Millions of individuals, small teams, and large companies run their work on Notion. Notinos (our employees) are customer zero in bringing this future of work to life. We care about craft, building things that last, and the belief that great work is still fundamentally human. Our goal isn’t to ship the next feature.

ABOUT THE ROLE
Notion is rebuilding its go-to-market motion around a workflow-first, builder-led model—and the BDR is at the front of it. As a Business Development Rep, you'll be the force that turns the right accounts into the right conversations. You'll partner closely with Solutions Consultants to identify and target companies that are ready to rethink how they work—and your job is to get them in the room. This isn't generic pipeline work: you're qualifying for workflow-first, build-ready opportunities that set SCs up to win. If you're competitive, curious, and energized by outbound that actually means something, this is the role for you.
WHAT YOU'LL ACHIEVE
- Generate qualified, workflow-first pipeline by identifying and targeting high-potential accounts in your assigned book, partnering with your sellers on account and outbound strategy
- Run multi-channel outbound campaigns—email, phone, LinkedIn, and events—to create urgency and secure first meetings with the right decision-makers
- Conduct initial qualification to ensure meetings handed to sellers are "ready to build," not just "ready to talk"—validating ICP, intent, and workflow fit before the handoff
- Document and deliver clean handoff packets in Salesforce with ICP signals, pain points, workflow hypothesis, and stakeholder context so sellers can hit the ground running
- Leverage GTM System tooling and intent data to sharpen targeting, prioritize accounts by signal strength, and increase the quality and consistency of your outbound motion
BASIC QUALIFICATIONS
- Proven track record in outbound pipeline generation, with hands-on experience in cold prospecting across phone, email, and social channels
- Strong written and verbal communication skills with the ability to craft compelling, persona-specific outreach that earns a response
- Sharp qualification instincts—able to quickly assess ICP fit, identify urgency, and set solutions consultants up for high-quality first conversations
- Passion for AI/ML and understanding of API-first or consumption-based business models
- High-activity mindset with the discipline to prioritize based on signal and data, not just volume
- You don't need to be an AI expert, but you're curious and willing to adopt AI tools to work smarter and deliver better results.
PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS
- Experience with Salesforce, Outreach, or similar GTM tooling
- Familiarity with Notion as a product or prior experience selling productivity, collaboration, or workflow software
- Background in a high-velocity, metric-driven outbound environment with clear pipeline targets
COMPENSATION
- The compensation offered for this role will be based on multiple factors such as location, the role’s scope and complexity, and the candidate’s experience and expertise, and may vary from the range provided below.
- For this role, based in San Francisco the estimated hourly rate is $33.65 - $38.70 per hour with a 30k annual commission target, annualized to salary range of $100,000 - $115,000 per year.
A Note on AI
You don’t need deep AI expertise for every role, but we do expect every Notino to be intellectually curious, drawn to tinkering and discovery, and excited to use AI as a real collaborator in their work. For some roles, AI fluency is a core requirement — when that’s the case, we'll say so explicitly in the qualifications. People who thrive here don’t treat AI as a novelty. They use it to think better, and make their work easier for others to build on.
EQUAL OPPORTUNITY & ACCOMMODATIONS
We hire talented people from a wide range of backgrounds. If you’re excited about this role but don’t meet every bullet, we still encourage you to apply. Notion is an equal opportunity employer and does not discriminate on the basis of any legally protected characteristic. Consistent with applicable law, we will consider for employment qualified applicants with arrest and conviction records. Notion provides reasonable accommodations during the application process; if you need one, please let your recruiter know. Notion is proud to be an equal opportunity employer. We do not discriminate in hiring or any employment decision based on race, color, religion, national origin, age, sex (including pregnancy, childbirth, or related medical conditions), marital status, ancestry, physical or mental disability, genetic information, veteran status, gender identity or expression, sexual orientation, or other applicable legally protected characteristic. Notion considers qualified applicants with criminal histories, consistent with applicable federal, state and local law. Notion is also committed to providing reasonable accommodations for qualified individuals with disabilities and disabled veterans in our job application procedures. If you need assistance or an accommodation due to a disability, please let your recruiter know.

Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding Business Development Representative Jobs
Verify your degree field matches the role
H-1B1 visa requires specialty occupation status, meaning your degree must relate directly to business development. A business, marketing, or communications degree works. A general arts degree without a business concentration can trigger a consular challenge.
Search LCA filings before applying
Use Migrate Mate to filter employers by H-1B1 visa Labor Condition Application history for Business Development Representative roles. Companies with active LCA filings have already demonstrated willingness and process familiarity for Singapore-national sponsorship.
Target SaaS and enterprise tech employers specifically
Business development roles at SaaS companies are consistently filed under H-1B1 visa because the positions require defined business or sales strategy education. These employers also tend to have in-house immigration teams already familiar with the Singapore bilateral agreement.
Request a certified LCA before signing your offer
Your employer files the LCA with DOL before your consular appointment. Ask for the certified LCA and Form DS-160 instructions early. Delays in LCA certification, which DOL targets at seven business days, are the most common source of appointment scheduling holdups.
Prepare a specialty occupation letter tied to your duties
Consular officers assess whether the specific BDR role qualifies as a specialty occupation. Have your employer draft a detailed duties letter citing the O*NET occupation profile for your position and confirming a bachelor's degree in a related field is a standard hiring requirement.
Renew from inside the U.S. using a border port of entry
H-1B1 visa doesn't allow change of status from inside the U.S. through USCIS. When renewing, you'll return to a Singapore consulate or use a Canadian or Mexican port of entry for re-entry. Plan your renewal timeline so your current H-1B1 validity doesn't lapse mid-sales cycle.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does a Business Development Representative role qualify as a specialty occupation under H-1B1?
Yes, if the employer requires at least a bachelor's degree in a directly related field such as business, marketing, or communications. The role must genuinely require that specific education to perform the duties. Generic sales roles where any degree is accepted, regardless of field, can fail the specialty occupation test at the consulate.
How does the H-1B1 Singapore visa compare to H-1B for Business Development Representative jobs?
H-1B1 visa has no lottery and no USCIS petition filing, so your employer skips the annual April registration process entirely. You apply directly at the U.S. Embassy in Singapore with an approved LCA from DOL. The tradeoff is that H-1B1 doesn't allow dual intent, so you can't simultaneously pursue a green card while on H-1B1 status.
How do I find Business Development Representative employers that sponsor H-1B1 Singapore visas?
Migrate Mate filters job listings by employers with verified H-1B1 visa Labor Condition Application filing history, so you're targeting companies that have already navigated the Singapore bilateral visa process. This removes the guesswork of cold-applying to employers unfamiliar with H-1B1 sponsorship requirements.
Can my employer file an H-1B1 LCA if they've only ever sponsored H-1B visas before?
Yes. The DOL LCA process for H-1B1 visa uses the same FLAG system employers use for H-1B visa filings, so the workflow is familiar. The key difference is that after LCA certification, your employer doesn't file a USCIS I-129 petition. You take the certified LCA directly to the consular appointment in Singapore.
What happens to my H-1B1 status if my Business Development Representative role changes significantly?
A material change in your job duties, title, or work location typically requires your employer to file an amended LCA with DOL. If the amended role no longer qualifies as a specialty occupation or the prevailing wage shifts, your H-1B1 visa status could be affected. Confirm any significant promotion or territory change with your employer's immigration contact before it takes effect.
