Lever solves the #1 challenge for every CEO: hiring. Recruiting is a hot market, growing 12-15% y/y on its own, and Applicant Tracking Systems like Lever are in high demand. At the same time, hiring has never been more competitive and costly, making talent solutions that improve a company’s hiring ROI incredibly valuable. We’ve already attracted an elite roster of customers including Box, Quora, Lyft, Coursera, Foursquare, ClearSlide, Slack, Reddit, and GitHub.

Lever is the only hiring application that is mobilizing the entire company to collaborate on hiring. We’re the only solution designed to engage managers, who are incredibly crucial stakeholders, more deeply in the process. By supporting a true partnership between recruiters and managers, we’re able to make hiring faster, higher-quality, and more embedded into a company’s core culture.

We’re looking for an enthusiastic leader to build our Sales Development organization from the ground up. Having previously led an SDR team, you’ll bring to the table the best practices from a healthy, successful, scaled SDR operation; the most modern metrics we should be using to measure our efforts; the best ways to build pipeline; and creative ideas to keep the team motivated and energized. As SDRs level up their skills, you’ll keep in mind the strategic / competitive elements for our unique sales challenges in the enterprise HR/recruiting software space.

Our ideal Sales Development Manager is smart, a natural coach, and obsessed with metrics/efficiency. You’ll maintain consistency of the pipeline in 2 aspects: 1) leads, counted on by the rest of the team, being ready to go and 2) the people – talent is our most important asset. We’ll be aggressive in scaling the team, but won’t be sacrificing professionalism in getting our product and brand out there, nor our culture of a supportive, winning sales team.
