Drive Top-of-Funnel: Own the outbound engine for Pliant US. You will hunt for new business through high-volume cold calling, strategic emailing, and social selling.
Master the Discovery: Go beyond setting meetings. You will lead initial discovery calls with finance leaders to qualify pain points and build a business case for Pliant’s modular platform.
Partner with Sales Leadership: Work directly with our Head of Sales to refine outbound strategies and A/B test messaging that resonates with the US market.
The AE "Shadow" Program: Participate in a structured promotion track. Once you hit your ramp goals, you will begin shadowing demos, managing smaller deal cycles, and learning the closing mechanics required for an AE promotion.
Ownership: Report to the Head of Sales weekly on progress, plans, and development.
Represent Pliant: Act as the first point of contact for our brand, articulating our value proposition with a high sense of urgency and professionalism.

Requirements

Proven Track Record: At least 1 year of experience in a BDR/SDR role (preferably in SaaS or Fintech) with documented success in exceeding monthly or quarterly activity and pipeline targets.
Strategic Prospecting: You don't just "blast" emails; you research prospects, identify triggers, and craft personalized messages that cut through the noise.
Urgency & Intensity: You thrive in a high-activity environment. You understand that speed to lead and volume are the lifeblood of a growing sales organization.
AE Aspirations: You are not looking for a "forever BDR" role. You have a clear desire to move into a closing role and the coachability to handle constructive feedback as you sharpen your sales craft.
Tech Stack Proficiency: Experience with Salesforce/Hubspot, Outreach/Salesloft, and LinkedIn Sales Navigator is a major plus.
