About the Role 

We’re looking for an experienced SDR Manager to lead and scale our global Sales Development function. This role will inherit an established team of 2 SDRs in the UK and be responsible for building and managing a new US-based team of 2 to 3 SDRs, with room to grow the team. 

This is a fully remote role based on the US Eastern Time Zone. Your success will be measured by team performance, pipeline impact, talent development, and operational excellence. This role is ideal for a people-first SDR leader who thrives in coaching, building repeatable outbound motion, and partnering cross-functionally to drive pipeline at scale. 

What You’ll Do 

Team Leadership & Development 

• Lead, coach, and develop a distributed SDR team across the UK and the US
• Create clear performance expectations, career paths, and development plans
• Foster a high-trust, high-accountability culture in a fully remote environment 

Hiring & Team Growth 

• Hire and onboard 2 to 3 US-based SDRs (to start, with room to grow), building a strong and diverse team
• Partner with Talent and Sales leadership to ensure consistent hiring quality
• Design onboarding that ramps reps quickly and sets them up for long-term success 

Outbound Strategy & Execution 

• Own the SDR pipeline motion, ensuring consistent, high-quality pipeline generation
• Build and refine outbound processes, messaging, and cadences
• Continuously test, learn, and iterate to improve conversion and efficiency 

Operational Excellence 

• Define and track key SDR metrics across activity, pipeline, and conversion
• Use data to diagnose performance gaps and drive improvement
• Ensure consistent execution across regions while allowing for local nuance 

Tech Stack & Enablement 

• Own SDR tooling and workflows (e.g., Apollo, Nooks, Gong, SFDC)
• Partner with RevOps to ensure systems, reporting, and automation scale with the team
• Enable reps with playbooks, talk tracks, and best practices 

Cross-Functional Partnership 

• Work closely with Sales, Marketing, and RevOps to align on ICP, targeting, and campaigns
• Provide feedback loops on lead quality, messaging performance, and market insights 

What We’re Looking For 

• Proven experience as an SDR Manager or SDR Team Lead managing multiple reps
• Strong people leadership skills with a track record of coaching and developing SDRs
• Experience hiring and scaling SDR teams, ideally in a SaaS or high-growth environment
• Deep familiarity with modern outbound and sales engagement tools
  • AI/LMS proficiency and willingness to experiment and automate.
• Comfortable leading remote, distributed teams across time zones
• Highly organized, data-driven, and process-oriented
• Clear, confident communicator who builds credibility with reps and stakeholders
• Pragmatic, adaptable, and energized by building scalable systems—not heroics 
• Excellent communication and interpersonal skills; motivating presence in both prospect-facing and internal contexts.
• Entrepreneurial, resourceful, and energized by building something new.
• Must be located in the Eastern time zone of the US.

Why This Role 

• No personal quota — focus fully on leadership, coaching, and impact
• Opportunity to shape a global SDR org at a critical stage of transformation
• High visibility and partnership with Sales and GTM leadership
• Modern sales stack and openness to experimentation
• Fully remote role with real ownership and autonomy
