About this Role
We are looking for a Business Development Representative with 0, 1 year of experience to help build Basis's outbound sales motion from the ground up. This is a founding BDR role at a unicorn-status AI startup, you won't be handed a playbook, you'll be writing it. If you're early in your career, hungry to grind, and want a clear path into closing or leadership, this is the role for you.
What you need
- 0, 1 year of sales or outbound experience; no more than 1 year, new grads and career pivoters welcome
- Proven grit and hustle: background in competitive athletics, IB/PE, high-growth startups, consulting clubs, or similar high-intensity environments
- Fully in-person in NYC (Flatiron), 5 days a week, non-negotiable
- High-agency mindset: comfortable operating without a defined playbook and building from first principles
- Strong communicator, writes clearly, handles pushback, and can think on their feet
What will you be doing?
Cold calling, sending outbound emails, and experimenting with messaging to book meetings with CFOs, controllers, and finance leaders
Building the outbound playbook from scratch, testing channels and approaches, then systematizing what works for the team behind you
Researching and prioritizing target accounts, building targeting logic (not just lists)
Partnering closely with Account Executives to convert outreach into qualified pipeline
Feeding market intel, objections, competitors, pain points, back into the business to shape positioning and strategy
