AI Use in Our Hiring Process

We use technology, including artificial intelligence (AI), to support parts of our hiring process. This may include AI-assisted scheduling and candidate communications, and AI-generated interview notes, guides or summaries to help our team focus on the conversation. All hiring decisions are made by our hiring team.

About the Role

We're scaling Float's outbound engine through our next phase of growth, and we need a BDR Manager to build a high-performance culture across our XDR team (ISR, SDR, BDR). Reporting to our Head of Sales, you'll own the number: pipeline generated, deals accelerated, and customers activated. This is a hands-on, player-coach role for someone who wants to build a modern, AI-first outbound function from the ground up, not inherit a legacy playbook.

What You'll Be Responsible For

• Own and forecast the team's pipeline generation targets across ISR, SDR, and BDR functions, and carry accountability for hitting them

• Build a high-performance coaching cadence: recruit, hire, onboard, and continuously develop the team against clear activity, conversion, and quality benchmarks

• Run a structured training and enablement cadence, including regular call reviews and teardowns, to sharpen talk tracks, objection handling, and qualification rigour across the team

• Drive outcomes that matter beyond activity: increase average deal size and deal throughput on BDR/SDR-sourced pipeline, and improve first-spend activation rate on ISR-managed accounts

• Build and roll out AI-first workflows across prospecting and list-building, call and email drafting, conversation intelligence, and forecasting, and extend what works to the wider marketing and sales org

• Develop and nurture strong relationships across marketing and sales, delivering on a single, shared pipeline goal rather than siloed team targets

• Own the XDR tech stack: CRM hygiene, sequencing, enrichment, and reporting, partnering with RevOps on attribution and forecasting accuracy

• Craft and continuously test messaging, talk tracks, and qualification criteria as the market and our product evolve

• Identify and act on process, efficiency, and productivity improvements without waiting to be asked

• You Raise the Bar. You care about doing things well and efficiently. You balance speed with rigour and always look for ways to improve how we work.

• You Win as a Team. You're a generous collaborator who values communication, context, and shared wins. You lift others up and help make the team stronger.

What You'll Bring:

• 3+ years managing a BDR, SDR, or ISR team at a high-growth B2B company, ideally fintech or SaaS, with real accountability for a pipeline number
