About Lev

Lev is transforming the $600B commercial real estate financing space. We have built a digital platform that matches borrowers and brokers with the best-fit lenders for their deals, and uses AI to fully automate time-consuming financing workflows.

We are the first people to be tackling this problem at scale. That’s why top-tier VCs and a who’s who of financial companies have invested more than $100M to help us grab this massive opportunity.

The Role

We are looking for a strategic Sales Development Manager to architect the top-of-funnel engine for Lev’s next phase of growth. This is more than a management role; it is a high-stakes leadership position designed for a "player-coach" who thrives on setting a high bar and inspiring a team to clear it every day. You will be the architect of our outbound motion, bridging the gap between Marketing and Sales to ensure our team isn't just generating activity, but driving high-value revenue outcomes. If you are a metrics-obsessed builder who is passionate about developing talent and understands the transformative power of AI in the sales stack, we want to talk.

Here’s What You’ll Be Doing

  • Own the SDR team's output by driving high-quality pipeline generation with a specific focus on $20k+ opportunities, while relentlessly optimizing conversion rates across the funnel.
  • Lead through deep-dive coaching and feedback. You'll conduct regular call reviews, email teardowns, and deal debriefs to sharpen messaging, qualification, and closing skills.
  • Build and refine scalable inbound and outbound processes that align with Account Executive needs and broader business objectives.
  • Track and analyze performance metrics to identify gaps, using data to tie SDR activity directly to pipeline value and revenue impact.
  • Support our rapid growth by leading the full lifecycle of the SDR team-from hiring and onboarding to ramping new reps while maintaining a culture of high performance.
  • Partner closely with Marketing, AEs, and Sales Leadership to ensure our outbound efforts are perfectly aligned with company priorities.
  • Foster long-term career growth for your team through continuous enablement and transparent career pathing.

The Must Haves

  • 2+ years leading a team of SDRs or BDRs within a fast-scaling software company.
  • 3+ years of overall sales experience, including a successful track record in a quota-carrying AE role.
  • A history of successfully selling $20K+ ACV SaaS or technology solutions.
  • You have a proven ability to hire, train, and develop talent in a structured, repeatable way-you don't just follow a playbook; you write it.
  • You are comfortable delivering direct, high-integrity feedback with empathy and fairness.
  • A strong passion for metrics, performance tracking, and the continuous improvement of the sales machine.
  • A scrappy, "can-do" attitude and the flexibility to navigate the constant shifts of life at a high-growth startup.
  • A deep interest in (or knowledge of) Commercial Real Estate and a clear perspective on how AI can be leveraged to optimize sales workflows.

The Nitty Gritty

  • This is an office-based role in NYC (4 days in office)
  • Unlimited PTO
  • Excellent health insurance for you and your dependents
  • Generous stock incentive plan
  • Daily DoorDash credit for lunch and plenty of in-office snacks
  • Subsidized access to Wellhub for health and wellness
