About Meteomatics
Meteomatics is a Swiss weather technology company delivering the world's most accurate weather data via a powerful API and proprietary drone\-based measurement technology. Our customers span renewable energy, finance, logistics, aviation, agriculture, and retail — organisations that rely on precise, hyperlocal forecasts to make critical decisions. With a growing global customer base and a product\-led growth motion, we are scaling our commercial team to match our technical ambitions.
The Role
We are looking for an experienced SDR Manager/Team Lead to build, lead, and scale our global Sales Development function based in Berlin \& New York.
Reporting to the Head of Sales, you will own the top of the funnel, defining outbound prospecting strategy, hiring and coaching a team of SDRs, with some individual contribution to start with as we scale out the team.
The role is expected to partner closely with Marketing and Account Executives to drive a predictable pipeline of qualified opportunities.
This is a high\-impact, people\-first management role at a company where weather data and technology genuinely excite your buyers.
This role requires a high level of motivation, strong leadership capabilities, and a solution\-oriented mindset. This is a fantastic opportunity to scale a team, optimize sales development processes, and build a leadership career with a global leader in weather technology.
Your responsibilities
Team Leadership \& Coaching:
- Lead \& develop the SDR team: Hire, onboard, coach, and performance\-manage a team of SDRs. Run regular 1\-to\-1s, call reviews, and skills\-development sessions to accelerate ramp and build a high\-performance culture.
- Own pipeline targets: Set and deliver against monthly and quarterly SQL and pipeline\-value targets in collaboration with Sales leadership. Build transparent reporting and forecasting cadences.
- Define outbound strategy: Design territory and segmentation models across key verticals (energy, aviation, insurance, finance, agriculture, retail). Develop persona\-specific messaging that resonates with technical and commercial buyers.
- Drive process \& tooling: Manage the SDR tech stack (Hubspot, Gong, Apollo, LinkedIn Sales Navigator, Claude, ChatGPT etc; sequencing, intent data, enrichment). Continuously test and iterate sequences, cadences, and playbooks to improve conversion rates.
- Partner cross\-functionally: Work tightly with Marketing on campaign alignment and lead hand\-offs, and with AEs to ensure smooth qualification handovers and feedback loops.
- Champion product knowledge: Build deep familiarity with Meteomatics' API, datasets, and use cases so your team can speak credibly with data\-savvy prospects from the first touch.
- Report \& improve: Track SDR KPIs (activities, connects, meetings set, SQL rate, pipeline generated) and present insights and recommendations to senior leadership.
- Hands\-on Prospecting: While we scale out the team the role will need to maintain a reduced individual target by cold calling, emailing, and nurturing high\-value inbound/outbound leads to keep your skills sharp and test new strategies.
- Brand Representation: Represent Meteomatics at key exhibitions and events, building long\-term, trusting relationships with prospects.
What we're looking for:
- Language Skills: Fluency in German and English is essential.
- Experience: You have 4\+ years of experience in B2B SaaS tech sales, with at least 1–2 years successfully mentoring, coaching, or leading an SDR team (or acting as a Senior SDR).
- Proven track record of hitting pipeline and targets in a metrics\-driven environment.
- Hands\-on experience with modern sales tools (e.g. Salesforce/HubSpot, Gong/Outreach/Salesloft, LinkedIn Sales Navigator, Apollo or similar) and are comfortable utilizing AI tools to optimize team workflows.
- Leadership Mindset: You are a proactive, empathetic, and resilient leader who knows how to motivate a team through challenges and celebrate wins.
- Strong coaching skills — you can identify what's holding an SDR back and fix it.
- Comfort selling technical or data\-heavy products; experience with APIs, data services, or developer\-facing tools is a distinct advantage.
- Analytical mindset — you make decisions from data, not gut feel.
- Collaborative and low\-ego; you see your success as your team's success.
- Communication: Exceptional interpersonal and communication skills, with an agile mind that easily adapts to a fast\-paced environment
- Nice\-to\-have: Interest, curiosity, or an educational background in weather\-related fields. Prior experience scaling an SDR function from scratch.
What we offer
- Innovative and future\-oriented products and solutions for successful sales
- Flat hierarchies and the opportunity to help shape the success of Meteomatics
- Short and fast decision\-making processes
- An interesting field of work with insights into companies in various industries
- A motivated and international team of colleagues
We are looking forward to your application!
