At CADDi, we are scaling fast, and our Business Development team is the tip of the spear in our mission to unleash the potential of manufacturing. We are seeking a highly driven, hands-on Business Development Director to lead strategy and develop our next generation of quota-crushing sales talent.

What your days will look like:

• Own Pipeline Generation and Strategy: Drive net-new qualified pipeline for the sales organization, ensuring the BDR team consistently meets or exceeds weekly, monthly, and quarterly pipeline goals. Proactively monitor funnel metrics, lead quality, and territory coverage to maximize efficiency and optimize conversion rates.

Champion rigorous lead qualification frameworks (e.g., MEDDPICC, BANT, or custom methodologies). Utilize data and CRM reports to accurately forecast pipeline production and identify areas for improvement.
• Cross-Functional Collaboration: Partner closely with Sales, Marketing, and Revenue Operations (RevOps) to optimize handoffs, enhance nurture programs, and refine lead scoring methodologies. Share front-line prospect insights and market feedback to continuously refine our Ideal Customer Profile (ICP) and messaging strategies.
