Business Development Representative

Join us!

Telness Tech is on a mission to simplify and digitize the telecom industry. Our platform powers next-generation telecom providers, from incumbents, to MVNOs, and eSIM challengers and non-telecom players looking to embed connectivity into their offerings. With our roots in Stockholm (Sweden) and our sights on a global scale, we're building the future of telecom—fast, flexible, and customer-first.

As we accelerate our growth, we're looking for a highly driven Business Development Representative (BDR) to strengthen our pipeline creation engine — a high-impact role at the core of our commercial engine.

Your Mission

The BDR is responsible for generating qualified sales opportunities within our target segments. This role focuses on outbound prospecting, inbound qualification, account research, and partner-driven lead generation — ensuring a predictable and high-quality pipeline for our Account Executives.

This isn't a standard BDR role. As a fast-growing scale-up, we operate in an uncertain, fast-moving, and challenging environment where no day is the same. You will collaborate directly with Sales and Marketing, engage closely with our commercial team, and help shape our outbound playbook from the ground up.

What You Will Do

You will report to the CRO and work cross-functionally across the business. Your day-to-day would look like:

Pipeline Creation

• Identify, research, and target potential customers within defined ICP segments

• Generate qualified sales opportunities through structured outbound outreach (calls, email, LinkedIn, events)

• Qualify inbound leads and determine fit based on defined criteria

• Conduct discovery conversations to validate need, timing, and decision structure

• Book qualified meetings for Account Executives

Strategic Prospecting

• Build account lists based on territory strategy

• Execute account-based prospecting initiatives

• Engage key stakeholders across multiple levels in target organisations

• Support executive outreach initiatives

CRM & Reporting

• Maintain accurate records in Salesforce

• Track outreach activity and conversion metrics

• Ensure data quality and pipeline hygiene

• Report weekly on opportunity creation performance

Collaboration

• Work closely with Sales and Marketing

• Provide feedback on messaging, objections, and market insights

• Align with marketing campaigns, ABM initiatives, and industry events to accelerate opportunity generation

What You Bring To The Table

• A bachelor's degree in Business, Marketing, Communications, or a related field (preferred)

• 1–4 years in B2B SaaS sales, SDR, BDR, or similar role

• Experience in outbound prospecting

• Experience working with CRM tools (Salesforce preferred)

• Experience in tech, SaaS, telecom, or digital platforms is a plus

• Strong communication skills (verbal, written, and in presentation)

• Confident engaging senior stakeholders

• Resilient and comfortable with high-volume outbound activity

• Structured, data-driven, and commercially minded

• Ability to articulate value propositions clearly

• An adaptable and resilient approach to work, ready to operate in a fast-paced environment

• A "prestigeless" personality — no one is above anyone or any task
