What we do?

Paddle offers digital product companies a completely different approach to their payment infrastructure. Instead of assembling and maintaining a complex stack of payments-related apps and services, we’re a Merchant of Record for our customers. That means we take away 100% of the pain of payment fragmentation. It’s faster, safer, cheaper, and, above all, way better.

We’re backed by investors including KKR, FTV Capital, Kindred, Notion, and 83North and serve over 6000 software sellers in 245 territories globally.

The Role

We are looking for a smart, ambitious, and autonomous Business Development Representative to help fuel our next stage of hyper-growth. This is an exciting time for you to join the team: our customer base is expanding globally, our product is evolving fast, and our sales engine is scaling like never before.

As a BDR in our Business Development team, you will be the first point of contact for all of Paddle’s sales efforts. You’ll create demand, spark meaningful conversations, and build early relationships that turn into qualified pipeline to arm your counterparts on the Account Executive team. Your core tasks will involve researching, prospecting, prioritizing accounts, educating prospects, and converting interest into high-quality meetings.

This role places you at the centre of a high-performing GTM function. We take career development seriously. Once you consistently hit quota and master the craft, you’ll have a clear pathway to grow into an Account Executive role at Paddle.

What you'll do

  • Quickly develop a deep understanding of Paddle’s Ideal Customer Profile, core use cases, and value propositions to target the best-fit companies for us.
  • Own and properly manage a healthy territory of high-fit accounts.
  • Proactively generate conversations and effectively showcase Paddle’s set of products across all channels: LinkedIn, cold calling, email, video, and region-specific channels (WhatsApp, WeChat, etc.).
  • Convert these meaningful engagements into qualified opportunities for our Account Executive team.
  • Partner with our marketing department to collaborate on in-person and virtual events to generate demand.
  • Use modern tools, including AI-powered workflows, to work smarter, personalise outreach, and improve performance.
  • Manage and prioritise your time to consistently meet and exceed your targets.
  • Bring a winner’s mindset and high-performance attitude to the team every day.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
