  • ClayDR Manager (Sales Development Manager)
  • Our ClayDRs (SDRs) are the front line: sales professionals who turn high-volume demand into qualified pipeline and great first impressions of Clay.
  • This is a player-coach role.
  • You're in the calls, in the pipeline reviews, and in the weeds on what's working and what isn't.
  • Coach in real time. Run call reviews, join live calls, workshop messaging. You set the standard by doing the work, not reviewing it from a dashboard.
