Business Development Representative

BusRight • Chicago, IL

6d • Remote

About The Position

We believe public education creates freedom, and that access to that education starts with a safe and reliable ride to school. That’s why we built BusRight, a modern transportation platform trusted by hundreds of thousands of Transportation Directors, Drivers, and Parents across 36+ states to make school transportation safer, smarter, and more equitable.
Job Mission
Following a $23M fundraise, BusRight is entering the next phase of growth, fueled by strong year over year momentum and continued investment in our GTM organization. We’re building a revenue team that values professionalism, curiosity, and real partnership with the districts we serve.
In this role, you are not a transactional meeting-setter, you are a pipeline builder and trusted partner to our Account Executives, Marketing team, and prospective customers. You’ll generate high-quality pipelines through thoughtful outbound outreach and inbound follow-up, rooted in credibility, care, and “magical hospitality.” This role is ideal for experienced BDRs looking to sharpen their consultative skills and grow into closing or leadership roles.
You’ll join a fun, driven, and collaborative BDR team that takes pride in working hard, learning together, and pushing each other to be better as we build and scale BusRight’s GTM motion. If you love building trust, taking ownership, and growing alongside your teammates, this role is for you.
Why This Role Is Unique
Join early: You’ll join BusRight at a formative moment in our revenue journey. Your ideas will matter, your feedback will be heard, and your work will directly shape how we prospect, qualify, and partner with school districts nationwide.
An elevated BDR role: We prioritize preparation, discovery, and buyer validation over volume, trusting you to think critically, not just execute tasks.
Clear career growth: We believe in promoting from within and offering transparent advancement opportunities across sales and the broader organization.
Cross-functional exposure: You’ll work closely with Account Executives, Marketing, Enablement, and Events gaining hands-on exposure to the full sales cycle and broader GTM strategy.
This is a chance to join a fast growing technology company early and make your mark on a territory and a team that’s transitioning how millions of students access their education every day. If you're energized by growth and driven by relationships we’d love to hear from you.
