Full-time SDR, Zinc
FULL-TIME SDR JOB · SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT SECTOR · LONDON, ENGLAND, UNITED KINGDOM
Standard full-time SDR hire at a fast-growing SaaS/background-checking firm. £36–40k salary, London hybrid, 5 days/week. Not an executive or fractional role; the Fractional Quest board focuses on senior leadership and interim/fractional arrangements, making this a poor fit.
Full-time SDR — the balanced verdict
Why this role stands out
- Established, profitable company (3 years of 2x YoY growth) signals stability
- Transparent compensation and benefits (equity, therapy access, flexible working)
- Clear role scope and mentoring culture (help newer SDRs, coaching emphasis)
Worth checking before you apply
- SDR is an individual contributor IC role, not executive/head-of-level leadership
- Full-time permanent commitment, no flexibility for fractional portfolio work
- Salary is entry-to-junior (£36–40k) not senior executive territory
