TL;DR – Why This Role Matters
We’re scaling our Business Development Representative (BDR) program, and we need a leader who can hire, coach, and inspire early-career sellers while building the operating system for Scribe’s next stage of growth. This is our first dedicated BDR leadership role, a high-leverage opportunity to roll up your sleeves, establish the playbook, and fuel our go-to-market strategy.
You’ll guide the team as we evolve from inbound motions to a true sales-assisted and outbound engine, a shift critical to scaling our revenue next year. Along the way, you’ll partner closely with Sales, RevOps, and Marketing to tighten handoffs, improve lead quality, and drive pipeline that directly impacts our growth.
It’s a hands-on, scrappy role where success means building a strong performance culture, developing talent into future AEs and GTM leaders, and scaling a motion that becomes one of the most important growth drivers at Scribe.
About The Role
As a BDR Manager at Scribe, you will:

• Hire, onboard, and grow a team of early-career sellers with clear career paths into AE and CS roles.
• Coach in the trenches through live call reviews, email breakdowns, and structured 1:1s that raise conversion rates.
• Build operating rhythm with dashboards, CRM hygiene standards, and weekly pipeline reviews.
• Partner across Sales, RevOps, and Marketing to improve lead quality, routing, and handoffs.
• Develop and refine the playbook, in partnership with our sales strategy team, from cadences and talk tracks to qualification criteria, for a horizontal product used across industries.
• Model customer excellence by jumping into calls and turning insights into repeatable plays.
• Scale with speed: bias toward action, A/B testing, and operationalizing what works quickly.
