About Salesforce

Salesforce is the #1 AI CRM, where humans with agents drive customer success together. Here, ambition meets action. Tech meets trust. And innovation isn’t a buzzword — it’s a way of life. The world of work as we know it is changing and we're looking for Trailblazers who are passionate about bettering business and the world through AI, driving innovation, and keeping Salesforce's core values at the heart of it all.

Ready to level-up your career at the company leading workforce transformation in the agentic era? You’re in the right place! Agentforce is the future of AI, and you are the future of Salesforce.

As a BDR, you'll be a vital first connection for potential customers.

As a problem-solver, strategist, and brand ambassador, you'll be responsible for:

  • Generating new business opportunities by identifying and connecting with potential customers.

  • Developing and qualifying these opportunities through strategic, targeted outreach.

  • Working in close partnership with our Sales and Marketing teams to fuel our collective success.


A Day in the Life of a BDR

  • Work with partners across a breadth of industries and verticals

  • Qualifying leads, contacts and accounts to understand use case and opportunity

  • Maintain active engagement with new and existing leads through creative follow-up

  • Partner closely with Account Executives to move qualified pipeline through the sales cycle

  • Building a point of view on how to help qualify customers needs

  • Speaking to value and return on investment vs. technical functionality

  • Establishing credibility and trust with internal and external partners

  • Demonstrating adaptability and flexibility as part of an ever-growing sales organisation

  • Achieve monthly quota related to opportunities generated

  • Commit to ongoing learning and development


We're Invested in Your Growth
New to sales or stepping outside your comfort zone? That's exactly who we hire. At Salesforce, your growth is our priority. You'll be set up for success from day one with:

  • Structured onboarding and in-depth training on Salesforce products, sales methodology, and our proven outbound playbook

  • Continuous coaching from dedicated sales leaders, mentors, and a supportive peer network

  • A collaborative, inclusive team culture where curiosity is celebrated, questions are encouraged, and wins are shared


What We're Looking For

  • Clear, confident communicator; comfortable on the phone and in writing

  • Self-motivated and resilient, with a bias for action

  • Curious and coachable, with a genuine growth mindset

  • Able to think on your feet and adapt quickly

  • Track record of hitting targets or critical metrics (any field)

  • Prospecting or cold-calling experience is a strong plus, not a requirement

This is a sales role, and we believe in being transparent about what success looks like. Your impact will be measured through clear, achievable monthly goals for qualified opportunities and team-closed business. We're looking for self-motivated, resilient individuals who thrive in a goal-oriented environment and we'll give you the framework to hit those goals.

Posting Statement

Salesforce is an equal opportunity employer and maintains a policy of non-discrimination with all employees and applicants for employment. What does that mean exactly? It means that at Salesforce, we believe in equality for all. And we believe we can lead the path to equality in part by creating a workplace that’s inclusive, and free from discrimination. Know your rights: workplace discrimination is illegal. Any employee or potential employee will be assessed on the basis of merit, competence and qualifications – without regard to race, religion, color, national origin, sex, sexual orientation, gender expression or identity, transgender status, age, disability, veteran or marital status, political viewpoint, or other classifications protected by law. This policy applies to current and prospective employees, no matter where they are in their Salesforce employment journey. It also applies to recruiting, hiring, job assignment, compensation, promotion, benefits, training, assessment of job performance, discipline, termination, and everything in between. Recruiting, hiring, and promotion decisions at Salesforce are fair and based on merit. The same goes for compensation, benefits, promotions, transfers, reduction in workforce, recall, training, and education.
