Overview
Job Description
Location: New York, NY
Work Model: In-office (5 days/week)
Industry: Payroll & back-office software (FinTech)
Compensation: $100K base, $120K-$140K OTE
About the Company
Our partner is a fast-growing FinTech building a payroll and back-office software suite for startups. The sales engine is already in motion with a proven team and clean structure in place, while the total addressable market remains almost entirely untapped. The company is building a hungry, competitive culture and is happy to pay above market for genuinely top talent. This is a chance to join early and grow fast in an environment built for high performers.
The Opportunity
As a Business Development Representative, you will drive outbound outreach to generate qualified pipeline for the AE team to close. BDRs are paired one-to-one with Account Executives, so your work directly fuels deals and revenue. The company is intentionally hiring experienced, high-output BDRs rather than first-timers, and there is a clear, fast path from BDR into a closing AE role.
This is a grind-it-out seat with real upside for someone who is competitive, creative with outreach, and eager to prove themselves quickly.
Responsibilities
- Run high-volume outbound outreach to source and qualify new opportunities
- Build and maintain a healthy top-of-funnel pipeline for the AE team
- Partner closely with Account Executives to hand off and advance deals
- Consistently hit and exceed activity and pipeline targets
- Develop the skills and track record to move into a closing AE role
Requirements
- 7+ months of BDR/SDR experience, ideally from a structured, high-performing sales org
- Proven outbound execution and a track record of strong output
- High drive, competitiveness, and a genuine hunger to grow
- Comfortable working at pace in a demanding, metrics-driven environment
- Bonus: experience selling to non-tech buyers, or coming from a larger BDR shop where promotion paths were limited
