Job Description :

Founding Business Development Executive

($25 / hr + commission)

Remote but residing in Austin, TX

ABOUT

Breadchaser is a sales recruiting company that helps AI companies build outbound sales teams & generate predictable revenue. Instead of relying on investors for cash, our typical clients are high-growth tech companies that want to prioritize real customers >

investors for their early-stage revenue.

We're different because we built our own Chrome extension (to help our candidates personalize job applications), so we aren't just sellers of technology - but we are builders, too.

We're located in east Austin, TX, and have partnered with a variety of disruptive companies - from Y Combinator-backed startups to larger INC 5000 organizations - to help them scale faster.

ROLE DESCRIPTION

Now, Breadchaser is looking to expand deeper into the Austin networking scene & become the #1 sales recruiting solution in Austin, TX.

We're seeking a proactive, organized, and personable Business Development Executive with one primary goal : book qualified meetings for our founder with new potential clients (i.e. fast-growing tech companies looking to hire SDRs and / or AEs).

This involves : (1) handling replies / inbound leads, (2) driving outbound follow-up campaigns, and (3) attending Austin-based networking events with our founder.

You'll be the engine behind our deal origination-identifying, engaging, and qualifying business owners / founders / sales leaders, then scheduling high-value conversations.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

• Qualify inbound and outbound leads to ensure fit as a qualified business for our specific ideal client criteria (winning product, niche success, wants to scale predictably to complement their marketing / ads / inbound), and then - if qualified - book meetings for the founder
• Manage relationships and update CRM (Pipedrive) with all outreach, notes, and follow-ups. You should have an intuitive understanding of the CRM and where the major opportunities are (active deals)
• Use our in-house tool to create 1-sheet proposals for specific potential new clients, so we can introduce qualified candidates and speed the time it takes to sign an agreement with a new client
• Support the founder in building and executing outbound lead generation campaigns (email, LinkedIn, etc.), track outreach metrics, and suggest improvements to increase appointment rates by refining the messaging, targeting, and campaign strategy - in collaboration with the founder
• Most important : Attend networking events in Austin with founder (remote work but must reside in Austin to attend 1-2 networking events per week)

WHO YOU ARE :

WHY JOIN US?

COMPENSATION

Hourly ($25 / hr) to start - with about 10 hours of work per week, which we can scale up as necessary. Plus, you earn a % of the deals that you land (up for negotiation, depending on your level of involvement - could be a significant % to properly incentivize A-players). Starts in June 2025.

SUMMARY

As a Founding Biz Dev Executive, you'll handle (1) replies / inbound leads, (2) drive outbound follow-up campaigns, and (3) attend 1-2 Austin-based networking events per week - in order to ultimately book qualified meetings for the founder. We are looking for someone excited to become an Austin networking legend & consistently attend networking events in Austin with our team.

If you're a proactive business development pro with a knack for building relationships in Austin and want to break into the AI world, let's have a conversation.
