A Quick Snapshot…

The primary responsibility of this role is to manage and coordinate the tactical and strategic direction of sales development representatives engaged in promoting Conga solutions. You will work with other sales leaders and marketing to define & build client-tailored messaging.

Why it’s a big deal…

Our pipeline is our lifeline.

In this role, you’ll have the opportunity—and autonomy—to innovate how Conga sells, while scaling a high-performing Sales Development organization that fuels long-term revenue growth. Your leadership directly impacts pipeline health, sales efficiency, and how Conga engages prospective customers across EMEA.

Sales Development Leadership & Execution

You’ll lead, coach, and develop a team of SDRs focused on generating qualified pipeline for Conga’s Sales organization. You’ll ensure consistent execution against goals while modeling Conga best practices and methodologies.

This includes:

  • Managing a team of SDRs selling Conga solutions

  • Achieving pipeline creation at or above stated quota and performance goals

  • Adhering to Conga sales methodologies, processes, and best practices

  • Continuously upgrading sales techniques and procedures based on performance insights and modern selling approaches

  • Monitoring, supporting, and coaching BDRs and SDRs across cold calling, prospecting, follow-up activities, and meeting booking

Software Sales & Pipeline Management. You bring deep experience in software sales environments and understand what it takes to build and scale predictable pipeline. You are comfortable owning pipeline health through territory planning, forecasting, and process optimization, and you know how to translate activity into measurable results.

Leadership, Communication & Collaboration. You are a clear, deliberate, and collaborative communicator. You actively participate in—and often initiate—cross-functional discussions, communicate with clarity and confidence in both written and verbal settings, and engage effectively with senior leaders and C-level executives. Your presentation and listening skills enable alignment and momentum across teams.

Adaptability & Mindset. You thrive in fast-paced, continuously evolving environments and are comfortable leading through change. You balance structure with flexibility and know how to adjust quickly as priorities shift.

Passion. We know it when we see it. Passion isn’t about saying how much you love what you do—it’s reflected in what you’ve accomplished, how you think, and how you show up. It’s demonstrated through your ideas, your philosophies, and your actions. You believe in what you do, where you work, and the impact you’re making—and that matters.

Related experience. Strong background in business development, including aggressive cold and warm calling, prospecting, and pipeline creation

  • 5+ years of experience in software sales, including hands-on experience cold calling and building pipeline within a SaaS organization

  • 5+ years of experience managing, coaching, and mentoring sales development or lead generation teams

  • Experience managing pipelines, territories, forecasting, and sales development processes

Here’s what will give you an edge…

Industry expertise. Experience in enterprise software is a strong advantage. Familiarity with pricing optimization, CPQ, CLM, and/or the Salesforce platform will allow you to ramp quickly and make an immediate impact.
