Sales Development Representative
Job description
Join a Company That's Building What's Next
Peerless is a fast-growing engineering company headquartered right here in Buffalo, tackling some of the most interesting technical challenges in our industry — and our clients span the globe. This isn't just a seat to fill: we're looking for a motivated Sales Development Representative who wants real ownership over their pipeline, real earning potential, and a real path to grow with us.
If you enjoy connecting with people, get energy from turning a first conversation into a lasting relationship, and want to be part of a tight-knit, collaborative team that has your back — this opportunity is for you!
What You'll Do
- Open doors. Make outbound calls to cold and warm business contacts, and turn conversations into opportunities.
- Build your pipeline. Prospect strategically, follow up relentlessly (in a good way), and keep it organized in our CRM.
- Own the relationship. Partner with supplier contacts and our internal customer support team to deliver a seamless experience.
- Close the loop. Schedule and support web presentations, secure orders, and help hit team goals and metrics.
- Sharpen the tools. Help build lead lists and contribute to sales/marketing materials that make the whole team more effective.
· You're organized, self-directed, and genuinely enjoy the sales process — not just the close, but the chase. You communicate clearly, adapt on the fly, and don't get rattled by a "no." You pick up new tools and processes quickly, and you're excited by the idea of joining a growing company where your work has real impact and you can grow right along with it.
What You Bring
1–2 years of outbound or customer-facing sales experience (Inside Sales, Outbound Sales, and/or Lead Generation)
- A track record of prospecting, selling, and generating leads via outbound calls
- Experience working with sophisticated, high-level clients — technical industry experience is a plus, not required
- Comfort with CRM software and modern sales tech
- Strong verbal and written communication skills
- A resilient, adaptable, team-first mindset
- Competitive pay: $45,000–$50,000 base
- Growth-minded culture: ongoing training, development, and a clear path for advancement
- Real teamwork: a supportive, collaborative environment where your wins are celebrated
- Meaningful work: contribute to high-profile, global engineering projects
- Local roots, global reach: be part of a growing Buffalo-based company making an impact well beyond WNY
Competitive Benefits
- 401K & Profit Sharing
- Great Work Environment
- Health Insurance & Benefits
- Paid Vacation & Holidays
- Opportunities to Contribute to the Community & Charitable Causes
