Job description

Founding Sales Development Representative (SDR) U.S. Remote

Company: Venturous

Start Date: March 20, 2026

Location: Remote: U.S.

Salary: $50,000 plus commission

About the Company: Venturous is building a curated network of elite enterprise healthcare operators who help emerging healthcare companies solve critical go-to-market and operational challenges.

Many healthcare startups struggle to navigate complex enterprise buyers such as health systems, payers and large provider organizations. Venturous connects these companies with experienced operators who have spent decades inside those systems.

Examples include:


• Former hospital system procurement leaders


• Payer network executives


• Revenue cycle operators


• Digital health commercialization leaders

Our experts engage with companies through short-term problem-solving engagements, advisory work, fractional leadership roles and executive placements.

Venturous is backed by a leading healthcare venture studio and one of the most active healthcare technology investors in the United States.

Job Description:
Venturous is hiring a Founding Sales Development Representative (SDR) to identify emerging healthcare companies that can benefit from the Venturous expert network.

Your primary responsibility is to research, identify, and engage venture backed healthcare startups and book qualified meetings for the Venturous team.

This is an outbound role focused on prospecting and meeting generation, not closing.

You will play a key role in building the company's initial sales pipeline.

Key Responsibilities

Prospecting and Lead Generation

• Identify venture backed healthcare startups that fit the Venturous ideal customer profile


• Research companies, founders and leadership teams to understand their challenges


• Build targeted lead lists using tools such as Apollo, LinkedIn Sales Navigator and other sources

Outbound Engagement

• Conduct outbound outreach via email, Instantly, LinkedIn and other channels


• Craft personalized messaging tailored to each company and leadership team


• Book qualified meetings with founders and executives

Pipeline Development

• Maintain accurate records of outreach activity and pipeline in the CRM


• Track outreach performance and continuously improve messaging and targeting


• Work closely with Venturous leadership to refine the ideal customer profile and messaging

Market Intelligence

• Monitor venture activity and identify new healthcare startups entering the market


• Identify trends and opportunities in digital health and healthcare services companies

Ideal Candidate

You may be a strong fit if you:


• Have experience in outbound sales, business development, recruiting or lead generation


• Are curious about healthcare innovation and startup ecosystems


• Are comfortable researching companies and leadership teams independently


• Write clear and compelling outreach messages


• Are resilient and comfortable with high volumes of outbound activity


• Are organized and able to track activity and results in a CRM

Experience working with healthcare companies, venture backed startups, or enterprise healthcare buyers is a strong plus but not required.

Why This Role Is Unique

This is a founding sales role at a company building a new model for connecting healthcare startups with experienced enterprise operators.

You will gain exposure to:


• Leading healthcare startups


• Experienced healthcare executives


• Venture investors and venture studios


• The inner workings of early-stage company building

Compensation

Base salary: $50,000

Additional compensation includes commission based on qualified meetings and revenue generated from sourced opportunities.

Benefits

• Health insurance


• Generous PTO


• Fully remote work environment


• Opportunity to grow into senior sales or business development roles as the company scales
