About the Role:

As a Sales Development Representative, it will be your job to identify, qualify, and set up prospective clients with our Account Executives who will consult with those prospects and help them become clients.

This role spends much of the day on the phone calling Payroll Service Providers and Employers who are not currently Symmetry clients. The Sales Development Representative is politely persistent and cheerfully competitive. As a Sales Development Representative, you will collaborate with our Marketing and Sales teams to pursue and identify new business opportunities across many sectors: payroll, technology, financial services, large employers, and more. 

You will have a direct impact on Symmetry’s ability to deliver our payroll tax tools in pursuit of our vision to touch every American paycheck with accurate withholding. A focus on solving client’s pain points and providing them with the best solution for their needs is essential.
