Responsibilities
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

Represent Pliant: Act as the first point of contact for our brand, articulating our value proposition with a high sense of urgency and professionalism
Qualification
Required
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

You thrive in a high-activity environment. You understand that speed to lead and volume are the lifeblood of a growing sales organization
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

Experience with Salesforce/Hubspot, Outreach/Salesloft, and LinkedIn Sales Navigator is a major plus
