About this role
We’re a growing team, and as we scale, so does our need to focus on expanding our sales development team.

As a Senior Sales Development Representative, you will identify and engage our ideal customers using Vendavo’s target account profile. You will lead the first stage of the customer journey, starting conversations and building early relationships through outbound prospecting, targeted campaigns, events and coordinated marketing activity.
You will guide prospects through the early stages of the commercial lifecycle: discovering opportunities, qualifying interest and fit, and securing high-quality meetings for our Account Executives. You will also support the account team on key marketing activity.
Your work lays the foundation for predictable, high-quality pipeline across our enterprise segment.THE OPPORTUNITY Leverage research and tailored outreach to create new opportunities with both New Logo accounts and existing customers. Run outbound prospecting (cold calling, email, LinkedIn) on strategic target accounts using concise, research-led messaging.
Most of your quota will be expected to come from outbound. Qualify inbound leads against set criteria, using strong questioning to identify true fit and move the right opportunities forward. Research the business issues affecting target accounts and profile key contacts before outreach.
Build a solid understanding of our technology and solutions, and clearly explain the problems we solve and the value we deliver to prospects. Lead team meetings on relevant topics, share learnings and new strategies to improve SDR performance, and take part in weekly pipeline reviews.
