What it’s like to work at TopsortAt Topsort, we communicate openly and move fast. We say things as they are, challenge each other early, and embrace feedback with curiosity—it’s how we build better, faster. Every experiment has a purpose, and every outcome helps us make the next decision smarter. There’s no single formula for success here; we find what works, improve it, and scale it.

We’re collaborative internally and competitive externally—never the other way around. The pace is quick, sometimes a 100-mph kind of fast, and that’s what keeps it exciting. We act with intent, lift each other up, and turn bold ideas into real results. No endless meetings here—if it can be done today, it gets done today.

What Is This Role Like?The Business Development Representative role is a high-intelligence, founder-style position focused on rapid pipeline creation and accelerated career growth. This is not a script-heavy BDR job; we hire for raw horsepower to build the top of the funnel for a technical, category-defining product (Retail Media Infrastructure 3.0). You will operate as the top funnel, blending commercial strategy with precise execution.

In this role, you will:

• Growth Hunting: Identify and develop new business opportunities that drive revenue and long-term growth.
• Strategic Prospecting: Build a high-quality outbound pipeline through high-volume, multi-channel outreach (email sequences, LinkedIn Sales Navigator, cold calls).
• Precision Research: Research target companies and industries to understand business models, challenges, and buying signals.
• High-Quality Qualification: Own first-touch conversations, clearly communicating Topsort’s value and qualifying meetings that convert.
• Creative Messaging: Test, iterate, and optimize messaging and sequences to maximize response and conversion.
• Relationship Building: Build trust with key decision-makers through strong networking and commercial intuition.
• Field & Event Activation: Support and participate in events and field initiatives to generate pipeline and brand awareness.
• Pipeline Ownership: Manage leads and interactions end-to-end in HubSpot with strong discipline.
• Cross-Functional Collaboration: Partner closely with Sales, Marketing, and Product to unlock new growth motions.

What We Think You Need to Be Successful - we’re open to candidates who don’t check every box but show strong potential!

Core Requirements & Experience:

• 2+ years of experience in Business Development, Sales Development, or a similar commercial role, ideally in SaaS, AdTech, or B2B tech.
• Bachelor’s degree in Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field is a plus.
• Proven experience with digital prospecting at scale, including LinkedIn Sales Navigator, cold emailing, sequences, and cold calling.
• Experience supporting or running events, activations, or field marketing initiatives is a strong plus.
• High-energy, creative, and persuasive communicator with strong networking and relationship-building skills.
• Comfortable operating in a fast-paced startup environment with high autonomy and ownership.
• Strong understanding of CRM tools and structured sales processes (HubSpot or similar).
• Resilient, disciplined, and driven — able to combine charm and creativity with consistent execution and volume.
• Hungry to build, test, fail fast, and win.

Bonus Points
- Familiarity with retail, marketplaces, or media monetization.
- Fluency in additional languages beyond English.
