Join to apply for the
Regional BDR Team Manager
role at
Canonical .
Canonical is a leading provider of open source software and operating systems to the global enterprise and technology markets. Our platform, Ubuntu, is widely used in breakthrough enterprise initiatives such as public cloud, data science, AI, engineering innovation, and IoT. Our customers include the world's leading public cloud and silicon providers, and industry leaders in many sectors. The company is a pioneer of global distributed collaboration, with over 1,200 colleagues in more than 75 countries and very few office‑based roles. Teams meet two to four times yearly in person in interesting locations around the world to align on strategy and execution.
The company is founder‑led, profitable, and growing. We are expanding our sales and field engineering teams globally, including our sales development representative (SDR) teams. Our SDRs are typically outstanding graduates from STEM fields who would like to launch a sales career at Canonical. We are hiring
SDR Team Managers
to run new inbound and outbound teams. Our goal is not only to manage inbound leads for a global tech company but also to develop outstanding sales professionals with high integrity, high empathy, and a rigorous work ethic. Our sales development organisation is also a sales academy, and as such, we are looking for SDR Team Managers who take a strong interest in the development of skills and the establishment of culture.
In this role your primary objective is to manage and mentor a successful team of 2–10 SDRs / BDRs and maintain a multi‑million dollar pipeline. You will enjoy this role if you are organised, persistent, analytical, hardworking, and care to ensure that smart and ambitious people learn and develop the skills they need to represent you and the company in outstanding ways over the course of their career – both while they are on your team and as they move onward to more senior sales and alliances positions. You should be determined to grow your own skills as well as those of your team, enjoy learning about new technologies, and be open to innovation and experimentation with new outbound approaches to adapt to changes in the market.
We value:
Excellent academic results at school and university
Bachelor's or equivalent degree in Business or STEM
Knowledge and passion for business development, sales and technology
Track record of bringing exceptional outbound sales development results
Commitment to continuous learning and improvement – curious, flexible, scientific
Creative problem solving and cross‑team collaboration
Leadership experience of one form or another
Able to use data to drive team activities and continuous improvement
What we offer you
Distributed work environment with twice‑yearly team sprints in person
Personal learning and development budget of USD 2,000 per year
Annual compensation review
Recognition rewards
Annual holiday leave
Maternity and paternity leave
Employee Assistance Programme
Opportunity to travel to new locations to meet colleagues
Priority Pass, and travel upgrades for long haul company events
