Sales Development Representative (Remote)
About the Company
Turn is a venture-backed, experienced team of entrepreneurs focused on driving unprecedented value to high-volume employers. As an award-winning background check platform with an API-first approach, Turn specializes in providing robust support to talent platforms, staffing agencies, and employers across more than 30 different industries, with U.S., Canadian, and international screening capabilities.
About the Role
The Sales Development Representative (SDR) at Turn is an entry point into a high-growth sales career. You'll be on the front lines of our go-to-market motion: researching prospects, generating qualified pipeline, and setting the stage for our senior sales team to close. This role is ideal for someone who has had some exposure to sales or a customer-facing environment and is ready to take the next step in a metrics-driven, fast-paced startup.
You'll work closely with sales leadership to execute outbound campaigns, follow up on inbound leads, and develop a deep understanding of Turn's platform and the background screening space. If you're hungry, coachable, and excited about selling technology that genuinely helps companies hire better and faster — this role is for you.
Your Responsibilities
Prospect and qualify outbound leads through email, phone, LinkedIn, and other digital channels
Follow up on inbound marketing-qualified leads (MQLs) generated through campaigns, content, and events
Book discovery calls and product demos
Research target accounts and contacts to personalize outreach and identify pain points
Maintain accurate records of all outreach activity, lead status, and pipeline in HubSpot CRM
Meet and track weekly KPIs including outreach volume, connect rates, and meetings booked
Collaborate with marketing on campaign feedback and messaging refinement
Learn and articulate Turn's value proposition across key verticals including staffing, gig economy, healthcare, and retail
Qualifications
1–2 years of experience in a sales, business development, recruiting, or customer-facing role
Demonstrated ability to communicate clearly and persuasively in writing and on the phone
Comfortable working in a self-directed, remote environment with strong time management skills
Familiarity with CRM tools (HubSpot preferred) and sales engagement platforms
Experience with LinkedIn for professional outreach is a plus
Ability to receive and act on feedback quickly, you're accountable and growth-oriented
Bachelor's degree preferred but not required with relevant experience
Prior exposure to SaaS, HR tech, or background screening is a bonus, not a requirement
Perks & Compensation
Competitive base salary + commission structure
Comprehensive benefits package including health, dental, and vision
Competitive vacation policy
Work alongside a tight-knit team of experienced operators who will invest in your development
This role is remote (anywhere in the continental United States). Central Time Zone (CST) is preferred.
