Sales Development Representative (SDR)

Sales Development Representative (SDR), FinTech SaaS

📍 Newcastle upon Tyne | Hybrid Working (2–3 days per week)

💰 Competitive Salary + Uncapped Bonus + Excellent Benefits

Are you an SDR who creates opportunities rather than waits for them?

Do you enjoy researching prospects, picking up the phone, opening conversations and building pipeline through proactive outbound prospecting?

If you're looking to join one of the UK's fastest-growing FinTech SaaS companies at an exciting stage of its growth, this could be the opportunity you've been waiting for.

We're partnering with a rapidly growing FinTech software business as they establish a brand-new office in Newcastle. They're looking for an ambitious, driven Sales Development Representative to become one of the first members of their North East sales team.

This is a fantastic opportunity to join a high-growth organisation where SDRs are genuinely invested in, developed and given a clear path into Account Executive and beyond.

The Role

Working alongside an experienced sales and marketing team, you'll be responsible for generating new business opportunities with mid-market organisations across the UK.

You'll have the support of a strong marketing function, but success in this role comes from having an outbound-first mentality. This business is looking for someone who doesn't sit back and wait for leads—they go out and create opportunities.

You'll be responsible for:

• Researching and identifying prospective customers.

• Building pipeline through proactive outbound prospecting via phone, email and LinkedIn.

• Qualifying inbound and outbound opportunities.

• Booking high-quality meetings for the Account Executive team.

• Working closely with Sales and Marketing to refine outreach strategies.

• Maintaining accurate CRM records.

• Consistently achieving and exceeding activity and pipeline targets.

What we're looking for

We're interested in ambitious sales executives who have already demonstrated success and want to accelerate their career.

Essential experience:

✔ Minimum of 2 years' experience in an SDR, BDR or similar new business sales role.

✔ A proven track record of achieving or exceeding targets.

✔ Experience selling SaaS software OR selling products or solutions into the Finance function (Finance Directors, CFOs, Financial Controllers etc.).

✔ A genuine outbound-first mindset. You're proactive, resilient and enjoy creating opportunities rather than relying on inbound enquiries.

✔ Excellent communication skills, commercial awareness and a strong desire to build a successful career in technology sales.

✔ Able to commute to the Newcastle office 2–3 days per week.

Experience in any of the following would be particularly attractive:

• FinTech

• Accounting / ERP Software

• Financial Management Software

• B2B SaaS

• Other Business Software (CRM, Payroll, HR Tech...)

Why apply?

This is an opportunity to join a business that's genuinely going places.

You'll be joining at an exciting stage of growth, helping to build a brand-new Newcastle office whilst receiving first-class training, ongoing coaching and genuine career progression.

In return you'll receive:

• Competitive basic salary.

• Uncapped bonus scheme.

• Hybrid working (2–3 days in the Newcastle office).

• Career progression into Account Executive.

• Continuous training and development.

• A collaborative, high-performance sales culture.

• The opportunity to join one of the UK's most exciting FinTech success stories.
