About The Position

Triple Whale is hiring an SDR Manager to help scale our Sales Development organization during an important stage of growth. We already have strong SDR leadership in place, and we’re adding a second SDR Manager to increase coaching capacity, bring fresh strategic thinking, and help us execute a more sophisticated outbound motion. This person will manage a team of approximately 5–8 SDRs, owning their day-to-day performance, development, coaching, and promotion readiness. This is a hands-on leadership role for someone who loves getting close to the reps, the accounts, the messaging, and the numbers. You’ll help SDRs improve how they research accounts, reach prospects, book qualified meetings, and create meaningful pipeline. You’ll also help Triple Whale unlock underpenetrated segments of our overall total addressable market through sharper targeting, stronger outbound execution, and more strategic use of modern sales development tools. We’re focused on helping the team prospect smarter, prioritize better accounts, personalize outreach more effectively, and scale outbound execution without sacrificing quality. The right person will be excited to combine strong SDR leadership fundamentals with a modern approach to pipeline generation, including effective use of tools like Apollo and other sales development platforms.
