Sales Development Representative

MongoDB’s mission is to empower innovators to create, transform, and disrupt industries by unleashing the power of software and data. We enable organizations of all sizes to easily build, scale, and run modern applications by helping them modernize legacy workloads, embrace innovation, and unleash AI. Our industry-leading developer data platform, MongoDB Atlas, is the only globally distributed, multi-cloud database and is available in more than 115 regions across AWS, Google Cloud, and Microsoft Azure. Atlas allows customers to build anywhere—on the edge, on premises, or across cloud providers. With offices worldwide and over 175,000 developers joining MongoDB every month, it’s no wonder that leading organizations, like Samsung and Toyota, trust MongoDB to build next-generation, AI-powered applications.

At MongoDB, our Sales Development organisation works closely with our partners in both Sales and Marketing to build fanatical customer enthusiasm around MongoDB. Growth Development Representatives (GDRs) are responsible for identifying and qualifying new opportunities for our Enterprise and Corporate sales organisations.

We view our Sales Development program as the best way to turbocharge a long and successful career in sales and view our Growth Development Representatives as the next wave of Account Executives at MongoDB. Learn more about life on the MongoDB Sales Development Team here.

We are looking to speak to candidates who are based in Sydney for our hybrid working model.

The Opportunity

Being a GDR is often a first step to jump-starting a career in sales. At MongoDB, we have a culture that celebrates diversity, fosters growth and enablement, and ensures that we provide our GDRs with the tools and the confidence that they need to grow their careers. We invest heavily in the training and development of our team. You will always have the support from our sales enablement org and managers that will maintain 1:1 coaching throughout your career here.

Our GDRs gain an understanding of our product, community, who we sell to, why they care, and what makes us relevant. They learn how to generate a pipeline quickly and effectively as well as how to achieve a good discovery and qualification. The team is a crucial resource for sales teams across MongoDB to get great talent from. This helps us scale our teams, as well as ensure that we have a culture of meritocracy.
