Business Development Representative (BDR) - New York, NY

Help shape how the world’s leading companies develop great leaders.

If you’re energized by fostering client relationships, love the thrill of opening doors, and want your work to have a real impact, this opportunity is for you. We’re growing fast, and we’re looking for a BDR to join our team of BDRs in NYC to accelerate that growth by starting sales conversations with senior leaders at the world’s most influential companies.

At Big Think+, we’re helping develop leaders and transform culture at companies like Google, Microsoft, Netflix, Marriott, Bank of America, and Tory Burch. We’ve created over 1,700 video-based lessons that feature more F500 execs, Ivy League academics, and best-selling authors than any other leadership solution on the market.

What you’ll do

• Open doors at iconic companies – Run creative, thoughtful outreach campaigns (email, LinkedIn, and phone) to book sales meetings with senior executives.
• Learn how consultative selling works – Research companies, identify the right stakeholders, and build tailored outbound strategies – not spammy email blasts.
• Work closely with experienced sales leaders – Collaborate with a sales director and leadership to get coaching and see how deals move through a sales pipeline.

What you’ll get out of this opportunity

• Competitive base salary + uncapped commission
• Hands-on mentorship and a collaborative, supportive culture
• Advancement opportunities within a fast-growing business
• Experience selling an impactful product in a growing, competitive market
• Access the Big Think+ platform to sharpen your own leadership skills
• Access to WeWork offices where you’ll collaborate with other BDRs
• Comprehensive wellness benefits: memberships to HealthAdvocate, Teladoc, OneMedical, and Talkspace
• Medical, Dental, Vision, Life, and Disability Insurance, 401(k), and Commuter Benefits

What you’ll need

• You’re competitive, driven, and motivated by hitting goals
• 1-2 years of sales outreach experience a plus
• You have a can-do, entrepreneurial mindset and are excited by sales
• You communicate clearly and confidently (written and verbal)
• You’re organized, curious, creative, and thoughtful

This is an in-person position in Manhattan with flexibility to periodically work from home.

Salary: $55,000/year base salary, $80,000/year On-Target Earnings including monthly bonus potential.
