About the role
As Manager, Business Development for our Boutique team, you'll lead a hybrid group of business development representatives across Birmingham and the Philippines, all focused on bringing Zen Planner to boutique gyms, martial arts studios, and fitness businesses. You'll carry your own pipeline goal while coaching your team to hit theirs, splitting your time between prospecting and developing the people around you. This role is right for someone who wants to keep selling and start leading, and who's energized by building a team from the ground up across two continents.

What you'll do
  • Own a personal pipeline goal alongside your team's targets, prospecting boutique gym owners and studio operators through calls, email, SMS, and social outreach
  • Build and run the outbound playbook for the Boutique division, including messaging, sequencing, and objection handling
  • Lead hiring for both the Birmingham and Philippines teams, then coach reps through live call reviews, 1:1s, and daily performance check-ins
  • Set the team up to win across time zones, coordinating schedules so outreach lands during peak hours for US prospects
  • Partner with account executives and marketing to sharpen lead quality, demo conversion, and campaign alignment
  • Keep Salesforce and your sales engagement platform clean and current, using the data to spot trends and coach proactively
  • Report on team performance and market insights directly to the VP of Sales

What you'll bring
  • 3–5 years of outbound sales development or business development experience in B2B SaaS
  • A track record of hitting outbound pipeline or quota targets
  • Experience with Salesforce and at least one sales engagement platform (Outreach, Salesloft, Apollo, or similar)
  • Comfort operating as both an individual contributor and a people leader at the same time
  • Strong consultative communication skills, with the ability to build rapport with small-business owners quickly

Nice to have
  • People management experience leading a BDR, SDR, or inside sales team
  • Experience selling into fitness, wellness, or boutique gym verticals
  • Experience managing or partnering with an offshore or international team
  • Familiarity with fitness management platforms like Exercise.com, Wodify, Mindbody, or ABC Fitness/Glofox
