What are the responsibilities and job description for the Business Development Representative position at ComplyAdvantage?
Start your tech sales career with people who actually want to teach you.
We’re hiring early-career folks who are curious, coachable, and ready to learn how modern enterprise sales really works. You don’t need a sales background — you need to be sharp, willing to pick up the phone, and excited to build something. We’ll handle the rest.
The role, in plain terms
You’ll be the first person from ComplyAdvantage that a potential customer talks to. That means researching companies, figuring out who the right person to reach is, and then actually reaching out — by phone, email, LinkedIn, or in person at industry events — to book a meeting with one of our account executives. It’s the front door of the sales process, and it matters.
It’s also the role where most great enterprise sales careers begin.
What Your Day Looks Like
You’ll spend your time researching accounts and forming a real point of view on what’s happening in their world, then reaching out to senior decision-makers at companies. You’ll work inbound leads that come in, dig into what those prospects actually need, and prep meetings so your account executives walk in ready. You’ll join industry events, build a personal brand on LinkedIn, and get smarter about financial crime, compliance, and regtech every single week.
What We’ll Teach You
We’ve built a Go-To-Market team that takes training seriously — not as a one-week onboarding then sink-or-swim, but as an ongoing thing. You’ll learn a structured sales playbook that’s been refined over years, get coaching from experienced reps and managers, and build genuine expertise in a complex, interesting industry. The BDRs who do well here move into Account Executive, Customer Success, Marketing, and Operations roles. We want this to be your launchpad.
You might be a great fit if
You’re naturally curious and like understanding how things work. You’re not afraid to start a conversation with someone senior — or you’re willing to get comfortable with it. You take feedback well and actually apply it. You want to be good at something hard, and you’re patient enough to put in the reps. A background in sales isn’t required — strong candidates have come from hospitality, retail, campus leadership, athletics, customer service, internships, and plenty of other places.
Basic Qualifications
If you’ve read this far and something in it clicked, apply. We’d rather hear from someone who’s curious and a little nervous than someone who’s perfectly polished.
The base salary range for this role is $60,000 to $67,000 commission, equity, and US benefits. The actual pay may vary based on factors such as location, experience, and skills.
