Join us in building the leading AI-Powered Mission Control for Corporate Travel. Some of the world's most recognizable companies, representing over $5B in managed travel spend, rely on Clarasight to turn travel spend into a strategic advantage.
You want to be a founder. But you are smart enough to know that founders who cannot sell do not last.
You spent time in consulting, investment banking, private equity, or came up in a role where the quality of your thinking was the product. You know how to build a point of view, earn credibility in a room full of senior executives, and turn a spreadsheet into a boardroom conversation. Now you want to build something — and you are looking for the right on-ramp.
This is not a traditional SDR role. We are not looking for someone to blast sequences and hit dial counts. We are looking for someone who understands that the best pipeline comes from insight, not volume. Someone who is humble enough to pick up the phone all day and resilient enough to stay positive when the answer is no. Someone who sees AI as a tool to do things better, not just faster.
If that is you, read on.
Clarasight is hiring a Founding SDR (GTM Builder) to help us build the pipeline engine that will define how we grow.
You will work directly with Phil, our co-founder, and our sales team
You will open doors at the senior executive level inside large enterprise organizations
You will develop deep insight into how travel intersects with business priorities — and give executives a reason to take the meeting
There is no playbook yet. You will help write it.
Identify and engage senior decision makers across Finance, Procurement, HR, and Operations at large enterprise accounts
Multi-thread into new accounts and expand coverage within existing opportunities
Develop exec-level insight into how travel intersects with cost, risk, and business performance — and use that to drive conversations, not just book meetings
Partner closely with Sales and Marketing to refine targeting, messaging, and sequencing
Help define what modern outbound looks like when you build it from scratch
Develop and test approaches across phone, email, LinkedIn, and events
Create repeatable frameworks that improve conversion without sacrificing quality
Bring back what you're hearing — what's landing, what's not — to shape the product and the pitch
Booking 12–15 qualified meetings per month
Meetings held with the right people, with show rate above 80% and AEs accepting them as qualified
Multi-threaded across target accounts, not reliant on a single contact
A documented playbook of what works: messaging, channels, personas, entry points
A clear point of view on what great outbound looks like — and active work building it
Have 2–4 years of experience in consulting, investment banking, private equity, or a role where the quality of your thinking was the product, and are ready to do something different
Are genuinely curious about business — how companies work, how executives think, and how travel fits into that picture
Are resilient. You can hear no all day, stay positive, and come back sharper tomorrow
Communicate with clarity and confidence whether you're on the phone with a CFO or writing a cold email
Think in systems. You don't just want to book one meeting — you want to figure out how to book a hundred
Are comfortable with AI tools and expect to use them as a default, not a novelty
Love travel. Not as a perk — as a genuine interest in an industry that is more complex and more interesting than most people realize
Exposure to enterprise software sales or B2B GTM
Familiarity with the corporate travel ecosystem (TMC, OBT, expense, card)
Experience building something, even outside of work
Experience working alongside AI systems and applying human judgment to automated outputs
