Your Mission

As the SDR Team Manager (Sales Development Manager) at Propeller, you will be responsible for building, leading, and developing a high-performing SDR team that drives the company’s new business pipeline.

You will play a hands-on role in setting clear goals, defining processes, and creating accountability across the team. Beyond hitting numbers, your mission is to cultivate a results-driven, motivated, and growth-oriented culture where team members are not only meeting their targets but are also growing into high-impact team members at Propeller.

In doing so, you’ll not only drive a qualified pipeline for Propeller but also leave a lasting impact by developing the next generation of sales talent.

You have a consumer-centric mindset and sales approach. You know how to coach on asking strong questions, handling objections, and booking qualified meetings. Knowledge around SPIN, MEDDIC, and BANT is a plus.
