What the job involves
- As a Sales Development Representative (SDR), you’ll be the driving force behind building our network of kitchen operators by generating and qualifying leads
- Based in London, this role offers you the opportunity to engage with some of the UK's most exciting restauranteurs and entrepreneurs, helping them boost their revenues and profits
- Although we've raised significant investments and we're a profitable business, we're still a young and small team
- This is not your average tech sales role! You'll work closely with Account Executives, contributing directly to the sales cycle while building the foundation for a successful career in sales
- Prospect and qualify leads: Generate business opportunities by researching, emailing, calling, and engaging with restaurant owners and operators in and out of London
- Outreach: Build and manage outbound campaigns using tools like HubSpot to drive engagement in your assigned region
- Set appointments: Book qualified meetings for Account Executives by effectively communicating our concept and value proposition
- Collaborate: Work closely with Account Executives to ensure seamless handovers of qualified leads and a smooth sales process
- Pipeline management: Keep meticulous records of your progress and activities in HubSpot to provide visibility into your performance
- Learn and grow: Gain deep insights into the sales cycle and refine your skills with hands-on training and mentorship
Salary benchmarks
Our take
Growth Kitchen is capitalising on the ever-growing appetite for convenient food amongst the increasingly prominent young, urban and professional classes. The startup is hoping to revolutionise food brand scaling in the same way grocery has been revolutionised by 10-minute delivery apps.
The company’s key value offering is its smart satellite kitchen network. Restaurants that have high-volume delivery can use Growth Kitchen’s proprietary data to identify the areas where expansion would make sense, and then leverage the startup’s physical network of kitchens to outsource recipes to those locations.
The company is at an early stage so scaling effectively is key. The plan is to have 100s of sites across the UK and Europe by 2025.
While Growth Kitchen’s vision has won plaudits from experts in the space like Gorillas and Deliveroo executives, rolling out the business is going to be a lot more challenging. Any drop in quality standards would burn its reputation amongst the restaurants it will be representing to end customers.
