We treat our candidates with dignity, coach them up, and help them take their careers to the next level. If you are looking for an opportunity to deploy capitalism for the greater good, look no further. Help us humanize the hiring process for individuals nationwide!

What role does the Business Development Representative play? 

The Business Development Representative (BDR) role is a key position for our young but growing firm. We are looking for a creative, optimistic, and hungry sales professional who treats the sales process as code to be cracked. Percy’s BDR will own a nationwide territory and work to build relationships with executives across all industries and geographies through thoughtful and targeted outreach and prospecting. Their ultimate goal will be to dramatically increase our market share of the US staffing industry.  

At Percy, you will be anything but a cog in a machine. You will be encouraged to run experiments and deploy novel thinking as we refine our entrepreneurial sales process.

If you are looking for a sales environment that balances autonomy and support while providing massive upside, you are looking in the right place with Percy. 

We want to talk to you if: 

• Love the vision of our business 

• Are ready to put in a lot of work 

• Are a “people person” able to empathize with a wide range of people 

• Ability to independently develop and execute sales campaign strategies 

• Organized and efficient approach towards day-to-day work 

• Are excited to learn new skills and are comfortable taking on a wide array of responsibilities 

• Genuine interest in gaining experience in a growth-stage start-up (less than 10 employees)

How about career development? 

Percy’s BDR will benefit from working directly with the CEO on sales strategy and execution, and they will have the opportunity for direct mentorship from our board members. The BDR will be involved with all aspects of the sales cycle, from lead generation and prospecting through contract negotiation and kickoff calls.  

The smaller nature of our team will provide the BDR with a uniquely broad lens and enable them a clear pathway to greater responsibility. Work with the CEO to refine our sales process as you execute, and then help hire the team who will bring your vision to life as we scale. Over time, your success will pave a clear pathway for increased responsibility.

Who is the ideal candidate? 

We’re looking for an entrepreneurial spirit who can be readily described as sharp, driven, and resilient. Our ideal candidate understands that entrepreneurial selling requires a unique mix of grit, storytelling, and creativity. 

If you’re “one of us”, you relish the opportunity to roll up your sleeves and do the work, whatever it may be. Our team is bonded by a deep commitment to our mission, a drive to grow the business, and a desire to be around other smart, kind, and funny professionals who like being themselves while at the office.
