Competencies

This is not about ticking boxes or tallying years of experience. It is something deeper. The people who thrive here share a few things:

  • Curiosity: Always learning, and learning quickly, whether it's about new prospects, our product, technology, client success, or the sales process. Open to feedback and thriving on it.

  • Perceptive and focused: Alert to what people say, with a knack for asking the right questions and listening intently. Extraordinary communication, presentation, and interpersonal skills.

  • Results driven: Setting clear goals and achieving them. Self-motivated to succeed, and to succeed in the right way. Creating relationships and deals that last.

Our existing team come from diverse backgrounds, but a few things tie us together:

  • A proven track record of at least 12 months in B2B sales, SDR, BDR, or talent acquisition

  • A strong academic background, usually with standout extracurricular achievements

  • A desire to take on a bigger challenge and a no excuses mindset

Trajectory

You will have responsibility from the get-go, and an accelerated career path awaits. Within Planhat, we're the engine room that drives growth. For our prospective customers, we're the front-of-house and the all important first introduction to the company. The BDR team are comfortable blending long-term thinking and short-term pragmatism, whether:

  • Identifying prospects and conducting outreach through calls, emails, and LinkedIn

  • Building strong relationships with post-sales leaders across our key markets

  • Qualifying, then prioritizing the needs and aspirations of executives across different industries, seniority levels, and company sizes

  • Laying the groundwork for customer discovery calls for Account Executives with prospects across SMB, Mid-market, and Enterprise

From there the path accelerates. You progress toward more senior roles and greater responsibility, with a clear route toward becoming an Account Executive. You build entrepreneurial skills at the forefront of a growing business rather than reading about it, take on leadership opportunities as the team scales, and gain exposure across markets and potentially across our offices in the USA and EMEA.

Definition of Success
  • You have taken on real responsibility from day one and earned the trust of the team around you

  • You are consistently hitting and exceeding your meeting and pipeline targets

  • You are generating high quality qualified pipeline that converts into discovery calls and revenue for Account Executives

  • You are seen as a trusted partner by the AE team and by Customer Success leaders across your markets

  • You are turning outreach into relationships and deals that last

What you need to know about the Los Angeles Tech Scene

Los Angeles is a global leader in entertainment, so it’s no surprise that many of the biggest players in streaming, digital media and game development call the city home. But the city boasts plenty of non-entertainment innovation as well, with tech companies spanning verticals like AI, fintech, e-commerce and biotech. With major universities like Caltech, UCLA, USC and the nearby UC Irvine, the city has a steady supply of top-flight tech and engineering talent — not counting the graduates flocking to Los Angeles from across the world to enjoy its beaches, culture and year-round temperate climate.

Key Facts About Los Angeles Tech

  • Number of Tech Workers: 375,800; 5.5% of overall workforce (2024 CompTIA survey)
  • Major Tech Employers: Snap, Netflix, SpaceX, Disney, Google
  • Key Industries: Artificial intelligence, adtech, media, software, game development
  • Funding Landscape: $11.6 billion in venture capital funding in 2024 (Pitchbook)
  • Notable Investors: Strong Ventures, Fifth Wall, Upfront Ventures, Mucker Capital, Kittyhawk Ventures
  • Research Centers and Universities: California Institute of Technology, UCLA, University of Southern California, UC Irvine, Pepperdine, California Institute for Immunology and Immunotherapy, Center for Quantum Science and Engineering
