Job description

We're looking for a Sales Development Representative to own outbound prospecting and pipeline generation for a fast-moving B2B company. You will identify and research target accounts, conduct outbound outreach via phone and email, qualify prospects, and book meetings for the sales team.

This is a B2B-focused role. You will be prospecting into business buyers, navigating organizational structures, and having commercially intelligent conversations that move prospects toward a meeting. Excellent English communication skills are highly preferred since you will be speaking and writing to business decision-makers daily. If you are a confident communicator, organized, and motivated by clear activity metrics and measurable output, this role is a strong fit.

Why You'll Want to Join

  • You will be paid in USD (bi-monthly: every 15th and 30th)
  • Paid Time Off in accordance with company policy
  • Observance of Holidays per company guidelines
  • 100% remote setup so you can work wherever you're most productive
  • This role requires availability during US business hours
  • High-activity role with clear metrics and direct impact on pipeline and revenue
  • Work inside a growing B2B company with real traction and an expanding client base

What You'll Work On

Outbound Prospecting and Cold Outreach

  • Research and identify target accounts and key decision-makers within each organization
  • Conduct outbound outreach via phone and email to cold and warm prospects daily
  • Write clear, personalized, non-spammy cold emails and follow-up sequences that generate responses
  • Handle objections confidently and keep conversations moving toward a booked meeting

Lead Qualification and Pipeline Management

  • Qualify inbound and outbound leads against defined ideal customer profile criteria
  • Conduct discovery conversations to understand prospect pain points, timelines, and fit
  • Book qualified meetings for the sales team with full context and qualification notes
  • Log all outreach activity, call notes, and next steps accurately in the CRM after every interaction

CRM and Reporting

  • Maintain clean and current pipeline records across all active prospects
  • Track activity volume, response rates, and meeting conversion metrics consistently
  • Meet daily and weekly outreach targets and monthly meeting booking goals

What You Bring

  • Prior B2B sales development, outbound sales, or lead generation experience — this is the primary qualification for this role
  • Excellent spoken and written English communication skills, highly preferred for a role that involves daily business-to-business conversations and correspondence
  • Comfortable making outbound calls and sending cold emails to business decision-makers with a confident, professional, and natural communication style
  • Experience with a CRM platform for logging activity, tracking pipeline, and managing follow-up sequences
  • Organized and self-directed with the ability to manage a high volume of outreach without losing quality or responsiveness
  • Comfortable with rejection and persistent enough to follow up without being pushy

Nice to Have

  • Experience selling into a specific vertical such as technology, SaaS, professional services, or similar B2B categories
  • Familiarity with sales engagement platforms such as Apollo, Outreach, Salesloft, or similar tools
  • Background in a high-growth startup or fast-paced B2B sales environment
  • Experience running multi-touch outbound sequences combining phone, email, and LinkedIn

How to Apply

Please include:

  1. Your updated resume
  2. A short Loom video (1 to 2 minutes) introducing yourself, describing your B2B sales development experience, and giving an example of how you approach prospecting a new account from research through to first outreach

Only candidates who submit a Loom video will be moved to the next step of the hiring process.

If you are a confident B2B communicator who can prospect intelligently, qualify rigorously, and book meetings consistently, this role gives you the structure and the direct impact to do your best work.
