Full job description
Why Join Ivo?
Contracts are the oldest business technology in human history. They allow us to collaborate: they define what we promise each other, how we work together, and what happens when things go wrong.
Ivo builds AI products that helps companies like Meta, Uber, IBM, Intel, DoorDash, Mitsubishi Electric, and Coinbase solve their most difficult contracting problems. We think that large language models have created an opportunity to fundamentally change how businesses collaborate with each other.
At Ivo you will work on challenging problems with colleagues who have high standards for each other, move fast, and care deeply about their craft.
The Opportunity
We're looking for an ambitious and energetic Sales Development Representative (SDR) to help us book demos and generate new business. This is a critical role as one of our first sales hires, where you'll have a direct impact on our growth and success. This role is ideal for a recent graduate with relevant sales internship experience or someone with 1 year of SDR experience.
Key Responsibilities:
Lead Generation:
Identify, research, and qualify potential clients, focusing on expanding our reach in the legal tech and enterprise sectors.
Prospecting:
Reach out to leads via calls, emails, and other channels to build a solid sales pipeline for the Account Executives.
Initial Engagement:
Conduct discovery conversations to understand the needs of potential clients and convey the value of Ivo’s product in solving their challenges.
Collaboration & Coordination:
Work closely with the sales and marketing teams to refine outreach strategies and ensure a consistent message.
Market Insight Gathering:
Stay informed about industry trends, competitor offerings, and client pain points to effectively position Ivo’s product.
Qualifications:
Bachelor’s degree
Recent graduate or 1 year of work experience as a SDR/BDR
Strong interpersonal and communication skills; confident in reaching out to prospects and initiating meaningful conversations.
Self-driven and goal-oriented, with the desire to grow in a fast-paced, performance-focused environment.

Ivo might be a good fit for you if you:
Would describe yourself as being relentlessly resourceful.
You have a strong internal sense of urgency. You have a bias towards doing things today, rather than tomorrow.
Experience working in a startup environment is preferred but not required.
Are excited about the adventure of building a company!
