prioritize
• Map event landscapes — speakers, sponsors, attendees — and identify the highest-value people to connect with and how best to approach them
• Collaborate with the Sales team to execute outreach campaigns to generate a pipeline of booked meetings for Founders’ onsite trips.
• Capture and structure post-event insights: new contacts, conversation notes, follow-up actions, and relationship status updates
• Map event landscapes, attendee lists, and target accounts to maximize meeting opportunities

LinkedIn Execution

• Own the day-to-day LinkedIn presence of our Founder: drafting connection requests, crafting DM responses, nurturing existing relationships, and maintaining an active, credible profile
• Monitor ongoing conversations, knowing when to engage, when to warm up a connection, and when to escalate
• Build and grow a targeted network of decision-makers aligned to our ICP with a long-term relationship mindset, not a short-term pipeline view

Sales Operations

• Maintain a clean, structured, and actionable CRM system
• Produce weekly research briefs and pipeline updates for the sales team
• Identify and implement tools, workflows, or data sources to improve lead generation efficiency
• Build scalable processes that enhance how we generate and qualify the pipeline

Requirements

• 2–4 years of experience in executive search, professional services, consulting, or research-intensive commercial roles
• Strong communicator in English (written and verbal) - able to craft sharp, thoughtful, and non-generic messages
• Skilled in navigating stakeholders and building relationships through digital channels (LinkedIn, email, etc.)
• Hands-on experience with LinkedIn Sales Navigator and CRM tools
• Highly organized and detail-oriented - you can manage multiple workstreams without losing quality
• Comfortable with ambiguity, fast-paced environments, and taking ownership without close supervision
• Systems thinker - you don’t just execute tasks, you spot efficiency issues to improve how things are done.

What Success Looks Like

• Build a high-quality, well-segmented prospect pipeline aligned with ICP
• Consistently generate qualified meetings for the US market expansion
• Improve outreach conversion rates through data-driven iteration
• Establish a scalable research & outreach system
