Requirements
  • Minimum of a bachelor’s degree, with preference for a degree in STEM.
  • This is mid-level position. The ideal candidate will have 5+ years of prior experience in business development or sales for a highly technical product (i.e. enterprise software), ideally in a lead generation or SDR-like role.
  • Proven track record of meeting and exceeding goals and quotas.
  • Hunger, curiosity, and motivation to learn about and solve data problems for clients with the rest of the Ganymede team and grow our business
  • Integrity, ability to self-start, creativity, and compassionate courage when faced with adversity
  • Excellent oral and written communication skills
  • Willingness and interest to travel as needed to client sites and conferences across the country. Ability to travel 20-30% time required.
  • Desire to advance the health and welfare of people
Responsibilities
  • Your ultimate responsibility will be to drive the overall volume of lead generation of the company.
  • As the Business Development team manager, you’ll apply your background to help structure our lead generation process and business development team itself, including advising and mentoring more junior SDRs and BDAs (Business Development Associates). Since you’ll be the first manager of the team in a rapidly growing environment, this will be a very high-impact approach.
  • You’ll become an expert at recognizing who our platform can help and why, evangelizing the benefits of well-designed software in biotech, and enabling us to grow. As part of this effort you will need to travel to conferences and client sites to build in-person relationships and deeply understand scientists’ workflows.
  • You’ll also play an important role in our marketing, helping to ideate and push on our marketing strategy to further accelerate lead generation.
  • About half your time will be spent on individual work such as cold outbound and inside sales lead generation. You’ll have to strategize and execute on efforts tied into marketing such as webinars and live events, carefully source clients and build profiles of the market, and work with the account executive team to qualify and hand over leads.

  • Rapid growth and recent funding may lead to scaling challenges, including maintaining platform stability and customer support quality.
