Sales Development Representative

About Marathon Talent

Marathon Talent is a talent solutions and executive search company focused on connecting high-growth companies with exceptional talent. We are looking for a highly motivated Sales Development Representative (SDR) to join our team and help us accelerate our client acquisition efforts.

The Role

We are looking for a high-energy, highly commercial SDR who thrives on prospecting, building relationships, and creating new business opportunities.

Your main goal will be simple: generate qualified opportunities and consistently book meetings for our team.

This is a role for someone who is persistent, proactive, competitive, and genuinely enjoys sales. We are looking for someone who doesn’t stop after a few “no’s” — someone who keeps prospecting, follows up, experiments with different approaches, and consistently looks for the next opportunity.

•⁠ ⁠Identify and research potential clients and decision-makers across relevant industries.

•⁠ ⁠Build and manage prospect lists using LinkedIn, email, and other outbound channels.

•⁠ ⁠Execute high-volume, personalized outbound campaigns.

•⁠ ⁠Cold call and engage prospects through email, LinkedIn, and other communication channels.

•⁠ ⁠Qualify leads and identify potential business opportunities.

•⁠ ⁠Consistently book qualified meetings for Nashla and Leon.

•⁠ ⁠Follow up persistently with prospects to maximize conversion.

•⁠ ⁠Develop creative and effective approaches to generate new conversations.

•⁠ ⁠Maintain accurate and up-to-date prospecting activity in our CRM.

•⁠ ⁠Track outreach performance and continuously optimize your approach.

•⁠ ⁠Collaborate with the team to refine messaging, target accounts, and sales strategies.

Requirements

Previous experience as an SDR, BDR, Business Development Representative, Sales Representative, or similar commercial role.

•⁠ ⁠Experience selling or prospecting for software/SaaS, professional services, consulting, recruitment, headhunting, or other B2B services.

•⁠ ⁠Strong English communication skills — you will interact with international prospects.

•⁠ ⁠Excellent verbal and written communication.

•⁠ ⁠Strong commercial mindset and genuine interest in sales.

•⁠ ⁠Comfortable with cold outreach and speaking with decision-makers.

•⁠ ⁠Highly proactive, organized, and self-motivated.

•⁠ ⁠Strong follow-up skills and persistence.

•⁠ ⁠Comfortable working independently in a fully remote environment.

•⁠ ⁠Results-oriented and motivated by targets and measurable outcomes.
