Business Development Representative

Job Description

Be the first conversation that changes everything. At Sage, we help small and medium-sized businesses thrive — and it all starts with a conversation. As a Business Development Representative, you’ll be that first connection. You’ll introduce new customers to Sage, spark interest, and open the door to smarter ways of working. This is more than just outreach. It’s about building trust, understanding challenges, and creating meaningful engagement from day one.

What you’ll be doing

- Connect with SMB owners and decision-makers through outbound outreach (calls, email, LinkedIn and beyond)
- Introduce Sage and articulate how our solutions can support business success
- Qualify opportunities using frameworks like BANT or SPIN
- Handle objections with confidence and curiosity
- Build relationships that lead to lasting customer value
- Collaborate closely with sales teams to convert opportunities into revenue

Expect a high-energy environment where resilience matters — you’ll hear “no”, but you’ll turn it into learning, momentum, and ultimately, success.

What you’ll bring

- Experience in a lead generation or outbound sales role
- Working knowledge of BANT, SPIN, or similar sales methodologies
- Confidence in handling objections and navigating customer conversations
- A proactive mindset — you enjoy building pipeline and creating opportunities
- Strong communication skills and a natural ability to build rapport
