Market Sales Development Representative
About The Position
At Verstela, we don’t just fill jobs—we create success stories for the talent, clients and communities we serve. Our guiding principle is simple: we are successful when we help others become successful. Year after year, we're named to ClearlyRated's Best of Staffing list, a testament to our ongoing commitment to service excellence and customer satisfaction. If you’re energized by building relationships, opening doors, and turning a cold prospect into a real business conversation, this could be a great opportunity for you. As a Market Sales Development Representative (SDR), you’ll help drive growth for your local Verstela market by identifying prospective clients, starting conversations, and scheduling discovery meetings for our sales and branch leadership teams. This is a highly active, outbound sales role. You’ll spend your time making calls, connecting with prospects through email and LinkedIn, visiting businesses in person, and finding creative ways to build relationships. Success in this role comes from consistency, curiosity, resilience, and a willingness to do what it takes to get the conversation started.
Requirements
- At least 1 year of experience in a metrics driven role (retail, hospitality, SDR or outbound sales are all encouraged to apply)

- You know it takes some “no’s “ to get to a yes
- Proficient in MS Word, and Outlook, and quick to learn new software.
- Strong verbal and written communication skills to engage effectively with decision-makers.
- Competitive and goal-oriented, but also relationship-driven. You enjoy the challenge of getting someone’s attention, finding the right approach, and creating an opportunity where one didn’t exist before. You’re comfortable picking up the phone, walking into a business, trying something different when the first approach doesn’t work, and staying focused on the end goal.
- Bring a “Whatever It Takes to Win” mindset and enjoy being part of a team that celebrates results.

- Prospect and identify new business opportunities within your assigned market.
- Initiate conversations with business leaders to schedule appointments for our branch teams.
