Within 6 months, you’ll:
Help identify and implement new tools, workflows, or prospecting methods that improve SDR performance
Build a strong, forward-looking pipeline and consistently exceed your qualification targets
Continuously improve lead quality, conversion rates, and AE handoff success
Begin preparing for potential growth into a full-cycle Account Executive role

2+ years of experience as an outbound-focused Sales Development Representative, Business Development Representative, or similar role
