Senior business development representatives research target accounts, identify decision-makers, and engage prospective customers through channels such as email, phone, social media, and events. They qualify leads, uncover business needs, schedule meetings for account executives, and maintain accurate activity and pipeline records in a customer relationship management (CRM) system.
