Let's fix hospitality, for good.
Running restaurants in the US is brutal - margins are razor thin, waste is high, and teams are stretched to the limit. But it doesn’t have to be this hard. That’s why we built Nory.
Our CEO, Conor, knows the pain first-hand. After founding and scaling Mad Egg in Ireland, he got tired of juggling “market-leading” systems, clunky spreadsheets, and endless printouts. So he built the tool he wished he’d had from day one.
Nory is the all-knowing restaurant management system. It blends real-time data with AI predictive analytics, giving operators control of their margins. From food prep to forecasting, it’s operational intelligence that helps restaurants run with consistency, certainty, and profit. The result? Thriving restaurants, better jobs, less waste, stronger margins.
And we’re just getting started. Fresh off a Series B led by Kinnevik https://www.nory.ai/blog/nory-series-b-funding-to-revolutionise-restaurant-operations and Accel, we’ve grown to 120+ people across Ireland, the UK, and Spain - and now we’re bringing Nory to the US.
We're hiring one of our first US Business Development Representatives (BDR), based in New York City. You'll be on the ground floor of our US expansion: opening doors with restaurant groups, shaping how we go to market, and growing with the team as it scales. If you want to build something rather than join something already built, this is it!
WHAT YOU'LL BE DOING:
You’ll be working very closely with Abbi https://www.linkedin.com/in/abbisimms/ (Snr. BDR), and our US Sales team to learn and develop your craft whilst building out relationships (and pipeline) with some of the coolest brands within hospitality. Here’s some more detail:
- Open doors - Generate high-quality pipeline through cold calls, emails, LinkedIn, and in-person outreach to US restaurant groups.
- Learn the US market - Research accounts, find decision-makers, and build a sharp understanding of what operators here care about.
- Book the meetings that matter - Set up qualified first conversations for our Account Executives and help them hit revenue targets.
- Test and iterate - Try new messaging, channels and sequences, and double down on what works.
- Be a voice from the field - Share what you hear from prospects with Sales, Marketing and Product to sharpen our US go-to-market.
- Help build the playbook - As one of our first US BDRs, your learnings will shape how the team grows.
WHAT YOU'LL BRING:
- Hospitality experience with a real interest in moving into sales and/or Early-career experience (around 1–2 years) in a target-driven, people-facing role – e.g. sales, recruitment, or similar.
- A genuine passion for hospitality, restaurants, or the people who run them.
- Resilience and drive – you're comfortable hearing "no", pick yourself up quickly, and own your numbers.
- Curiosity – you ask good questions, research properly, and don't rely on stale templates.
- Strong written and verbal communication; you build rapport quickly, on the phone and in person.
- Coachability and ambition – whether you're aiming for AE, team lead or beyond, we'll back your growth.
- A startup mindset – you move fast, take initiative, and are comfortable with ambiguity in a team that's still being built.
If you're excited by what we're building, we'd love to hear from you – even if you don't tick every box.
WHAT YOU'LL GET IN RETURN:
💵 $55–70K base, $55-65k commission (110-135k OTE)
📈 Meaningful equity with standard 4-year vesting and 1-year cliff - at Nory everyone is an owner!
