New York · On-site
Sales Development Representative
You will join Piper's SDR team, opening conversations with general contractors and construction managers and booking the meetings our AE and founders close. This is a role for someone early in their career who wants to learn sales from the ground up at a fast-growing AI company, reporting to our CRO, with a clear path to Account Executive. You will travel often across the US and run our booths on the ground at the conferences marketing selects, from setup to follow-up.
What you'll do
- Research target GCs and CMs and find the right people: preconstruction managers, chief estimators, operations leaders
- Run outbound across LinkedIn, email and phone, with messages that speak the language of estimators
- Book qualified discovery calls and demos for the AE and founders
- Follow up on inbound leads, event contacts and webinar sign-ups within the same day
- Travel to construction conferences and trade shows across the US, including OJBA Expo, New York Build and Chicago Build
- Own execution at every event: on-site logistics, setup, running the booth on the day, and turning every conversation into a booked meeting
- Plan pre-show outreach to book meetings at each event, and follow up with every contact within 48 hours
- Keep HubSpot clean and share what you learn about what messaging works
What we look for
- 1 to 3 years in sales, business development or a customer-facing role, or a construction role and a strong wish to move into sales
- Persistence and resilience: you are comfortable hearing no and picking up the phone again
- Clear, confident writing and speaking
- Curiosity about construction and how GCs actually win and build projects
- Organized and coachable, with a bias to action, and able to run event logistics without dropping details
- Willing and excited to travel frequently across the US, including multi-day trips to conferences
Nice to have
- A degree or experience in construction management, engineering or architecture
- Experience as an estimator, project engineer or assistant PM at a GC or subcontractor
- Experience with LinkedIn Sales Navigator, HubSpot or other outbound tools
What we offer
- Base salary plus commission on meetings and closed deals, and equity
- Hands-on coaching from the CRO and a defined path to Account Executive
