Bilingual Sales Development Representative

Bilingual Sales Development Representative

French & English Bilingual | Financial Services | European Market

This isn’t a role for someone who wants to simply work a list, hit an activity target and fill a CRM with meetings.

We’re looking for an experienced Bilingual Sales Development Professional who knows how to open doors, build credibility and turn cold conversations into meaningful commercial opportunities.

You’ll join an established organization supporting a globally recognized leader in data analytics as it continues to expand its presence in the French financial services and banking market, while having the opportunity to help build something.

There are two absolute requirements for this position:

• You must be professionally fluent in both French and English.
  
• You must be based in Canada and able to consistently work Central European business hours (approximately 8am-5pm CET/3am-12pm AST)
  

The Opportunity:

You’ll be responsible for identifying, engaging and developing new business opportunities within the French market, with a particular focus on financial services and banking. You’ll prospect into organizations, connect with senior decision-makers, understand what’s happening inside their businesses and create opportunities that can turn into revenue.

This means you’ll:

• Identify and prospect new business opportunities within the French market
  
• Build relationships with senior executives and decision-makers
  
• Turn cold outreach into credible business conversations
  
• Qualify opportunities based on genuine business needs and commercial potential
  
• Develop and maintain a strong pipeline
  
• Use tools including LinkedIn Sales Navigator and ZoomInfo to identify and engage prospects
  
• Work closely with the broader international team to support market expansion
  
• Take ownership of your results rather than waiting to be told what to do next
  

Requirements

Who We’re Looking For:

• The right person will probably read this and immediately recognize themselves.
  
• You’re comfortable picking up the phone and you know how to build rapport quickly without sounding scripted.
  
• You’re curious enough to ask great questions and commercially minded enough to recognize an opportunity when you hear one.
  
• You understand that strong business development isn’t about sending hundreds of generic messages. It’s about understanding the person on the other side of the conversation.
  

You’re also:

• Competitive and internally motivated
  
• Resilient when you hear “no”
  
• Consistent without needing to be micromanaged
  
• A critical thinker rather than a script follower
  
• Comfortable navigating conversations with senior decision-makers
  
• Naturally relationship-driven
  
• Accountable for your own results
  
• Collaborative, but highly self-directed
  
• Energized by the opportunity to help build and grow a market
  

What You Bring

Non-negotiable:

• Professional fluency in French and English
  
• Ability and willingness to consistently work Central European business hours
  
• Approximately 2–4+ years of B2B prospecting, SDR, BDR or business development experience
  
• Previous experience within financial services and/or banking
  
• Demonstrated success generating new business through outbound prospecting
  
• Confidence using LinkedIn Sales Navigator, ZoomInfo and similar prospecting tools
  
• Strong written and verbal communication skills in both French and English
  

Why This Role Is Different

• This isn’t about activity for activity’s sake.
  
• You’ll be selling into a sophisticated market, speaking with senior business leaders and representing a highly credible solution.
  
• You’ll have the opportunity to develop deep expertise, participate in real revenue conversations and play a meaningful role in expanding an international market.
  
• For the right person, there is significant room to grow.
