- Operationalize the playbook: Build and refine scalable processes across inbound and outbound — from lead routing to call cadences to qualification frameworks — ensuring consistency and repeatability.
- Scale the team: Recruit, hire, and ramp BD talent, ideally with experience building teams in fast-paced, high-activity environments (e.g., brokerage teams, inside sales orgs, call centers).
- Partner with Sales & Marketing: Align closely with Account Executives and Marketing to prioritize high-value accounts, refine ICP targeting, and ensure tight feedback loops on lead quality.
- Drive accountability through data: Track daily, weekly, and monthly performance metrics; run structured pipeline reviews; and use data to continuously improve team output.
- Leverage modern tooling: Ensure effective use of CRM, sales engagement platforms, and data tools to support scale, visibility, and efficiency.

- Player-coach mentality: Comfortable jumping into calls, modeling best practices, and actively developing reps in real time.
