SDR, Cold Call Specialist
Job description
About the role
You will own the end-to-end process of identifying and qualifying event-focused decision makers through proactive outbound engagement, ensuring that every call moves a measurable opportunity toward scheduled discovery. You will leverage data-led insights to surface high-potential prospects, articulate a clear return on event participation, and position Vendelux Meetings as the intelligent layer that turns attendance into predictable pipeline. In this capacity, you will work directly with event organizers and buyer personas who value benchmarking and audience intelligence, translating raw event data into structured, revenue-driving conversations. You will collaborate closely with internal stakeholders to refine messaging, share competitive signals, and align on the most effective pathways to convert event interest into booked meetings. Your daily work will center on building a reliable, scalable outbound motion that makes events a core channel for growth rather than a series of disconnected activations. You will be responsible for maintaining a disciplined pipeline that feeds the broader revenue engine, using each call to gather intelligence and refine the go-to-market approach. Through consistent execution and data-backed outreach, you will help the company reinforce its position as the leading insight platform for the event marketing industry.
