Job Summary

This is a high-impact, hands-on leadership role within a fast-scaling AI business. You will be responsible for leading and developing a team of SDRs (Commercial Associates), owning outbound pipeline generation, and building a repeatable, scalable prospecting engine.

You’ll operate as a player-coach — spending the majority of your time managing, coaching, and improving team performance, while remaining close to execution through direct involvement in outbound activity.

Key areas of focus include:

  • Managing, coaching, and developing a team of high-performing SDRs

  • Driving outbound pipeline generation across multiple channels (cold calling, email, LinkedIn)

  • Designing and refining outbound strategies to improve conversion rates

  • Building and implementing scalable playbooks for prospecting, messaging, and qualification

  • Owning tooling and data workflows (e.g. CRM, sequencing, enrichment tools)

  • Partnering closely with Sales and Marketing to ensure pipeline quality and alignment

  • Tracking and analysing performance metrics to identify bottlenecks and drive improvement

  • Hiring and onboarding new SDRs as the team scales

This role offers strong progression into senior GTM leadership as the business grows.

Experienced Required

  • 4+ years’ experience in B2B SaaS or AI sales, with a strong outbound focus

  • Experience managing or mentoring SDRs/BDRs (ideally 2–10 reps)

  • Proven track record of generating pipeline through outbound activity

  • Hands-on, player-coach mindset with a willingness to stay close to execution

  • Strong understanding of modern sales tooling (e.g. HubSpot, Salesforce, Clay, Outreach, Salesloft)

  • Data-driven and process-oriented approach to pipeline generation

  • Experience in high-growth / VC-backed environments (Series A–C preferred)

  • Strong communication and coaching ability

Desirable:

  • Experience building outbound functions or teams from early stage

  • Exposure to enterprise sales environments

The Application Process

  • 30-minute introductory call

  • 30-minute meeting with a senior leader / founder

  • Final stage onsite interview (approx. 60 minutes)

Fast-moving process with flexibility depending on candidate availability.
