Role purpose
The Hyperscaler Marketplace SDR Manager is a cross‑country sales leadership role responsible for building, managing, and scaling a high‑performing lead generation and appointment setting engine across the UK and France.
The team—comprised of Marketplace Sales Development roles (France & UK) and a central Demand Generation specialist—is focused on net new customer acquisition (white space), driving top‑of‑funnel growth for SCC’s Hyperscale Marketplace propositions.
The successful candidate will be an experienced Sales Leader with specific experience managing an internal sales team capable of motivating and coaching multilingual SDR teams (English and French), implementing consistent measurement systems focused on driving the right behaviour for an internally focused sales team.
Although primarily an internal sales leadership role, a key element of the role will be spent collaborating with SCC Sales Leadership and the Sales community.
Ensure we have a robust lead handoff process and SCC Product teams to align new services and solutions to Hyperscaler marketplaces (Azure, AWS and Google Cloud Marketplaces). This ensures the SDR teams continually have an expanding portfolio of relevant marketplace‑enabled solutions to take to market.
