Founding SDR, US (New York City)

Founding SDR, US (New York City)

Chapter 2 is not just about embedding talent teams; we are building the future of talent acquisition. Our model integrates embedded recruiting, an employer brand agency, and our proprietary AI SaaS platform, The Book. We have recently entered the US market from our base in New York City, and we are growing quickly. Our clients span venture-backed startups, high-growth scale-ups, and global enterprises. We turn talent strategy into a decisive competitive advantage.

The Role

This is a New York-based, hybrid role at the sharp end of our US expansion. You will be an elite operator who opens doors, qualifies opportunities, and books meetings with potential customers across NYC and the wider US. You will then work directly with our Co-Founder to shape proposals and close deals. Think growth hacker: resourceful, experimental, and fast. This is one of the first roles in a US-wide growth team, with a rare chance to help design the go-to-market and define what "great" looks like. You will run experiments, learn quickly from mistakes, and scale what works.

What You Will Do

• Develop and execute a New York-focused growth plan, then extend winning plays across other US hubs.
• Build a pipeline through creative outbound, events, community, partnerships, and targeted ABM.
• Qualify prospects, secure first meetings, and progress opportunities with a crisp, insight-led narrative.
• Work hand-in-hand with the Co-Founder to lead commercial discussions, craft compelling proposals, and close.
• Analyse the market to spot trends, surface signals, and pivot tactics quickly to capture emerging demand.
• Collaborate with Talent, Product, and Leadership so delivery is seamless and expectations are exceeded.
• Capture learnings, codify repeatable playbooks, and help hire and mentor the next wave of US growth talent.

You Bring

3+ years in business development, account management, or consulting in high-pace settings (ideally tech, talent, SaaS, or professional services).

High agency. You remove obstacles, influence stakeholders, and find a way.

High resilience. You know winning is probabilistic, and you bounce back stronger.

Deep thinking and rapid execution. You reflect, strategize, then act fast. Ownership and a relentless drive to exceed goals. Speed is how we win.

Exceptional communication. Clear, concise, and persuasive storytelling.

Curiosity and analytical rigour. You test, learn, and iterate quickly.

Fluency in English. Other languages are a plus.
