Our Values

If this sounds like you, you’ll fit right in.

Who You Are

You are a dependable, natural leader who doesn’t just manage a team—you build a winning culture. You are a master of outbound sales fundamentals, and a data-driven coach who uses insights, signals, and modern tools to develop your team into top performers who consistently exceed expectations and drive meaningful pipeline.

As the Manager of Sales Development, you will be responsible for driving a significant portion of the company's revenue, building and motivating a high-performing team, and developing future Account Executives. We view Sales Development Representatives as the primary pipeline for our AE organization, and your leadership will directly shape the next generation of top-performing sellers at Justworks.

As we continue to modernize our outbound motion, you will play a key role in evolving how we operate — leveraging AI, automation, and signal-based selling to increase efficiency and effectiveness. You are comfortable questioning existing processes and leading change that improves productivity, pipeline quality, and the overall customer experience.
