Manager - Sales Development (SDR)

About AirGarage

AirGarage is repurposing the 30% of real estate in the average American city currently dedicated to parking.

We are building a future where real estate is digitized and can be transitioned from one use to another seamlessly on-demand, moving every piece of urban real estate toward its highest and best use.

We are starting with the $131 billion US parking real estate market because it is one of the most offline and mismanaged commercial real estate asset types.

As a full-stack parking operator, we automate the operation of parking lots and parking garages. We handle everything from advertising to collecting payments from drivers and enforcing against illegal parking. We already operate 300+ parking lots and parking garages across 35 US states and we are growing quickly.

We are backed by top tier investors including Andreessen Horowitz, Floodgate, Founders Fund, and angel investors who have founded or worked at companies like Uber, Opendoor, Flexport, and more.

THE ROLE 👩🏾‍💻

We’re looking for a Sales Development Manager to lead our growing team of SDRs and take ownership of outbound performance, team development, and pipeline contribution. You’ll be responsible for coaching reps to exceed their goals, hiring new talent, and continuously refining our outbound strategy.

We're growing quickly and investing heavily in scaling our sales team. Your mission will be to evaluate our current sales process—identifying what works and what doesn't—and help define our future playbook for success.
