Description

Zendesk is redefining how the world delivers service. In addition to our world-class CX & service platform, we've built a $200m ARR AI business - the fastest-growing product line in our history - now used by more than 20,000 customers.

If you want to build a career in software sales on the bleeding edge of AI and technology, this is where you do it.

Our BDR team is the engine behind one of the world's fastest-growing regions. You'll be hunting into high-growth Enterprise accounts, opening doors at some of the most recognisable brands across Australia & New Zealand, and shaping how they adopt AI for customer experience.

You won't be scheduling meetings. You will be uncovering real pain, building value, and influencing multi-million-dollar deals from the very start.

This is a role for people who want to learn fast, think big, and build a serious career in tech sales.

Responsibilities

  • Engage exec-level prospects to understand where their CX, AI and Service gaps sit
  • Drive high-value pipeline through targeted outbound prospecting
  • Partner closely with Account Executives, Product and Marketing to run coordinated plays into priority accounts
  • Qualify opportunities with a consultative, value-led approach
  • Own and manage your pipeline with discipline, clarity and a premium customer experience
  • Be part of an onsite team (3 days a week in Melbourne) that learns, iterates and grows together

Requirements

  • 2+ years in a sales or business development role (SMB, Commercial or Enterprise)
  • A competitive, resilient, self-starting mindset
  • Curiosity for AI, SaaS and modern GTM motion
  • Clear, confident communication - written and verbal
  • A strong desire to build a long-term career in software sales
  • Bachelor's degree preferred

Benefits

  • Hybrid work arrangement (3 days onsite, 2 days remote)
  • Opportunity to work with cutting-edge AI technology
  • Collaborative and dynamic work environment
