Your Role
This is an outbound-first pipeline development role. You will engage and qualify senior decision makers at building materials manufacturers across North America. You’ll run multi-channel campaigns across email, Linked In, phone, and in-person events. You’ll research accounts deeply to earn conversations and you’ll gather real insights from trade show floors.

This role is built for someone early in their career who wants to learn enterprise sales from the inside — working directly with the founding team, building the muscle to become a closing professional. Top performers will have a clear path to move into a full-cycle Account Executive role as Parq scales.

• Own outbound pipeline generation
• Run 50+ outbound touches per day across cold call, email, and Linked In
• Execute multi-channel sequences through Apollo, Clay, and La Growth Machine
• Research and personalize outreach to target accounts — not spray and pray
• Book 12+ qualified discovery meetings per month for the closing team

• Every meeting you book meets Parq's qualification bar: right persona, right company, real problem
• Ask the second question. Understand the org before you pitch the product
• Hand off meetings with context that makes the AE's job easier — not harder
• Log every touch and outcome in Attio with discipline. Pipeline hygiene is non-negotiable

• Attend 1-2 trade shows or industry events per month — this role travels 25-30%
• Canvas target accounts in-person at conferences, expos, and regional events across the country
• Work a booth, work a room, work a hallway conversation into a follow-up that converts
• Build relationships that open doors digital outreach alone never would

• Surface patterns from the field: what messaging resonates, what objections are new, what competitors are showing up
• Partner with the GTM team to refine targeting, sequences, and talk tracks based on real-world signal
• Deliver weekly pipeline reviews — account status, conversion patterns, and what’s moving

You dont need a background in manufacturing — curiosity about the industry goes a long way. You need energy, resilience, and the relational instinct that turns a cold call into a real relationship.

• 1-3 years of outbound sales development, BDR, or SDR experience in B2B SaaS or enterprise sales
• A track record of hitting or exceeding activity and meeting targets consistently
• Relational speed — you build rapport in 30 seconds. Strangers become conversations fast
• Rejection resilience — 100 nos for every yes, and your 101st call sounds as good as your first
• Curiosity over script — you ask the second question because you actually want to understand
• Digital fluency — comfortable running multi-channel sequences across email, Linked In, and phone without hand-holding
• Field presence — you work a trade show floor like you own it and come back with 30 business cards and 10…
