Sales Development Representative English Speakers

Our client is a growing, technology-enabled M&A advisory firm that helps small business owners navigate the process of selling their companies. They are looking for a Sales Development Representative to identify and engage business owners who may be considering selling their company and generate appointments for the sales team. This is a true outbound sales role. Success requires someone who is comfortable prospecting from scratch, initiating thoughtful conversations with business owners, qualifying opportunities, and consistently generating high-quality meetings. The base salary is $60,000-$70,000, which may be negotiable based on experience, with on-target earnings of $100,000+. Conduct outbound outreach through phone, email, LinkedIn, and other prospecting channels. Build your own pipeline of prospective sellers. Speak directly with business owners and decision-makers to understand their businesses, financial profile, and potential interest in a sale. Maintain accurate prospecting activity, notes, and pipeline information in the CRM. Follow up consistently with prospects who may not be ready to sell immediately. Partner closely with sales team to improve meeting quality and identify the strongest opportunities. Continually test and improve messaging, prospecting strategies, and outreach. Sales experience is preferred, particularly previous experience as an SDR, BDR, or in another outbound prospecting role, but it is not an absolute requirement. We are also open to someone earlier in their career who demonstrates the maturity, professionalism, judgment, and communication skills needed to speak credibly with business owners. Curious and able to have thoughtful business conversations rather than relying on overly scripted or aggressive sales tactics. Motivated by measurable goals and performance-based compensation. Interested in working collaboratively with the team in the Manhattan office 3 days per week. You'll be speaking directly with business owners about one of the most important financial decisions they may ever make: selling their company. For someone who wants to develop strong business development skills while gaining exposure to entrepreneurship, M&A, and small businesses, this is an opportunity to learn quickly and make a measurable impact on a growing company, while also having the chance to be promoted into a sales closing role.
