Team Lead BD Digital (SME) (m/f/x)

Team Lead BDR – SME & Mid-Market (m/f/x)

Department: Sales

Employment Type: Permanent - Full Time

Location: München

Description

We are hiring a Team Lead BDR for our Digital Team (SME/Mid-market) to lead and scale our BDR team focused on the SME/Mid-Market segment. You will own the team that opens conversations with SME/Mid-Market decision‑makers across our priority markets — building a pipeline machine that is fast, focused, and unmistakably AI‑native.

This is a hands‑on leadership role for someone who wants to define what modern, AI‑first outbound looks like in a high‑velocity SaaS scale‑up. You will inherit a foundational team, shape its operating model, and partner closely with Marketing, Sales, and RevOps to compress time‑to‑relevance with SME/Mid‑Market buyers.

Why this role matters: The SME/Mid‑Market segment is the engine room of compliance demand. Lean buying committees, short cycles, and pragmatic decision‑making mean the BDR motion is not a junior version of Enterprise — it is a discipline of its own. This role defines that discipline at osapiens.

What You'll Own

Team Leadership & Performance

• Lead, coach, and develop the BDR team for the Digital segment — from day‑to‑day enablement through to career progression.
• Own the team's pipeline contribution to SME/Mid‑Market revenue: meetings booked, qualified opportunities created, and conversion to closed‑won.
• Set the cadence — weekly forecasts, 1:1s, call reviews, ramp plans — and hold the bar on activity quality, not just quantity.
• Recruit, onboard, and retain top BDR talent; build a bench for internal promotion into AE and specialist roles.

AI‑Native Outbound Engine

• Design and continuously evolve an outbound motion built around AI agents, autonomous sequencing, and signal‑based prospecting — not template‑and‑pray cadences.
• Lead the team's adoption of AI tooling end‑to‑end: research, personalisation, intent monitoring, multi‑channel orchestration, and conversation intelligence.
• Partner with RevOps to instrument the funnel: define the metrics, dashboards, and feedback loops that make the AI‑native motion measurable and improvable.
• Stay ahead of the curve on emerging AI tools and tactics; pilot, measure, scale or kill — fast.

Cross‑Functional Partnership

• Co‑own the SME/Mid‑Market pipeline plan with Marketing — campaign alignment, ICP refinement, content needs, and lead routing.
• Partner tightly with Sales (AEs and Sales Leadership) to ensure handover quality and pipeline conversion are continuously improving.
• Feed market intelligence back into Product Marketing and Strategy: what SME/Mid‑Market buyers are actually saying, asking, and objecting to.

Strategy & Scale

• Build the playbook: ICP, messaging frameworks, qualification standards, and segment‑specific plays for the SME/Mid‑Market motion.
• Define the path from today's team to a multi‑pod, multi‑market BDR organisation — including the org design, tooling stack, and enablement system that makes scaling sustainable.

What You Bring

Non‑Negotiables

• AI‑native mindset and demonstrable experience. You don't talk about AI as a future trend — you have already rebuilt outbound motions around it. You can name the tools you use, the workflows you've automated, and the lift you have measured.
• 3–6 years in B2B SaaS sales development , with at least 1–2 years leading or managing a BDR/SDR team.
• Track record of building pipeline in the SME/Mid‑Market segment — you understand the buying logic, the speed, and the lean decision‑making that defines this space.
• Operational rigour. Comfortable with funnel maths, attribution, and forecast accuracy — you manage by data, not by vibes.
• Fluent in English. Strongly preferred German, Spanish, Italian, French or Dutch.

How You Operate

• Bias to action. You ship, measure, and iterate — weekly, not quarterly.
• Coach first, manager second. You build people; the metrics follow.
• High energy, low ego.

What We Offer

• A pivotal leadership role in the team building osapiens' SME/Mid‑Market growth engine.
• Direct line of sight to senior commercial leadership — your work is visible at the top.
• A genuinely AI‑first commercial culture, autonomy, and mandate to build the outbound motion of the next decade.
• Competitive package including OTE and a category‑defining product in a market with strong regulatory tailwinds.
