Outbound Business Development Representative

As an Outbound BDR, you’ll play a key role in HubSpot’s growth engine. You'll be the first touchpoint for many of our future customers, sparking conversations through strategic outreach, uncovering pain points, and qualifying leads. You’ll partner closely with Account Executives to deliver high-quality meetings that drive pipeline, impact, and revenue. Along the way, you’ll sharpen your sales toolkit daily and gain exposure to a world-class sales organization.

Compensation & Career Track:

This is the first of three levels in our BDR program — designed to take you from prospecting pro to promoting to a full-cycle closer.
💰 Base salary: $53,800 annually
📈 On-target commission: $23,000 annually
🎯 OTE (on-target earnings): $76,800 annually
With each promotion, both salary and commission increase — along with your impact.

What You’ll Do:

• Own and execute outbound prospecting through high-volume outreach (60–100+ activities/day) via phone, email, and LinkedIn.
• Collaborate with Account Executives to target strategic accounts and refine outreach strategy.
• Qualify leads based on fit, need, and urgency — and book quality discovery meetings.
• Hit (and exceed) KPIs for activity, meetings delivered, and pipeline impact.
• Grow fast. Learn fast. Get coached. Apply it. Repeat.

What You Won’t Do:

• Coast. We move fast, we test, we iterate, and we compete.
• Wait for someone to tell you what to do. We value self-starters who take ownership.
• Treat this as “just a job.” This is a foundational role, setting you up for a successful long term career in sales.

We’re Looking For People Who:

• Have 0-2 years of professional sales experience, excluding projects, internships, coursework, bootcamps 
• Are eager to grow long-term within a sales path–if your focus is split between sales and other paths like customer success, marketing, operations, etc, this role likely won’t be the best fit.
• Are resilient, coachable, and crave feedback to improve.
• Are curious and ask why, not just how.
• Set high standards for themselves — and hit them.
• Are technologically fluent, adapting to new technologies and leveraging AI in your day-to-day.
• Communicate clearly, write thoughtfully, and can confidently conduct a cold call.
• Are energized by a fast-paced environment and a bit of friendly competition.
• Either have past sales success or have demonstrated excellence in goal-driven roles (think: fundraising, athletics, service industry, etc).

Tools We Use (and You’ll Learn):

• HubSpot (of course)!
• LinkedIn Sales Navigator
• AI Powered Tools across all aspects of the role for research & outreach
• Slack, Zoom, LeadIQ, Google Suite, Zoominfo, and more
