Director of Sales Development

ApartmentIQ
Madison, WI Full Time
POSTED ON 4/4/2026
AVAILABLE BEFORE 4/19/2026
We're Changing the PropTech Industry

We're a profitable, growth-stage company building industry-leading martech and data products for the PropTech space. Our focus is on our category-leading AI and data SaaS products with triple-digit growth rates.

We're a fully remote team of 100 spread across the U.S. from coast to coast. We operate on a strict no a**holes policy and are proud to have built a community of highly performant people that take our work seriously, but not ourselves. And, we're looking for exceptional people to help further accelerate our growth.

While we've raised $30MM to date from some of the world's best investors, we're profitable with a strong balance sheet and an indefinite runway. We pride ourselves on achieving rapid growth without having to incinerate capital.

About Our Products

ApartmentIQ is the all-in-one data platform powering smarter decisions across multifamily - covering 40M units with daily property and market intelligence used for surveys, research, and revenue management. We're trusted by 65% of the NMHC Top 50. Our sister company, MavenAI, delivers AI-powered marketing automation built by industry experts and integrated directly with property management systems, serving over 2M units.

The Role

We are looking for a strategic and high-energy Director of Sales Development to lead, scale, and transform our SDR organization. You aren't just a manager of managers; you are a pipeline architect. You will sit at the critical intersection of Marketing, Sales, and RevOps, ensuring our outbound engine is sophisticated, our inbound response is lightning-fast, and our talent pipeline is the strongest in the industry. Your mission is to continue to build and manage a top-tier "prospecting machine" that drives predictable, scalable revenue growth.

What You'll Do:

  • Strategy & Vision:
    • Define the roadmap for the Sales Development organization, aligning SDR targets with overall company revenue goals and departmental KPIs.
  • Leadership & Culture:
    • Lead and mentor a multi-layered team of Managers and Individual Contributors, fostering a culture of high accountability, continuous coaching, and professional development.
  • Process Optimization:
    • Design and implement cutting-edge prospecting methodologies, cadences, and playbooks to improve conversion rates from "cold lead" to "qualified opportunity."
  • Tech Stack Management:
    • Oversee and optimize our sales engagement stack (e.g., Salesforce, Salesloft, Gong, ZoomInfo, etc) to ensure maximum rep productivity.
  • Cross-Functional Partnership:
    • Work hand-in-hand with Marketing on lead-gen campaigns and with Account Executive leadership to ensure a seamless handoff and high "win rates" on SDR-generated meetings.
  • Data-Driven Analytics:
    • Track, analyze, and report on funnel metrics, from activity levels to pipeline contribution, providing actionable insights to the executive leadership team.
What We're Looking For:

  • Proven Track Record: 10 years of experience in Sales Development, with at least 4 years in a senior leadership role managing managers in a high-growth SaaS environment.
  • Pipeline Expertise: You have a deep understanding of both inbound and outbound prospecting strategies and a history of consistently hitting or exceeding pipeline targets.
  • The "Coach" Mentality: A passion for talent development. You take pride in promoting SDRs to become the next generation of top-performing Account Executives.
  • Operational Rigor: You are highly analytical and comfortable using data to tell a story, identify bottlenecks, and forecast future performance.
  • Exceptional Communication: The ability to influence stakeholders at the C-suite level while remaining approachable and inspiring to entry-level hires.
  • Adaptability: Experience navigating the complexities of a fast-scaling company, with the ability to pivot strategies as market conditions or product offerings evolve.

Why Choose Us:

  • Remote-First: We offer the freedom to work from home across most of the U.S. You'll enjoy the flexibility of remote work, balanced with high-energy in-person offsites to build real connections and celebrate our wins together.
  • Competitive Compensation: We believe in hiring the best and paying accordingly. You'll receive a competitive salary that reflects your impact and expertise.
  • Paid Time Off: Take the time you need with our flexible vacation policy and dedicated paid parental leave to support you and your family's biggest milestones.
  • Your Health Matters: Stay healthy with high-quality Medical, Dental, and Vision insurance plans for you and your family.
  • Peace of Mind (On Us): We fully invest in your security with 100% company-paid Short-Term Disability, Long-Term Disability, and Basic Life Insurance.
  • Protection for Your Whole Crew: Access supplemental insurance for the unexpected, plus specialized coverage to keep your pets happy and healthy, too.
  • Invest in Your Future: Secure your financial goals with our 401k Program, helping you build for the long term while you help us build the company.
