• Role Overview
• The Sales Development Representative (SDR) owns the top of the sales funnel, driving business growth through strategic prospecting, outbound outreach, and relationship building with potential clients. This role is vital to expanding company presence across target markets—whether healthcare distributors, enterprise Fortune 1000 accounts, or B2C customers. You'll identify high-value prospects, execute high-volume outreach campaigns, book qualified meetings, and nurture pipelines that directly drive revenue. Working across diverse industries including healthcare medical devices, AI/SaaS platforms, and consumer health services, you'll combine research discipline, persuasive communication, and metrics-driven execution to create measurable business impact and open doors for sales teams.
• Your Impact
• Your prospecting excellence will directly drive company growth by building robust sales pipelines that fuel revenue generation. By identifying and engaging distributors, enterprise accounts, and high-intent leads, you'll expand market reach and enable faster scaling. Your outreach will create access to innovative solutions—improving patient care in healthcare contexts or helping businesses automate complex processes with AI. Through strategic relationship building with B2B distributor networks, you'll accelerate market penetration beyond what direct sales alone could achieve. Your customer insights gathered from prospect conversations will inform product development, marketing messaging, and sales playbook improvements. By consistently hitting outbound activity KPIs and conversion targets, you'll establish predictable pipeline flow that supports sustainable business growth.
