About the role

We are hiring a Senior Sales Development Manager to join our New Markets Expansion based in Paris ! This is a hybrid role, requiring a minimum of two days per week in our Paris office. Wellhub is officially landing in new territories across Europe-starting with our concurrent launches in France and Benelux, with more countries to follow. We are looking for a visionary, high-velocity leader to manage our New Markets Sales Development Team . You will oversee a multicultural team of 5 to 7 Business Development Representatives. This is a unique opportunity to build a high-performing outbound engine from scratch, scale our brand into completely fresh territories, and shape the future leaders of Wellhub's commercial organization.

Responsibilities

  • 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.
  • 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.
  • Vertical Knowledge: Deeply understand the France and Benelux 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 remains a vital solution for companies navigating industry headwinds.
  • 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-personalised 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.

Requirements

  • Proven Track Record: 5+ years in Sales, with at least 1-2 years of experience as a Lead BDR or Front-line Manager.
  • Availability to travel regularly from Paris to the Benelux region.
  • The "Coach" DNA: A passion for seeing others succeed. You should have examples of BDRs OR AEs you've mentored who have been promoted into AE or Senior roles.
  • Analytical Skills: You can look at a conversion funnel and pinpoint exactly where the "leak" is-whether it's the initial hook, the discovery call, or the hand-off to the AE.
  • Strategic Narrative Building: Proven experience managing SDR/BDR teams for a Challenger Brand or a "non-commodity" solution. You must demonstrate the ability to create urgency for a product that is not yet a "household name" or is perceived as discretionary spend.
  • The "Value-First" Framework: You have moved beyond "feature-selling" and can coach reps to pivot from Product Interest to Business Impact. You should be able to show how you've successfully positioned a solution as "mission-critical" during budget-conscious cycles.
  • France and Benelux Market Savvy: Comfortable navigating the nuances of France and Benelux business culture and time zones.
  • HR Knowledge and experience: You are familiar with the HR space and can talk the CHRO language
  • Knowledge of key sales development metrics: Team Quota Attainment (% of team hitting SQL/Meeting/ Opps targets), Conversion
