Posted September 4, 2026. - Company: Zefir - Location: Paris - Job type: Full-time - Pay: €35k - Posted: 2026-09-04 - Apply: https://jobs.ashbyhq.com/zefir/20cdaba4-4b09-4ebf-85ed-6104c3b70e43/application - Source: https://jobmagic.ai/jobs/business-development-representative-bdr-zefir-2qgy4m ## Description **Who We Are**Zefir is building an AI autopilot for home sales in Europe, starting in France: an AI agent runs the entire sale and purchase journey end-to-end, orchestrating local brokers, portals, buyers, and documents. Backed by €60 million from top-tier investors Sequoia Capital and Kima Ventures, we're committed to accelerating life changes for millions of current and future European homeowners. ### **The role** As a Business Development Representative (BDR), you are the first commercial point of contact with our prospects. You join Zefir's Sales team and reach out to homeowners who have run a valuation on our website but have not booked an appointment yet. The core of the role is reactivation: these homeowners showed interest, then stopped there. You are the one who gets them moving again, on the phone, one by one. Your goal as a BDR: create the sales opportunities that feed our revenue directly. ### **What you will do** - Handle around 100 calls per day, with a target of 3 to 4 meetings booked daily. - Run qualification calls of about 20 minutes: understand the client's project, present Zefir's value proposition, and book a follow-up meeting with an Account Executive. - Keep rigorous track of your pipeline and move leads through the Sales funnel. - Work closely with Account Executives to maximize conversion and contribute directly to Zefir's growth. ### **Career path** We are transparent on this. A BDR role can open the door to an Account Executive role internally, but there is no automatic progression and no guaranteed timeline. Any move depends on three things: performance, behavioral fit, and team needs. What we can commit to: our Consumer Account Executives, the role a BDR grows into, and our Sales Managers are filled exclusively through internal mobility. We never open these roles externally. Top performers are rewarded, with uncapped variable pay and real visibility. ### **Who we are looking for** - **0 to 2 years of experience.** This role is designed for a junior profile who wants to learn sales on the phone, fast and in the fiel d. - Master's level graduate from a business school, an engineering school or a university, or a first experience as a BDR, SDR or sales rep in a structured environment. - Excellent written and verbal communication. Fluency in French is required. Fluent English is a plus, not a must-have. - Rigorous and well organized, able to sustain a high volume of client interactions over time. - Energized by performance and intensity, with a client and results orientation. - Resilient, and able to take feedback to improve quickly. One honest note: this role is intense and repetitive by design. Around a hundred calls a day, every day, with rejection along the way. That is what makes you improve fast at sales, and it is not for everyone. ### **Compensation and working setup** - **€47K package**: €35K base plus €12K of uncapped variable, on top of the BSPCE granted to everyone. - **Three days on-site, two days of remote work per week**, at our Le Peletier office in the 9th arrondissement. Being in the room matters on this role, you learn to sell by hearing others sell. ### **Hiring process** - **Screening**: a first 15-minute conversation with a member of the Talent team. - **Use case**: two written questions (15 minutes of work) to send back within 4 days. - **Role interview, at our offices**: 60 minutes on the role with the Sales Manager. - **Culture interview**: 45 minutes with a member of the Sales team. ### **Benefits ** ### *The following is for permanent employees only.
