Sales Development Representative at Human

ABOUT THE ROLE HUMAN is redefining the traditional SDR function. This is not a high-volume, task-based role focused on sending emails and qualifying inbound leads. Instead, this position is designed for a more strategic, analytical, and growth-oriented individual who wants to operate as a true business partner to Sales. As a Sales Development Representative (SDR), you will be responsible for managing the full sales cycle—discovery through close—for approved inbound accounts that may not be our Ideal Customer Profile (ICP), as well as executing controlled coordinated outbound and follow-up activities on select leads and accounts that are in the Ideal Customer Profile (ICP). You’ll work alongside AI-powered tools and data-driven insights to execute highly targeted campaigns, while developing the foundational skills needed to grow into an Account Executive role. You will work closely with Sales Engineers, Field Sales, Marketing Ops, and RevOps to drive pipeline growth and conversion. Your current reporting structure remains a direct line into RevOps and a matrixed report into Sales. This is an opportunity to step into an elevated SDR role—one that emphasizes thinking, planning, and execution over volume, and offers a clear path for career advancement within a high-performing sales organization.
