👶 About Junior

We're building cutting edge LLM powered tools to supercharge the investment research process for private market investors.

Our clients include several of the world's top private equity firms, consulting firms, and investment teams. They are responsible for deploying billions of dollars annually and rely on Junior to move faster, find insights sooner, and spend less time on manual research.

We're a profitable, bootstrapped company with a growing team based in London and New York.

💡 Role Description

This is not a traditional SDR role.

We're not looking for someone to blast thousands of emails and hope for replies.

Our buyers are some of the most sophisticated professionals in the world. They sit inside private equity firms, consulting firms, venture capital funds, and investment banks. Generic outbound does not work.

We're looking for someone who wants to become an exceptional enterprise seller by learning how to identify opportunities, build relationships, create demand, and break into high-value accounts.

You'll work directly with founders, Account Executives, and GTM leadership to help drive the next stage of Junior's growth.

The best people in this role are highly curious, competitive, organized, and relentless. They enjoy the challenge of getting in front of difficult to reach decision makers and are excited by the idea of becoming a top-performing Account Executive in the future.

3) Pipeline Creation

Own top-of-funnel activity and pipeline generation

Qualify opportunities and ensure clean handoffs to Account Executives

Maintain exceptional CRM hygiene and account notes

Track outreach performance and iterate quickly

4) Events & Community

Support conferences, executive dinners, and customer events

Build relationships with attendees before and after events

Generate meetings and opportunities from Junior's growing community presence

Help establish Junior as the go-to AI platform for private market investors

5) GTM Experiments

Test new outbound approaches, messaging, and channels

Run structured experiments and share learnings

Help build repeatable outbound playbooks that scale
