Sales Development Representative

About Us

We're ClosedWon Talent, a sales and go-to-market recruiting agency that specializes in working with fast-growing startups. If you're exploring your next move, we might have just the opportunity for you, including this one.

About Our Client

Our client is an established knowledge management software company that has spent more than two decades helping large customer service and contact center teams give fast, accurate, and consistent answers across every channel so their agents stop drowning in outdated docs. Their platform is trusted by well-known brands across healthcare, travel and tourism, insurance, telecom, banking, and ecommerce who use their headless knowledge system to push accurate, AI-driven answers into any channel their customers touch.

Well established in Australia with strong revenue behind them, they recently entered the US market and hired a Head of Sales to build the team from the ground up. They are now bringing on their first US BDR alongside two Account Executives, plus marketing and demand gen support, to make a real push. You get the upside of building a US pipeline engine from scratch without the usual startup gamble of wondering whether the company makes payroll next quarter.

About the Role

This is a true founding BDR seat for someone who wants to build a motion, not run someone else's playbook. You will be the sole BDR on the ground in the US, working directly with the Head of Sales and the soon-to-be two Founding AEs to generate the pipeline that fuels the entire US push. Because you are first, you will have a real hand in building the outbound motion from the ground up: the messaging, the target account strategy, the sequences, and the playbook that the next hires inherit.

This is not a spray-and-pray role. You will run true enterprise prospecting into a focused set of target accounts across industries with large contact centers, including healthcare, insurance, ecommerce and retail, and travel and hospitality. The bar is quality over quantity: research the account, understand who sits where, and craft a reason to reach out that lands, rather than blasting the whole market and burning it out. A lot of these buyers are not actively shopping for this kind of solution, so your job is to spark curiosity and open doors where no one is looking yet.

You will partner tightly with the Head of Sales, a hands-on leader who is still in the trenches selling and building the US motion himself, so you will learn the enterprise playbook directly from the person writing it.

On pay, you will earn commission on every qualified meeting you deliver, plus a percentage of the revenue those meetings turn into. Because these are six-figure deals, a single win sourced from your pipeline can mean thousands in commission to you. You get paid for the activity you control up front and share in the outcomes you help create down the line.

Career growth is a real lever here. As the team grows and you prove you can generate pipeline, the path is a move into a closing seat at an enterprise sales organization that is genuinely using AI to sell and to power its product, not just talking about it. You will learn the full enterprise motion from a strong sales leader, then get the chance to run it yourself.
