Description
About the role
We're hiring a BDR Manager to lead and scale CourtReserve's outbound engine. You'll hire, coach, and drive a high-velocity BDR team that generates new-logo pipeline across the racquet-sports market. This is a build-and-scale role — you'll own the outbound prospecting motion end to end and the metrics that prove it's working.
Responsibilities
- Lead, coach, and develop a team of BDRs — own their ramp, performance, career growth, and day-to-day execution.
- Stand up and scale the outbound motion: cadences, sequences, targeting, playbooks, and messaging — and iterate on them continuously.
- Own the team's pipeline-generation and activity targets; forecast and report weekly, monthly, and quarterly results to the VP of Sales.
- Hire, onboard, and ramp new BDRs; run performance management (coaching plans, PIPs, promotions).
- Build and refine call scripts, email sequences, and LinkedIn outreach, plus competitive positioning
- Manage the outbound tech stack: call coaching and QA in Gong, pipeline and activity hygiene in Salesforce, data and account/contact sourcing in Apollo, and high-velocity dialing in Nooks.
- Partner with Marketing on lead flow and AI/agentic outbound, and with Account Executives on lead handoff and meeting quality.
- Run the team's operating rhythm — standups, 1:1s, pipeline reviews, contests/SPIFFs — and build a culture of collaboration and winning.
Metrics you'll own (high-velocity BDR team)
- Activity: ~100 dials, ~250 emails, and ~25 LinkedIn touches per BDR per week; ~25 target accounts worked per day with 2–3 verified contacts each.
- Output: qualified meetings booked and held per rep per month; opportunities and new-logo ARR sourced by the team.
- Conversion: lead to meeting, meeting-held rate, meeting to opportunity, and opportunity to closed-won
- Team health: ramp-to-productivity time, pipeline-target and quota attainment, and account/contact coverage of the ICP universe.
Requirements
Must-have experience
- Proven experience leading/managing a BDR or SDR team.
- Experience standing up an outbound motion from the ground up.
- Track record managing a team to high-velocity activity and pipeline metrics in a fast-paced, high-growth environment.
- Strong coaching and enablement skills — you make reps measurably better every week.
- Data-driven approach to targeting, messaging, and performance management.
- Excellent written and verbal communication.
- EST time zone preference.
Recommended experience
- Hands-on experience with Gong, Salesforce, Apollo, and Nooks.
- Familiarity with AI/agentic outbound tooling.
- SaaS background, ideally vertical SaaS or SMB/mid-market.
The skills and abilities you'll need to succeed
- Leadership presence with drive, grit, and a competitive mindset — and the ability to instill it in a team.
- Ability to hire, motivate, and retain high-performing reps.
- Comfort with continuous iteration — taking feedback from calls, AEs, and data, and refining the motion daily.
- Excellent time management and organizational skills to run a high-volume team.
- Customer-focused, positive, and resilient in the face of rejection.
- Intellectual curiosity and eagerness to master the industry, CourtReserve's solutions, and the competitive landscape.
