Ontario CA United States Goswift Full time

Company Description

Swiftly is on a mission to help cities move more efficiently. We are the leading transit data platform for agencies to share real-time passenger information, manage day-to-day operations, and improve service performance. Today, over 180 transit agencies in 11 countries – including LA Metro, MARTA, SEPTA, and MBTA – rely on Swiftly to improve on-time performance by up to 40% and increase passenger information accuracy by up to 50%. The result is better service reliability, increased ridership, and more efficient transit operations.

Even though Swiftly's HQ office is located in San Francisco, CA, we are open to candidates in most locations across the U.S. as well as Ontario and British Columbia, Canada. At this time we are unable to provide Visa sponsorship.

Business Development at Swiftly

The Business Development team is a critical part of Swiftly’s growth engine, responsible for identifying and engaging with transit agencies that would benefit from Swiftly’s platform. Our Business Development Representatives (BDRs) work closely with the Sales and Marketing teams to drive top-of-funnel activity and ensure the success of our Account Executives (AEs). At Swiftly, BDRs don’t just generate leads—they build relationships. By understanding the unique challenges of prospective agencies, BDRs help position Swiftly as the go-to partner for improving transit operations and passenger experience. This role is ideal for ambitious individuals passionate about making a tangible impact in the transit industry while laying the foundation for a career in sales.

About the role

As a Business Development Representative, you will play a pivotal role in fueling Swiftly’s growth by identifying and engaging with prospective transit agencies. Your mission will be to uncover opportunities, qualify leads, and set the stage for successful partnerships between Swiftly and public transit agencies in North America. You will also work as a bridge between the Marketing team and the Sales team, effectively turning Sales Qualified Leads (SQLs) into Sales Qualified Opportunities (SQOs).

  • Develop AI Processes: Create AI-driven processes that shape how we approach business development and maximize efficiency.
  • CRM Management: Maintain detailed and accurate records of outreach efforts, prospects, and lead qualifications in Swiftly’s CRM system (Salesforce).
  • Learning & Growth: Stay informed on public transit trends and develop a strong understanding of Swiftly’s value proposition to effectively communicate with prospects.

What success looks like

  • Generating high-quality leads that convert into opportunities for the sales team.
  • Developing a robust understanding of transit agencies’ challenges and positioning Swiftly as the solution.
  • Consistently meeting or exceeding key performance metrics, such as qualified meetings scheduled, outreach activity levels, SQOs booked, and pipeline generated.

  • You’re excited by Swiftly’s mission to make cities move more efficiently.
