If you enjoy building pipeline from scratch, excel at strategic outreach, and want to make a real impact in a high-performing international team, then this is the perfect opportunity for you!
The Role
As a Senior Sales Development Representative, you’ll be stepping into a new role for our EMEA Enterprise Sales team.

This role reports to the Manager, Industry Sales.
It’s a great opportunity to make a meaningful impact and grow your career. As you demonstrate success, there’s a path to taking on more responsibility and, over time, moving into a full-cycle sales position.
This position can be located in Oslo, Norway or Copenhagen, Denmark.

- Lead Qualification: Identify and qualify potential opportunities to support the growth of our customer base and ensure a consistent flow of high quality meetings for the Account Executives.
- Pipeline Management: Build and manage a pipeline of warm and cold leads, coordinating closely with Account Executives to progress opportunities and convert interest into revenue.

- Event Participation: Represent Kahoot! at relevant industry events and conferences to generate leads and expand your network.
Requirements
- 1+ years of experience in SDR/BDR roles, ideally within B2B SaaS and focused on the enterprise segment.
- Proven cold-calling experience—you’re confident on the phone and comfortable starting conversations with senior stakeholders.
- Strong skills in crafting outbound messaging, building sequences, and using data to inform your outreach.
- Strong communication skills – both verbal and written – in English; additional European languages (especially French and German) are a big plus.
