Sales Development Representative (SDR)

About us

Flexa is the data-driven platform where people and companies find their match. We sit on over 3 billion data points on what people actually want from work, which gives employers a real-time read on the talent they're trying to reach - and helps people find verified companies where they'll do their best work.

Since we started in 2019, we've grown to 5 million users, we work with the likes of SAP, Mars, Airbus, Vodafone, ASOS, Tesco and Heineken, and we've become a trusted voice on the future of work for employers and talent alike. That growth shows no sign of slowing, and this role sits right at the front of it.

Why this isn't like every other "no experience" SDR job

Most SDR jobs hand you a script and a dialler and judge you on call volume. That's not this.

Flexa sells to senior people at companies, so spray-and-pray doesn't work. We want someone who treats prospecting as a craft:

• Researching a company until you understand what they're actually trying to fix, then leading with that

• Writing LinkedIn and email outreach a person would want to reply to - sharp, human, personalised

• Asking good questions, listening, and connecting Flexa to a real problem instead of just pitching at people

If you're the sort who rewrites the opening line three times until it's right, you'll fit in here.

What you'll actually do

• Research target companies and the people who run employer brand, talent acquisition and people teams - forming a point of view before you reach out

• Run thoughtful, multichannel outreach (LinkedIn-led, plus email) to start conversations with decision-makers

• Book and qualify meetings for our senior salespeople to take forward

• Learn to put Flexa's value clearly and tailor it to each prospect

• Test, learn and share what's working - your good ideas become the team's playbook

Who we're looking for

We hire on attitude and aptitude, not CV bullet points.

• Hungry - ambitious, self-driven, motivated by getting good at something hard

• A very strong writer - rigorous about grammar and syntax, and able to position Flexa is a compelling and relevant way

• Curious - you like digging into how businesses work and what makes people tick

• Creative - you'd rather find an angle no one else is using than copy the template

• Resilient and experimental - you take feedback well, bounce back from a no, and keep improving

A writing-heavy degree is a bonus, but not a requirement. 

Why Flexa

We're a small, fast-moving team that treats people like adults. That cuts both ways - real autonomy and ownership early, and real output expected in return.

• Remote-first across the UK, with one funded team day a month in London

• 4.5-day week - most weeks wrap at 2pm on Friday

• 36 days' annual leave plus bank holidays, plus your birthday off

• Work-from-anywhere scheme - up to 45 days working abroad

• Uncapped commission, share options and a work-from-home budget

• Output-based progression - no ceiling, no rigid ladder; you grow as fast as your impact does

Honest heads-up: we work fast and hard, which is exactly why we can offer this much flexibility. There aren't formal promotion frameworks - progression comes from being exceptional. You'll often work outside your job description and own your role end to end. For the right person it's the best environment going. It isn't for everyone, and that's fine.

We believe diversity makes us stronger, and we welcome applications from people of all backgrounds and circumstances. If you have specific needs or require adjustments at any stage, tell us what you need to do your best work.

What happens next, so you're not left guessing

We'll be reading applications for the next month, and we'll come back to everyone once that window closes. If you haven't heard from us in the first few weeks, nothing's gone wrong - we'd rather read every response properly than rush it.
