About the role

We are hiring a Sales Development Senior Manager for our Client Sales team in Berlin or Munich to serve the German market and the DACH region . As a Senior Sales Development Manager, you are the direct leader of our front-line BDR team. Your goal is to build, coach, and maintain a high-value prospecting engine. You aren't just watching dashboards; you are in the trenches with your team, refining their "hook," sharpening their business acumen, and ensuring that every inbound lead and outbound strategy is executed with full sales cycle impact. At Wellhub Urban Sports Club, we are on a mission to make every company a wellness company, being the global leader in this space. As a Senior Sales Development Manager, you aren't just managing a team; you are the architect of a prospecting engine that connects organisations with life-changing wellbeing solutions, leveraging AI tools and the company's software stack. Every meeting your team sets and every partnership they initiate directly contributes to improving the health and happiness of employees across Germany.

Responsibilities

  • Front-Line People Management
  • Inspiring Leadership: Act as the direct leader and mentor for our front-line Business Development Representative (BDR) team, fostering a culture of growth and purpose.
  • Daily Coaching: Conduct live call-shadowing and deep-dive reviews to sharpen your team's ability to communicate the transformative power of Wellhub Urban Sportsclub.
  • Performance & Journey: Take full accountability for a team of 5-8 BDRs, guiding their professional journey and ensuring they hit the milestones that drive our mission forward.
  • Hiring & Training: Lead the interview process for new talent and execute a seamless onboarding program that gets new starters hitting "active" status within 30 days.
  • Stakeholder Management: Excellence in building strong partnerships with marketing and sales.
  • Market Expertise & Business Acumen:
  • Vertical Knowledge: Deeply understand the German B2B ecosystems to teach your team how to position wellbeing as a "business-critical" priority for CHROs and CFOs.
  • Economic Awareness: Pivot messaging based on market shifts to ensure Wellhub Urban Sportsclub remains a vital solution for companies navigating industry headwinds.
  • Inbound & Outbound Process Mastery:
  • Inbound Agility: Manage the "speed-to-lead" for inbound inquiries, ensuring high conversion rates through rigorous qualification.
  • Outbound Strategy: Work with the team to build hyper-personalized outbound "clusters." You'll move beyond generic sequences to high-intent, research-backed prospecting.
  • Tech Stack Champion: Ensure the team is getting maximum ROI out of Salesforce, LinkedIn Sales Navigator, and AI-assisted prospecting tools.
  • BoB Management: Develop the best-in-class strategies for managing the rep's book of business and running the outreach-prospecting playbook and turning curiosity into attention with intention.
  • Live the mission: inspire and empower others by genuinely caring for your own wellbeing and your colleagues. Bring wellbeing to the forefront of work, and create a supportive environment where everyone feels comfortable taking care of themselves, taking time off, and finding work-life wellness.
