Job

Simpro is seeking a highly strategic leader to own and scale the dual-engine pipeline strategy for Australia and New Zealand. In this role, you will lead a bifurcated team of Inbound BDRs and Outbound BDRs, ensuring each motion is optimized for its specific objectives.
You will be responsible for the end-to-end health of the top-of-funnel: driving high-velocity conversion for Marketing-generated leads and executing sophisticated, proactive prospecting against strategic accounts. This role is the critical link between Marketing demand generation and Sales revenue targets, ensuring every lead is maximized and every key account is targeted.

What You’ll Do

  • Bifurcated Management: Lead and develop two distinct workstreams (Inbound and Outbound), tailoring coaching, playbooks, and KPIs to the unique requirements of each role.

  • Coaching & Enablement: Establish a rigorous rhythm of business, including structured 1:1s, call coaching via Gong, and skills-based enablement (discovery for IB; personalization/multi-threading for OB).

  • Career Architecture: Build a robust talent pipeline, fostering growth for BDRs into ISR, AE, and leadership roles.

Inbound Motion: Funnel Velocity & Conversion

  • MQL Optimization: Own the MQL to SQL and MQL to Closed-Won (CW) conversion rates.

  • SLA Management: Ensure 100% adherence to "speed-to-lead" protocols and rigorous qualification standards to ensure high-quality handoffs to AEs.

  • Marketing Feedback Loop: Provide data-driven insights to the Marketing team to improve lead quality and downstream revenue efficiency.

Outbound Motion: Strategic Account Penetration

  • SQL Production: Drive high-quality pipeline through proactive prospecting against Strategic Accounts and Named Account lists.

  • Campaign-Specific Outbound: Partner with Marketing to execute targeted outbound "bursts" against specific campaigns, industry events, or product launches.

Operational Excellence & Strategy

  • Playbook Localization: Adapt global Outbound Center of Excellence (OBCOE) playbooks to include ANZ-specific nuances and inbound response frameworks.

  • Tech Stack Mastery: Ensure flawless execution within the tech stack, including Salesforce, 6sense, SalesLoft, Cognism, and Gong.

  • Reporting & Forecasting: Deliver accurate, forward-looking forecasts for both inbound and outbound pipeline contribution across the ANZ region.

Key Performance Indicators (KPIs)

  • Inbound Team: MQL to SQL % | MQL to Closed-Won % | Speed-to-Lead SLA

  • Outbound Team: SQL Production | Strategic Account Penetration | Campaign Conversion %

  • Leadership: Total Regional Pipeline Value | Forecast Accuracy | Team Attainment

  • Strategic Orchestration: AEs to coordinate "one-team" approaches for penetrating high-value targets.

What You’ll Bring

  • 5+ years of leadership experience in BDR/SDR environments, managing both inbound and outbound motions.

  • Conversion Expertise: Proven track record of optimizing funnel conversion rates (MQL to SQL/CW) and implementing account-based prospecting.

  • Strategic Mindset: Experience in multi-threaded outreach and targeting complex, high-value accounts.

  • Tech Fluency: High proficiency in Salesforce, 6sense (or similar intent tools), SalesLoft, and LinkedIn Navigator.

  • Communication: Exceptional ability to partner cross-functionally with Sales, Marketing, and RevOps leadership.

What We Can Offer You

  • Novated leasing via salary packaging

  • Employee Assistance Program (24/7 confidential support on relationships, bereavement, finances)

  • Generous Parental Leave Program

  • Paid Volunteer Leave Days

  • Public Holiday Exchange Scheme

  • Enjoy up to 4 weeks a year of flexible 'Work from Anywhere'!
