We are looking for a high-performance Mid-Market / Enterprise Business Development Representative who thrives in complex sales environments and knows how to break into larger, multi-location organizations.
You will be responsible for strategically targeting and penetrating mid-market and enterprise accounts through a thoughtful, multi-channel outbound approach; including cold calls, strategic email campaigns, LinkedIn outreach, and event-driven engagement.
You will also work closely with Marketing to convert inbound demand from webinars, conferences, field events, and paid campaigns into qualified pipeline for the sales team.
If you know how to work an account with intention, persistence, and strategy, then this role is for you!
What You'll Do
Prospecting and breaking into multi-location organizations (100+ locations and beyond) across Retail, Restaurants, and C-Store/Gas
Developing strategic account plans and executing coordinated outreach across calls, email, and LinkedIn
Partnering with Account Executives to align on top target accounts and drive account penetration
Converting inbound marketing demand (events, webinars, campaigns) into high-quality meetings
Conducting strong initial discovery and qualification aligned to our ICP
Attending trade shows and field events to generate meetings and build relationships with enterprise prospects
Leveraging tools like HubSpot, LinkedIn Sales Navigator, Gong, Loom, and other modern sales platforms to execute efficiently
