We have an amazing story with a unique perspective on culture formed by a global footprint of data and AI-driven insights.

We’re looking for a Sales Development Representative (SDR) to partner with our Head of Growth Marketing and build a high-performing, scalable SDR motion from the ground up. This is not a run-the-script role — this is for a builder, an operator, and an innovator.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

  • Own and build our outbound and inbound SDR strategy — from first touch to qualified opportunity
  • Partner closely with marketing to design and run multi-channel, ABM-informed campaigns that drive pipeline. 
  • Own our MQLs to Opportunity pipeline — from initial MQL through nurturing to SQL you’ll focusing on meetings booked and subsequent pipeline & revenue generated. 
  • Manage and optimize HubSpot + Salesforce workflows for tracking performance and measuring data, and optimizing our processes to maintain good data hygiene over time. 
  • Spot gaps in our current tooling, workflows, or process — and build what’s missing or what will give us the leading edge. E.g. integrating data enrichment tools, managing and SDR AI agent to scale what's working, unique prospecting data. 
  • Rapidly test and refine personalized outbound, marketing campaign follow-ups, and sales support programs. 
  • Run high-quality discovery calls that convert interest into qualified opportunities maintaining up to date on 
  • Be the connective tissue across sales and marketing — ensuring clear, value-driven narratives across the funnel
  • Track performance and meet your quarterly metrics — from MQL → SAL → opportunity → pipeline  →  revenue. 

WHO YOU ARE

  • Have 1-5  years of B2B SDR/BDR experience (not just SaaS — you get ABM and can flex across multiple GTM motions. 
  • Are fluent in HubSpot, Salesforce, 6sense, and modern sales tools — and know how to bend them to your will. 
  • You are a strong communicator, can pitch and write emails, cold calls that are on-brand and memorable. 
  • You can navigate a complex sales cycle, technical products and large organization and drive work forward with imperfect information and insight. 
  • Have demonstrated experience managing and interpreting marketing and sales data — and use it to make decisions and steer outreach strategies, and interpret results. 
  • You have demonstrated experience identifying opportunities and adopting cutting edge tools to enhance team performance and automate your workflows. 
  • You are a cross-functional team player able to build relationships and successful workflows across your core collaborators: Sales teams, marketing operations, growth marketing, design and product. 
  • Are natively using AI across your workflows: email, lead research, sequencing, personalization, reporting balancing speed and quality. 
  • Are hungry to find better tools and faster ways to convert pipeline — and always experimenting. 
  • Can build diversified playbooks — not just rely on one “winning” cold email, you test iteratively. 
  • You have a high bar for quality but can balance quality and outcomes to achieve your goals. 
  • Are energized by targets, performance dashboards, and leaderboard pressure — but driven by teamwork and excellence. 

Success In This Role Looks Like

  • High MQL → SAL → opportunity conversion rates
  • Meaningful revenue contribution and strong MQL to SQL conversion rate. 
  • Outperforming quarterly meeting and outreach targets  
  • A scalable MQL nurturing engine that consistently generates pipeline and is actively iterating. 
  • A playbook of repeatable, data-driven SDR campaigns
