Seasonal Bdr Jobs (NOW HIRING)

Location: Houston, TX - Hybrid (in-office 3-4 days/week)

The Business Development Representative (BDR) is a vital member of the marketing and sales team, responsible for qualifying leads and generating opportunities (demos) to support the company's growth initiatives.
