About the Role

We are seeking experienced Sales Development Representatives (SDRs) to join our team on a short-term project basis. The primary focus will be on building and executing a B2B outbound sales strategy, while also managing inbound leads as needed. This is an onsite role, ideal for SDRs comfortable with structured sales cycles and who can quickly adapt to a competitive B2B environment.

This project targets the financial industry, including credit solutions, online financial applications, and short-term loans. Candidates with relevant experience or a strong interest in this sector will be highly valued.

Key Responsibilities

  • Develop and execute an outbound B2B prospecting strategy using calls, emails, and LinkedIn outreach targeting financial institutions, credit-related businesses, and short-term loan providers.

  • Manage inbound leads to ensure prompt qualification and handover to sales.

  • Conduct high-volume prospecting to identify and qualify opportunities in the financial, credit, and short-term loan sectors.

  • Confidently handle competitor-driven objections with professionalism.

  • Track all activity and pipeline progress using HubSpot CRM.

  • Collaborate with the sales team to refine messaging and outbound strategies.

  • Consistently meet activity, pipeline, and conversion targets.

Requirements

  • Minimum 1-2+ years experience as an SDR, BDR, or Inside Sales Representative.

  • Proven success in B2B outbound sales (beyond just inbound).

  • Experience working within structured sales cycles (24-hour sales cycles are advantageous).

  • Proficiency with HubSpot CRM is essential.

  • Strong objection-handling capabilities.

  • Experience in stable work environments preferred (e.g., VAT IT or similar industries).

  • Experience or strong interest in financial industry sectors such as credit solutions, online financial applications, or short-term loans is preferred.

  • Must be locally based and able to work onsite daily.

Ideal Candidate Profile

  • Comfortable initiating outbound prospecting and starting conversations from scratch.

  • Competitive and resilient, able to handle rejection and objections effectively.

  • Process-driven, reliable, and capable of following structured workflows.

  • Ready to hit the ground running in a fast-paced, short-term project.

  • Able to understand financial products and engage decision-makers in banking, fintech, credit, and short-term loan industries.

Compensation

  • Base Salary: Negotiable

  • Commission: Performance-based, uncapped
