Rival Technologies
Rival Technologies – Business Development Representative
The Business Development Representative is a key role on our revenue crew. You’re a catalyst for every opportunity and deal. You find leads, generate interest, book meetings and act as the primary point of contact for your prospects. Our ability to hit our targets is inextricably linked to your ability to book meetings. A great BDR can have a transformative impact on the companies they work with and accelerate their career and earning potential. You win, we win. It’s as simple as that.
You need to be competitive, comfortable with change and manically focussed on making your number. You need to be goal orientated and hate to lose but willing to accept help to win. You need to understand the big picture, while staying focused on the task at hand: booking high quality meetings. The team here is lean, focussed and fun. There are no clock watchers in this place. Unlike larger companies, you’re not a cog in a wheel, you’re an integral part of the sales team. As such, you have unprecedented access to the Chief Growth Officer, the CFO, the CEO and the Senior Director of Marketing and more. Each and every person here is committed to ensuring hard-working, open minded, flexible and proactive people crush their goals and grow their career. You put in the time and effort and we’ll match that and more.
