Business Development Representative
Join us!
Telness Tech is on a mission to simplify and digitize the telecom industry. Our platform powers next-generation telecom providers, from incumbents, to MVNOs, and eSIM challengers and non-telecom players looking to embed connectivity into their offerings. With our roots in Stockholm (Sweden) and our sights on a global scale, we're building the future of telecom—fast, flexible, and customer-first.
As we accelerate our growth, we're looking for a highly driven Business Development Representative (BDR) to strengthen our pipeline creation engine — a high-impact role at the core of our commercial engine.
YOUR MISSION
The BDR is responsible for generating qualified sales opportunities within our target segments. This role focuses on outbound prospecting, inbound qualification, account research, and partner-driven lead generation — ensuring a predictable and high-quality pipeline for our Account Executives.
This isn't a standard BDR role. As a fast-growing scale-up, we operate in an uncertain, fast-moving, and challenging environment where no day is the same. You will collaborate directly with Sales and Marketing, engage closely with our commercial team, and help shape our outbound playbook from the ground up.
WHAT YOU WILL DO
You will report to the CRO and work cross-functionally across the business. Your day-to-day would look like:
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.
