Business Development Representative

The Opportunity

Adobe is looking for a motivated, persistent, and curious individual to join our sales development team as a Business Development Representative (BDR) supporting the Americas Digital Media or Digital Experience organization.

As a BDR, you are the first point of contact for prospects and a critical partner to our Account Executive teams. You will prospect, qualify, and develop target accounts to generate sales-ready meetings and pipeline that drives revenue growth. You'll engage senior business leaders and decision makers across marketing, digital, and commercial functions; building relationships, uncovering needs, and creating opportunities through personalized, multi-channel outreach.

This role is a proven launchpad. BDRs who demonstrate strong performance have a clear path into Account Executive, Inside Sales, and Sales Development roles. If you're looking for a place to build a sales career, this is it.

• Generate sales pipeline through outbound prospecting via phone, video, email, and social channels

• Research accounts, identify key stakeholders, and develop personalized outreach that creates meaningful business conversations

• Meet and exceed monthly, quarterly, and annual pipeline targets

• Build and maintain relationships with prospects through consistent, value-driven communication

• Partner closely with Account Executives to develop account strategy and move opportunities forward

• Handle prospect objections with curiosity and confidence

• Maintain up-to-date knowledge of Adobe's solutions and competitive positioning

• Keep accurate, organized records in CRM and pipeline tracking tools

What You Need to Succeed

• 4-year college degree or equivalent experience required

• Experience working toward measurable goals in sales, customer-facing roles, or an environment where performance was tracked

• Strong written and verbal communication skills — you're clear, concise, and engaging across channels

• Curiosity — you ask thoughtful questions and you do your research

• Adaptability — you adjust your approach based on what you learn, and you don't let setbacks stop your momentum

• Organization and ownership — you manage multiple priorities successfully and own the outcome

• Collaborative instincts — you work well with AEs, peers, and cross-functional partners toward shared goals

• Comfort with technology — you pick up new ideas and tools quickly and implement them into your work

• Preferred experience with sales prospecting tools (Salesforce, Outreach, LinkedIn Sales Navigator)
