Maven AGI is seeking a Manager of Sales Development to lead and coach a growing team of SDRs responsible for pipeline creation across the enterprise sales organization. Reporting to the Head of Sales Development, this is a hands-on frontline leadership role focused on coaching calls, refining messaging and prospecting strategies, inspecting performance, developing reps, and establishing operating rhythms that drive consistent team delivery. You will be a player-coach who stays close to the work. Key responsibilities include leading and developing SDR talent, establishing day-to-day operating rhythms around prospecting and pipeline creation, coaching reps on discovery, objection handling, account research, and multi-channel prospecting, and building a high-performance culture grounded in curiosity and accountability. You'll drive execution against team KPIs and pipeline goals using data to identify trends and improve performance, partner with Sales, Marketing, and Revenue Operations to translate Maven's ICP and go-to-market priorities into effective SDR execution, and help the team execute account-based prospecting into enterprise accounts. You'll continuously test and improve prospecting approaches, messaging, and workflows, ensure strong CRM hygiene and effective handoffs between SDRs and Account Executives, and leverage AI and modern sales technology to enhance team effectiveness. You'll also support onboarding, ramp, training, and ongoing enablement as the SDR organization scales. Ideal candidates have 5+ years of B2B sales experience including meaningful SDR/BDR team leadership, a track record of developing early-career sales talent, and deep understanding of enterprise prospecting and account-based selling. You're highly organized, metrics-oriented, fluent in modern sales technology (HubSpot, Salesforce, LinkedIn Sales Navigator, ZoomInfo, Gong, etc.), and excited about using AI to improve sales operations. Previous experience as an Account Executive or in closing roles is strongly preferred. You thrive in early-stage environments where processes are evolving and you're expected to roll up your sleeves and help build.
