Are you ready to break into the fast-paced world of SaaS and build the foundation for a lucrative career in tech sales? We are looking for an ambitious, hungry, and strategic Business Development Representative (BDR) to join our APAC team. This isn't your typical "smile and dial" role. At Lucid, you are a strategic partner to our Account Executives, a master of regional territory planning, and the engine behind our expansion across the APAC market.

Responsibilities:

  • Strategic Partnership: Collaborate with Account Executives to map out territories and hunt down key accounts
  • The Outreach Mix: Master a multi-channel approach—utilizing cold calling, high-touch personalized emails, and LinkedIn social selling to spark curiosity
  • Become a Product Pro: Develop an expert-level understanding of the Lucid platform to solve real-world business problems for IT, Operations, and Engineering leaders
  • Master the Sales Cycle: You won't just pass leads; you’ll support discovery calls, assist in presentations, and as you grow, independently lead and close foundational transactions
  • Operational Excellence: Use a modern tech stack (Salesforce, Salesloft, ZoomInfo) to manage your pipeline with precision
  • Other assigned tasks

Requirements:

  • 6–12 months of sales or customer-facing experience where you’ve proven you can handle demand and hit targets
  • Communication mastery: You can write a compelling hook and hold your own in a conversation with a C-suite executive

  • Grit: You’re organized, adaptable, and motivated by the win
  • Hybrid Flexibility: Enjoy the energy of our Melbourne office two days a week (Tue/Thu) while maintaining work-life balance

Preferred Qualifications:

  • Previous experience in SaaS or tech/software
  • A proven track record of smashing quotas and/or generating high-quality pipeline
  • A degree (BA/BS) or equivalent experience that shows you can see projects through to the end
