Inbound Sales Development Representative (d/f/m)

This role requires 3 days per week in the office and is based in Berlin or Munich.

As an Inbound SDR, you're the first voice prospects hear at Personio, turning initial interest into qualified opportunities! You'll help build an AI-assisted, multi-channel inbound engine (phone, chat, email) across all DACH segments. This isn't just working a funnel, you'll shape how inbound evolves, contribute to systems and processes, and gain deep visibility into our go-to-market motion!

Moreover, exciting long-term career possibilities evolve by e.g. moving into Account Executive, Account Manager, Customer Success Manager, or Revenue Operations roles.

The work you’ll do:

• Qualify leads fast: Own inbound qualification via phone and meetings using MEDDICC/MICCED. Speed-to-lead is key — your responsiveness drives conversion.

• Collaborate with AEs: Support pipeline priorities and ensure seamless transitions from first contact to opportunity.
• Document & improve: Capture patterns and edge cases to feed automation. Contribute to playbook optimization and routing logic.
• Maintain data quality: Keep Salesforce and GONG accurate and current.
• Track your impact: Monitor KPIs (response times, conversion rates, MQL hygiene, Won MRR) with a data-driven mindset.

• 1+ year in sales development: SDR, BDR, or similar customer-facing role in SaaS/B2B tech. You qualify fast and turn cold conversations into warm opportunities.
• Fluent German & English: Native-level German, business-fluent English required.
• Process-driven: You bring order to chaos, identify gaps, and translate insights into clear improvements.
• Tech-savvy: Comfortable with Salesforce, Qualified, Gong, and AI tools (Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini). You understand how systems connect.
• Curious & proactive: You spot problems, ask questions, and bring solutions. Excited by AI and automation.
• Organized & reliable: You manage your workload independently and maintain excellent CRM hygiene. Speed matters.
• Multi-threading mindset: Familiar with engaging multiple stakeholders across channels to maximize conversion.
