Sales Development Representative - London

📋 Description

• • Join Flagright, a rapidly growing, AI-native company at the forefront of financial crime prevention. We are seeking a motivated and driven Sales Development Representative (SDR) to play a pivotal role in expanding our market presence across Europe and the Middle East. As an SDR at Flagright, you will be instrumental in generating qualified sales pipeline by identifying, engaging, and nurturing relationships with key decision-makers within fintechs and banks. This is an exceptional opportunity to accelerate your sales career in a high-growth startup environment, working with a product that is loved by customers and delivers tangible value.
• • Flagright is a leader in AML compliance and fraud prevention, serving a global clientele across six continents. Our cutting-edge platform empowers financial institutions to detect and prevent money laundering and fraud in real-time. We are proud to be backed by Y Combinator, recognized as a top-rated solution on G2 for transaction monitoring, and experiencing significant growth. Our platform stands out for its intuitive design and effectiveness, making it the preferred choice for Fortune 500 companies, large banks, and agile startups alike. You will be selling a solution that genuinely solves critical problems for our clients, contributing to a mission that matters: protecting the global financial system from illicit activities. Every new customer we onboard strengthens the world's defenses against financial crime.
• • In this dynamic role, your primary responsibility will be to generate a robust sales pipeline for the European and Middle Eastern markets. This involves a proactive and strategic approach to identifying potential clients, understanding their unique challenges, and initiating meaningful conversations. Your day-to-day activities will include a blend of outbound prospecting, including cold calls and highly personalized email outreach, coupled with in-depth research into prospective companies and their stakeholders. The ultimate goal is to secure qualified meetings and opportunities for our senior sales team, enabling them to close deals and drive revenue growth.
• • This is not a typical corporate role; it's an immersive experience within a fast-paced, high-growth startup. You will collaborate closely with a diverse, global team, often working across different time zones. A significant advantage of this position is the direct access you'll have to the company's founders, providing unparalleled insight into strategic decision-making and the opportunity to influence our go-to-market strategies. We provide a well-established playbook designed to facilitate rapid learning, quick ramp-up, and sustained success in the SDR role. While we offer structure and support, we also expect a high degree of autonomy and resilience.
• • Success in this role requires a tenacious and proactive mindset. You will encounter rejection frequently, and your ability to persevere, learn from each interaction, and maintain a positive outlook will be crucial. We are looking for individuals who can demonstrate agility and a willingness to go the extra mile when business demands it, rather than those who adhere strictly to rigid 9-to-5 boundaries. This role is ideal for ambitious individuals eager to build a strong foundation in sales, with a clear path for career progression. Flagright offers a well-defined career trajectory, with opportunities to advance from junior to senior SDR positions and potentially into leadership roles for those who consistently exceed expectations.
• • At Flagright, we foster an environment where individuals who are resilient, resourceful, and passionate can thrive. We value team members who can bounce back from setbacks, creatively solve problems with the resources at hand, and articulate their ideas with conviction. We seek individuals who are eager to learn rapidly, driven by a hunger for knowledge and success, and who appreciate working alongside no-nonsense professionals dedicated to building something impactful. Conversely, individuals who require constant supervision, perceive high expectations as unreasonable, prioritize work-life balance over performance, or struggle with ambiguity and rejection may find this environment challenging.
• • Joining Flagright means embarking on a steep learning curve, gaining exposure to the inner workings of a successful early-stage company, and contributing to a mission that has a profound positive impact. You will be part of a small, dedicated, and globally distributed team, united by a shared drive for success and a commitment to fighting financial crime. This is your chance to make a real difference while building a rewarding career in sales.
