TravelPerk has industry-leading travel inventory alongside powerful management features, 24/7 customer support, state-of-the-art technology, and consumer-grade design.

Founded in 2015 and headquartered in Barcelona, we’ve grown to over 1,800 people across Europe and North America.

The Role

We’re looking for a motivated Sales Professional with an affinity for people management to step into the SDR Team Lead role for the UKI region in our Sales team in Barcelona. You’ll coach and support a team of 8 outbound SDRs, helping them develop their skills, generate pipeline, and hit their targets. You’ll partner closely with the SDR Manager and Head of Sales Development to shape strategies, improve processes, and ensure the team’s success directly contributes to TravelPerk’s growth.

What will you be doing?

  • 👥 Lead and support a team of up to 8 Outbound SDRs, running weekly 1:1s, setting development goals, and reviewing performance.
  • 🎯 Coach & mentor,  focus on continuous skill development, identify training needs, and support new hires during onboarding.
  • 📚 Enable growth, design and deliver engaging training (role-plays, pitch simulations, gamification) and share best practices across the team.
  • 💡 Be the expert, master TravelPerk’s products and confidently guide your team in delivering value to prospects.
  • 🤝 Collaborate, partner with SDR Managers and internal stakeholders to create playbooks, scripts, and materials that drive results.
  •  🔄 Drive operational excellence by improving processes, ensuring data accuracy, and fostering efficiency across the SDR function.
  •  📈 Drive new prospecting techniques to further outbound pipeline generation and support innovation in lead generation.
  • 🗣️ Foster cross-functional communication with Sales, aligning on goals, feedback, and strategies to maximize impact.

What will you need to succeed?

  • You have extensive experience in outbound sales/sales development and have successfully managed the full sales cycle from prospecting and lead generation through to opportunity creation and closing.
  • Business fluency in English and/or working knowledge of the business culture in the UK and Ireland. 
  • 📚 You are passionate about coaching and developing junior talent. You experiment, adapt, and grow, and you inspire your team to do the same through hands-on guidance and training. Although existing leadership experience is a plus, for this role we accept Sales Executives who want to step into management. Strong examples for coaching and mentoring of junior team members are a must have.
  • 💬 You’re a clear communicator. You can break down complex ideas into simple, actionable steps and write concise messages that get straight to the point.
  • 👂 You’re a great listener. You take the time to understand your team, picking up on the nuance that helps drive better conversations and coaching.
  • 🗂️ You’re organised and focused. You know where to prioritise your energy to maximise results, for yourself and your team, and you don’t shy away from putting in the extra effort.
  • 📝 You’re detail-oriented. You take pride in operational excellence, from accurate CRM updates to preparing your team for success.
  • 🖥️ You embrace tools and technology. You leverage systems to drive productivity and are always curious about smarter, more efficient ways of working.

What it’s like to work at TravelPerk

  • We build a product that makes a real difference, because selling something great is the best way to win customers.
  • We put people first in every interaction, leading with empathy and expertise.
  • Small, talented teams can achieve big things. That’s why we hire the best, give them the right environment, and reward them fairly.

  • 💰 Competitive compensation, including equity in the company.
  • 🌴 Generous vacation days so you can rest and recharge.
  • 💊 Health perks such as private healthcare or gym allowance, depending on location.

  • 🫶 VolunteerPerk - We offer 16 paid hours per year that you can use to give back to society by volunteering for a charity of your choice.
  • 🌎 "Work from anywhere" in the world, allowance of 20 working days per year.
  • 📚 IRL English and Spanish Lessons are held in the Barcelona office.

How We Work
Our Vision is for a world where TravelPerk is the platform for human connection in real life (IRL). We take an IRL-first approach to work, where our team works together in person 3 days a week. For roles in Customer Care, this can be up to 5 days per week in the office. As such, this role requires you to be within commuting distance of our hubs. We fundamentally believe in meeting in real life to improve connectivity, productivity, and creativity, ultimately making us a great workplace.

At TravelPerk, we prioritise experience and potential over academic qualifications for this role. Talent and ability aren't always reflected in formal credentials.

TravelPerk is a global company with a diverse customer base, and we want to ensure that the people behind our product reflect that. We're an equal opportunity employer, meaning you're welcome at TravelPerk regardless of your appearance, where you're from, or anything else that makes you.

Protect Yourself from Recruitment Scams
All official communication from TravelPerk will always come from email addresses ending in @travelperk.com, our verified social media channels, or recruiters listed on our official LinkedIn page. We will never ask you to pay for equipment, training, or fees, request sensitive personal information such as bank details early in the process, or communicate through unofficial apps like WhatsApp, Telegram, or Signal. If you receive a message claiming to be from TravelPerk that seems suspicious, please do not respond. Forward it to [email protected] and we’ll confirm whether it’s legitimate.
