About The Position

BigMarker is looking for a highly-organized and team-oriented Business Development Representative (BDR) to help our customers implement BigMarker’s software to execute virtual, in-person and hybrid events.

The Business Development Representative (BDR) role is a sales and business development position with the objective of generating new business opportunities. BDRs are responsible for generating outbound sales leads and qualifying inbound marketing leads to identify and establish contact with qualified prospective buyers. On a daily basis, BDRs are making cold calls, sending emails, and leading high-level discovery calls with prospects.
