Every great business has a great sales engine. And every great sales engine starts somewhere.

Behind every successful sales team is a group of people who create opportunities, start conversations, build relationships and bring potential customers to the table. They are called Sales Development Representatives (SDRs).

Sales is one of the most fundamental skills anyone can learn, regardless of where they eventually want to go in their career. Whether you aspire to lead a business, build a startup, manage teams or become an entrepreneur, understanding how to sell is an invaluable skill.

At DaanVeda, we believe in building people just as much as we believe in building products. And we're looking for someone who wants to learn the art and science of sales by actually doing it.

What Will You Be Doing?

This isn't a role where you'll just observe how a sales team operates. You'll be right at the centre of it.

Your primary responsibility will be to generate qualified sales opportunities and get prospective customers into conversations with our senior sales team.

Your day-to-day responsibilities will include:

- Prospecting:



Identify and research potential nonprofit customers through LinkedIn, Google and DaanVeda's internal databases.
- Lead Generation: Build, maintain and enrich high-quality prospect lists.
- Cold Calling: Make daily outbound calls to prospective customers, introduce DaanVeda and initiate meaningful sales conversations.
- Demo Booking: Convert conversations into qualified product demonstrations for the sales team.
- CRM Management: Maintain accurate lead records, call outcomes, follow-ups and prospect information in our CRM.
- Follow-ups: Consistently follow up with prospects and ensure no promising opportunity falls through the cracks.
- Process Discipline: Follow established calling frameworks, outreach processes and daily targets while continuously improving your approach.

Who Are We Looking For?

We aren't necessarily looking for someone with the fanciest resume. We're looking for someone who knows what it takes to get things done.

You might be a great fit if:

- You have prior experience in telecalling, cold calling, inside sales, business development or lead generation.
- You are comfortable making a high volume of outbound calls every single working day.
- You don't get discouraged by rejection and can confidently initiate conversations with strangers.
- You can independently research prospects, identify opportunities and take ownership of your pipeline.
- You are disciplined enough to follow a process consistently rather than waiting for motivation to get things done.
- You communicate confidently in English.
- You are comfortable working with targets,



daily reporting and performance metrics.
- You have a reliable internet connection and phone setup for remote work.

Prior experience in an SDR, telecalling or inside sales role is strongly preferred. What Makes This Opportunity Different?

1. You learn a skill that stays with you for life.

Sales is not just about making calls. It's about understanding people, communicating value, handling objections, negotiating and creating opportunities.

2. You grow at the pace you perform.

We are a startup. We move fast, experiment, take ownership and give people the opportunity to grow beyond their initial roles. Strong performers can earn greater responsibilities and opportunities to progress into larger sales and growth roles.

3. You get to work directly with a growing sales team.

You'll learn how a B2B SaaS sales engine operates, from prospecting and lead qualification to pipeline management and conversions.

4. You build the discipline that drives results.

We believe great salespeople aren't built by doing something extraordinary once in a while. They are built by doing the fundamentals exceptionally well, every single day.

We value consistency, ownership, curiosity and a willingness to improve.

What Success Looks Like

At the end of the day, this role is about outcomes.

- Consistently meeting daily outbound calling targets.
- Generating qualified leads and meaningful sales conversations.
- Booking quality product demonstrations.
- Maintaining strong CRM hygiene and follow-up discipline.
- Improving conversion rates through feedback, practice and iteration.
- Taking ownership of your numbers and contributing to the team's overall revenue goals.

DaanVeda is an equal chance employer. We are committed to building an inclusive workplace where individuals from diverse backgrounds are valued and respected
