If you have proven success overachieving your KPIs and goals as a BDR, a desire to build the team, enact scalable processes, as well as have a knack for inspiring people, this is the role for you

**Objectives for the BDR**:

- Use data to identify and make improvements in process, efficiency, enablement, and productivity.
- Track and communicate weekly goals to team and leadership to drive consistent performance.
- Deliver on meetings set and opportunities generated, as well as report on all weekly, monthly, and quarterly KPIs and performance.
- Proactively identify and launch initiatives to drive new business development growth and operational excellence.
- Achieve quarterly and annual pipeline and revenue targets.
- Work with marketing and sales operations to ensure thorough follow up on leads.
- Work closely with Sales Managers and Account Executives to ensure proper alignment on opportunity quality, and follow-up on handoffs.
- Maintain impeccable data quality and Salesforce CRM hygiene.
- Have a maniacal focus on outcomes and impact. Closely monitor metrics - everything from daily activity, conversion rates to opportunities, hand-off to sales, and close rates - with the aim to increase BDR productivity, contribution to pipeline, and bookings.

**Our ideal Sr. Business Development Representative will have**:

- Proven track record of success - demonstrable experience as an SDR or BDR with phone experience for at least two years with clear goals and KPI achievement for a sales organization.
- Builder mentality - ability and interest in developing new processes while serving as a founding member of the team.
- Strategic thinker - able to research and understand the ideal Ekata client profile and become an expert on Ekata’s competitive landscape.
- Team player - you inspire others around you through your effort and ability to play a team game. At Ekata, Sales is a team sport with collaboration required across many departments.
- Data-driven - you are driven by numbers and are constantly finding ways to improve productivity, efficiency, and contribution to the business.
- Natural leader - you have a passion for mentoring and coaching a team to success, inspiring confidence, and leading by example.
- Results-driven work ethic with measurable results in fast-paced environments.
- 2+ years in a fast-growing SaaS environment.
- This is an APAC market facing role, therefore, proficiency in Mandarin Chinese, Bahasa Indonesia, or Malay are preferred.
