SDR jobs in Singapore
An SDR opens the door for the sales team: researches companies, reaches out by phone, email and LinkedIn, qualifies interest and books meetings for Account Executives. It is the most common entry-level job in B2B sales. Here is what the job looks like in Singapore, where to find openings and how to land your first one — even without sales experience.

What an SDR does day to day
- Research target companies and the people who decide
- Run cold calls, emails and LinkedIn messages in sequences
- Qualify interest with a few sharp questions (need, timing, who decides)
- Book meetings for the Account Executive and hand over clean notes
- Log every touch in the CRM and hit weekly activity and meeting targets
Skills employers look for
- Resilience: most outreach gets no answer, and that is normal
- Curiosity and good questions rather than a long pitch
- Clear, short writing for email and LinkedIn
- Handling objections like “send me an email” or “not now” without giving up the conversation
- Discipline with a CRM and a daily routine
How to get your first SDR job in Singapore
- 1Learn the basics of prospecting and objection handling, and practise them out loud until they feel natural.
- 2Rewrite your CV around numbers: calls made, targets hit, customers served — even from retail, hospitality or a call centre.
- 3Search “SDR”, “BDR” and “sales development” on MyCareersFuture and LinkedIn Jobs; many roles are in Singapore CBD, one-north and Jurong or remote.
- 4Prepare a 60-second pitch about yourself and a short cold-call opener for a company you admire.
- 5Apply every day and follow up a week later: persistence is exactly what SDR managers look for.
Interview questions you should prepare
- Why do you want to work as an SDR?
