Field Sales Development Representative- San Franscisco, CA
About The Position
Vendelux is transforming how companies discover, evaluate, and maximize the impact of events. Event marketers are the driving force behind pipeline and brand — yet events remain one of the least optimized and most opaque marketing channels. Vendelux changes that. We provide the system of record for event marketing, giving teams the data and insights they need to make smarter, more strategic decisions. Our AI-powered platform delivers proprietary insights across 250,000+ events, helping high-growth companies identify where their ideal customers will be, maximize ROI, and turn events into a scalable growth channel. Customers often describe Vendelux as an event marketer’s dream. A key part of this is our growing network of event organizer partnerships — where organizers share first-party attendee and sponsorship data, and in return gain access to valuable market insights. In addition, Vendelux Meetings helps customers turn event insights into action — using AI to identify high-value attendees and automatically book 1:1 meetings with the right prospects at conferences. This allows teams to maximize pipeline generation and make every event materially more impactful. Founded in 2021, Vendelux is a Series A SaaS company backed by leading investors including FirstMark, with a recent $14M round. Our team brings experience from companies like Bain, ZoomInfo, Airbnb, FanDuel, Shutterstock, Compass and more. We’re looking for a driven and outgoing Field Sales Development Representative (SDR) with a passion for building relationships and uncovering opportunities. In this role, you’ll attend industry events, conferences, and networking gatherings to generate qualified leads and set up high-quality meetings for our sales team. This is not your typical desk-based SDR position. You’ll be representing our brand in person, engaging prospects face-to-face, and playing a key role in filling the top of the funnel with strategic, valuable opportunities. We are looking to hire SDR's based in the San Francisco bay area.
