About the role 

As a Sales Development Representative at LogicGate, you are the engine behind our pipeline generation. You’ll own the early stages of the sales process—converting leads and executing targeted outbound campaigns to fill the funnel with qualified opportunities for our Account Executives. This isn’t traditional cold-calling. We’re building a GTM motion powered by data, AI tools, and disciplined prospecting plays, and we want SDRs who are as excited about optimizing a sequence as they are about booking a meeting. Risk Cloud is a technical, complex SaaS product in the GRC space, and our Sales Development program is designed to develop the skills, habits, and strategic instincts you’ll carry throughout your career in sales.

How you'll spend your time:  

• Execute inbound and outbound prospecting across multiple channels—phone, email, and LinkedIn—using structured cadences and AI-assisted research to engage the right buyers at the right accounts
• Conduct deep account and contact research to build personalized, relevant outreach—leveraging intent signals, technographic data, and AI tools to prioritize accounts and tailor your messaging
• Maintain rigorous CRM hygiene in Salesforce and contribute to pipeline reporting, ensuring accurate activity tracking, lead status updates, and data quality that supports team forecasting and performance analysis
• Continuously develop your knowledge of Risk Cloud, the GRC competitive landscape, and the buyers we serve—translating that expertise into sharper discovery conversations and more effective outreach

We get excited about you if you have: 

• Genuine excitement about technology and a desire to build a career in GTM —you see AI and automation tools as force multipliers, not shortcuts
• Intellectual curiosity and a drive to deeply understand the GRC space—you research the industry, learn the buyer personas, and connect the dots between customer problems and our solution
• Strong listening skills and genuine humility—you lead with discovery and qualification rigor, knowing the best SDRs understand a prospect’s needs before making a pitch
• A tech-forward seller—you pick up new tools quickly, are comfortable experimenting with AI-powered prospecting and research tools, and are energized by the idea of building smarter, more efficient outreach workflows

The anticipated on-target earnings range for the role is $68,000 - $74,000 per year + equity + benefits. Actual salaries may vary and will be based on factors, such as the candidate's qualifications, skills, competencies, and proficiency for the role.

This is a hybrid role that requires regular, weekly presence in our Chicago or Seattle office.

As our Manager, Sales Development you will be a foundational GTM leader responsible for building and scaling pipeline generation at LogicGate. This isn't a traditional sales management role, we're looking for a GTM architect who can design scalable systems using AI, optimize every stage of the funnel, and lead from the front by maintaining an active prospecting role.

You'll own the full demand generation motion: converting inbound leads and executing targeted outbound campaigns against strategic new logo accounts. Your primary mission is to build repeatable, data-driven plays that generate qualified pipeline and revenue while coaching and training early sales professionals. You'll leverage AI and modern GTM technology to reimagine how SDRs work—using automation, intelligence tools, and conversation analytics to scale impact without scaling headcount.. If you're equally comfortable building Salesforce dashboards and as you are running discovery calls, designing account-based plays as you are coaching objection handling, and analyzing conversion funnels as you are celebrating team wins—this is the role for you.

This is a high-impact, high-visibility role. You'll collaborate directly with Sales, Marketing, and RevOps leadership to define prospecting strategy, establish KPIs, and drive accountability for pipeline quality and revenue outcomes.

What You'll Do:

• Own the Sales Development strategy and execution - Design and implement the full GTM blueprint for inbound conversion and outbound prospecting across target accounts and territories; continuously analyze pipeline metrics (conversion rates, velocity, lead quality) to identify and execute levers for growth
• Reimagine SDR workflows with AI - Stay ahead of the curve on AI-powered prospecting tools, message generation, research automation, and conversation intelligence; continuously experiment with new technologies to scale team impact and productivity
• Lead from the front - Manage day-to-day team activities while maintaining an active prospecting role; model best practices through live calls, email sequences, and account research that demonstrate the craft
• Build and optimize the engine - Act as the critical liaison between Sales and Marketing; define and enforce SLAs for lead response times, MQL-to-SQL qualification criteria, and pipeline hygiene standards
• Drive pipeline infrastructure and AI adoption - Manage and optimize the sales development tech stack (CRM, workflow, intent data tools, conversation intelligence); build and test your own cadences, leverage Gong for call coaching and pattern recognition, and deploy AI tools for account research, lookalike identification, and contact discovery to maximize team efficiency and output
• Coach and develop early-career sales talent - Implement rigorous coaching programs focused on enterprise prospecting, stakeholder mapping, qualification rigor, and executive engagement; mentor SDRs on complex B2B sales skills while creating pathways to senior SDR, team lead, or specialized GTM roles as they grow
• Own the metrics - Set clear, actionable goals and guide the team to achieve outstanding monthly and quarterly results; provide accurate pipeline forecasting and performance analysis to senior leadership, articulating drivers, risks, and mitigation strategies
• Scale the function - Drive recruiting, hiring, and onboarding of high-potential SDR talent; build scalable processes and playbooks that enable consistent execution as the team grows

What Makes You a Great Fit:

Required:

• 6+ years in B2B SaaS sales with a proven track record of quota achievement in a high-velocity environment, including 3+ years directly managing or building SDR/BDR teams
• GTM engineer mindset - Demonstrated success defining, implementing, and optimizing sales processes (qualification frameworks, cadence structures, lead management, account selection) that resulted in measurable pipeline growth
• Technical operator and AI enthusiast - Expert proficiency with Salesforce and hands-on experience building/managing cadences in Outreach or Salesloft; proven ability to use Gong for call coaching and performance analysis; comfortable experimenting with AI tools for research, prospecting, and workflow automation; can derive actionable insights from pipeline data and conversation intelligence
• Player-coach DNA - You lead by example and aren't afraid to roll up your sleeves; you believe the best managers stay connected to the craft and coach through demonstration
• Cross-functional collaborator - Exceptional ability to work with Marketing, Sales Ops, and AE leadership to drive alignment on GTM strategy, campaign execution, and SLAs
• Talent developer - Coaching-centric leadership style with a passion for mentorship and developing early-career professionals into top performers

We get excited about you if you have:

• GRC, Risk, Compliance, or Governance technology experience - Familiarity with selling to Risk, Compliance, Audit, IT, or Legal buyers
• Methodology expertise - Certification or deep experience with established frameworks (MEDDIC, SPICED, Challenger) and implementing them within a coaching program
• Builder credentials - You've launched outbound plays from scratch, implemented new tools/platforms, or created enablement programs that drove measurable results
• AI/automation track record - Examples of using AI tools (ChatGPT, Clay, Claude, generative research tools) to improve prospecting efficiency, message quality, or account intelligence
• Services or solution selling background - Experience beyond pure SaaS, especially in consultative or complex solution environment

The anticipated on-target earnings range for the role is $115,000 - $140,000 per year + equity + benefits. Actual salaries may vary and will be based on factors, such as the candidate's qualifications, skills, competencies, and proficiency for the role. Internal candidates who have current pay within or above the hiring range are still encouraged to apply if interested.
