Business Development Representative

Job Description:

Get your foot in the door to the software sales industry as a Business Development Representative (BDR) at Sage. Every day, you’ll take to the phones connecting with small and medium sized businesses teaching them about how Sage can help run their business better. We’re very well-known in the UK, with rapid growth in North America, so you’ll be joining a robust community of BDRs with ample tools to fuel your success. If you’re adaptable, like to use trial and error to improve, and can learn new systems quickly, an BDR role at Sage has a lot to offer you.

Hybrid:

3 days per week with the team in the office (Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday).

Represent software that wins:

Our products are designed with the customer in mind. They make accounting and finance tasks easy, meaning more time to do other things; this is key for small and medium sized businesses! As an BDR, you’ll be selling software that helps people and makes sense.

Key Responsibilities:

Onboarding snapshot:

• Weeks 1-3: join other new BDRs virtually in an onboarding class designed to teach you about systems, competitive landscapes and how to sell Sage.

• Week 4: witness what you learned in weeks 1-3 by shadowing other BDRs.

• Weeks 5-12: ramp up period, with the support of your manager and team, progressing toward being fully independent.

How success will be measured:

Your goal will be to create sales opportunities for Account Executives. You’ll do this by finding prospects (or following up on existing leads), then getting a meeting with them to teach them about Sage. After that, the Account Executive will take over.

Growth opportunities:

Our global sales team is huge, and we love seeking people internally to promote. BDRs typically choose to grow into Account Executive roles, Customer Account Management or Sales Operations/Management or marketing roles.

Requirements:

• 1+ year of sales or professional experience

• You believe in small-midsized businesses and want to see them thrive.

• People consider you a great storyteller, you’re clear and concise!

• 18 weeks of paid parental leave for birth, adoption, or surrogacy offered 1 year after the start date.

• 5 days paid yearly to volunteer (through Sage Foundation).

• $5,250 tuition reimbursement per calendar year starting 6 months after the hire date.

• Sage Wellness Rewards Program (annual fitness reimbursement).
