Role
Who you are
- Have 1-2 years experience in a GTM role at a B2B startup
- Have proven success booking demos in sales development roles before
- Are early in your career and looking for a steep learning curve
- Are a sharp writer – you know how to keep things clear, relevant, and human
- Have experience making sales calls and taking a multi-channel approach to sales
- Are organised and detail-oriented – you can keep moving parts on track and take ownership of your work
- Are excited by AI, early-stage startups, and building something new in a fast-moving space
What the job involves
- We’re hiring our first dedicated SDR at Outverse and are looking for someone sharp, ambitious, and excited to help build our outbound engine from the ground up
- Your mission is to help us generate more high-quality pipeline through thoughtful, hyper-personalised outreach to senior decision-makers at some of the best software companies in Europe and the US
- Until now, our outbound sales motion has been founder-led. While this will continue to be a core part of the mix, we’re now looking to ramp up what’s already working and experiment with additional tactics
- This isn’t a spray-and-pray sales role. We value quality over quantity. You’ll go deep on each account, write messages that actually get read, and make calls that hold attention. You’ll work closely with the GTM team to refine our outbound engine, and will get exposure to every part of the go-to-market motion and play a big role in shaping how we grow
- If you’re early in your career, hungry to learn fast, and want to work at a startup where your work directly drives growth, we’d love to talk
- This role reports directly to our CEO/cofounder and will work closely with our marketing lead
- High-touch outbound – Develop tailored 1:1 outreach (LinkedIn, phone, and email) that starts conversations with senior buyers at mid-market and enterprise software companies
- Research and prioritise accounts – working with account lists, you’ll identify the right people to target, and craft creative outbound that speaks to them directly
- Support outbound campaigns – scale what’s working by keeping outreach tracked and organised. Deliver weekly updates and help us turn wins into repeatable playbooks
- Work closely with GTM team – you’ll collaborate directly with the GTM team, get feedback fast, and see your work in motion
- Learn GTM from the inside – you’ll build hands-on experience across outbound, messaging, strategy, and early-stage sales process
Salary benchmarks
Our take
Online community spaces have existed since the start of the internet in the form of internet forums, but innovations in web design have made social media platforms far more popular over the last two decades. Whilst platforms such as Facebook facilitate many forms of community engagement, community builders must follow a "one size fits all" approach, greatly restricting how a space can be used.
Outverse provides a development platform for online community spaces, with features including space customization through no-code building blocks, automation tools, native live streaming hosting, and integration with major community platforms. The platform uniquely encourages users to "escape notification overload", helping to facilitate this through custom viewing modes and organization tools.
Outverse have identified a gap in the market for a purpose built community tool. They have set themselves apart from outdated/legacy forum software and unscalable options (like Slack and Discord), and recently had a successful Product Hunt launch securing #1 Product of the Week. With a much needed product and investment from a top tier US VC, the company are well set to make an impact in this space.
