Job description

This is a remote position.

Summary of the Role:
As the Business Development Associate, you will spearhead the identification and qualification of new business opportunities, focusing on enterprise-level law firms, corporate legal teams, and similar markets. You’ll collaborate closely with both marketing and sales teams to maintain a robust pipeline of high-quality leads. This role requires a proactive, strategic, and results-focused professional with a proven track record in B2B SaaS—preferably in AI or Legal Tech. Experience with Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) solutions is a major plus.

What you will do:

Lead Generation & Prospecting
  • Identify high-potential prospects within target sectors, especially mid-sized to enterprise-level legal departments and law firms.
  • Engage prospective customers via multi-channel outreach (calls, emails, social platforms, etc.), consistently following up to nurture interest.
  • Leverage your knowledge of AI and legal technology trends to tailor your outreach and demonstrate value.
Pipeline Management
  • Qualify and evaluate incoming leads, assessing product fit, budget potential, and decision-making authority.
  • Accurately document all interactions, insights, and lead status updates in the CRM (Salesforce, HubSpot, or equivalent).
  • Collaborate with Sales Managers and Account Executives to ensure a seamless hand off qualified leads.
Product & Industry Expertise
  • Develop comprehensive knowledge of our Generative AI solutions, focusing on how they address common legal pain points, including contract management.
  • Stay updated on market shifts, competitive products, and best practices in legal tech to position our solution effectively.
  • Educate prospects on the benefits of integrating AI-driven tools, particularly around CLM (if relevant to their needs).
Cross-Functional Collaboration
  • Provide feedback to the marketing team to refine campaigns and targeting strategies based on prospect interactions.
  • Work closely with product teams to stay informed on feature updates and roadmap items, ensuring accurate prospect communication.
  • Share market insights and emerging trends that can influence product development or sales strategies.
Performance & Reporting
  • Consistently meet or surpass monthly targets (e.g., calls made, emails sent, demos booked, leads qualified).
  • Prepare and present regular SDR metric reports (conversion rates, pipeline velocity, etc.) for leadership.
  • Continuously optimize outreach strategies to enhance lead quality and increase the overall sales pipeline.

What you bring: 
  • Bachelor’s degree in Business, Marketing, Communications, or a related discipline—or equivalent work experience.
  • 3-5+ years in an SDR or inside sales role within B2B SaaS, AI, or Legal Tech; proven success in driving pipeline growth.
  • Demonstrated proficiency in Salesforce, HubSpot, or similar CRM tools.
  • Exceptional verbal and written communication abilities, with the skill to simplify complex concepts.
  • Comfortable discussing AI-driven solutions; able to integrate technical understanding into prospect conversations.
  • History of working autonomously while managing multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment.
