Sales Development Representative (SDR) - M&A Advisory firm

Job description

Location: Barcelona, Spain (Remote/Hybrid)

Company: Blueforge Partners

Salary: €30,000 Base + Uncapped Commission 

The Company

Our client is a premier Strategic Buy-Side M&A Advisory firm that bridges the gap between ambitious industrial leadership teams and their next big acquisition. Unlike traditional financial boutiques that focus solely on the "sell-side" paperwork, our client acts as the architect for corporate growth, helping companies across Europe and beyond expand through intentional, off-market mergers.

With a strategic hub in Barcelona, they are expanding their outreach team to find high-energy professionals who can initiate the conversations that lead to multi-million euro partnerships.

 

The Role

As an SDR, you will be the engine of our client’s front-end growth cycle. Your mission is to transform a pre-qualified list of targets into active engagement. You aren't just making "calls"-you are reaching out to business owners and CEOs to discuss the future of their companies.

Your daily mission:

  • Executive Outreach: Confidently approach C-Suite executives and Owners of small-to-mid-sized companies (10–100 employees) to gauge interest in strategic partnerships.

  • Strategic Hunting: Identify decision-makers and navigate gatekeepers to reach the "CEO-Owner."

  • Relationship Initiation: Execute high-volume, high-quality cold calling and personalized emailing to spark interest in "off-market" M&A opportunities.

  • Lead Qualification: Successfully schedule qualified discovery calls for the senior partners.

  • Strategy Alignment: Work directly with the firm’s partners to understand the specific "growth thesis" of their clients, ensuring every outreach attempt is tailored and professional.


Is this you?

Our client values soft skills, resilience, and executive presence over specific degrees. They are looking for someone who can hold their own in a conversation with a business owner.

Your Profile:

  • Experience: 6+ months of experience in an SDR or B2B sales role. You should understand how to manage a pipeline and handle rejection.

  • Languages: Professional level English is a must. (French or Spanish is a strong "plus," but English is the primary working language).

  • Communication: You are persistent and "pushy" in a professional way-able to open doors without frustrating the person on the other end.

  • Mindset: You are outgoing, comfortable with cold calling, and motivated by a repetitive but high-reward process.

  • Career Drive: You want to learn the world of M&A from the ground up and are excited by the prospect of direct mentorship from industry experts.

 

What’s in it for you?

  • Financial Reward: A competitive €30,000 base salary plus a variable structure that pays out for every qualified call generated.

  • Work-Life Balance: High flexibility with a hybrid model (up to 3 days remote) focused on results rather than office hours.

  • Prestige & Learning: Gain deep insight into the Mergers & Acquisitions industry, working in a flat hierarchy where your voice is heard.

  • Central Location: Modern office space located near Sants Station/Tarragona, perfect for the Barcelona lifestyle.

  • No "Ceiling": As the company grows, so will your responsibilities. You’ll have the chance to move into more technical qualification roles in the future.
