About Company:
Our client is a fast-growing tech start-up delivering technology solutions to clients across Africa.
The company is seeking a proactive and results-driven Sales Development Representative (SDR) to drive client acquisition and business growth. The ideal candidate will be responsible for identifying, engaging, and closing companies in need of one-off hires or managed developer services. S/he will lead outreach efforts across multiple channels, managing the complete sales cycle—from initial contact to deal closure—and coordinating a seamless handoff to the Talent team for successful delivery.  As a key contributor to the company’s growth, the SDR will play a critical role in expanding its global footprint and building strong, lasting relationships with startup and growth-stage clients.

Key Responsibilities:

▪ Build prospect lists and maintain up-to-date lead records in the CRM.

Outbound Prospecting & Engagement

▪ Customize messaging for different client types and track engagement metrics.

Full Sales Cycle Management

▪ 3-4 years of experience in B2B sales, business development, or client-facing roles (bonus if in tech, recruitment, or SaaS).
▪ Experience selling developer outsourcing, freelance platforms, or tech talent solutions will be an added advantage
▪ Confident communicator with strong written English and experience handling cold outreach and pitch calls.
▪ Self-starter who can manage a sales pipeline, follow up consistently, and close deals without micro-management.
