About this role

About the Role

We are looking for an experienced B2B sales professional who
can personally generate results while helping less-experienced salespeople
improve.

You will contact founders and senior decision-makers,
understand their business and technology challenges, qualify opportunities, and
book discovery or system-review meetings. You will also train junior sales
representatives, review their performance, and ensure the team follows a
consistent sales and CRM process.

This is a hands-on role. The successful candidate must be
comfortable making outbound calls every day, managing follow-ups, maintaining
accurate CRM records, and coaching others by example.

Responsibilities

· Make outbound calls to UK and international
business prospects.

· Engage founders, directors, and other senior
decision-makers.

· Use consultative questions to identify
operational, technology, process, and support requirements.

· Qualify prospects based on their needs,
authority, urgency, and suitability.

· Book qualified discovery and system-review
meetings.

· Handle common objections professionally and
confidently.

· Complete follow-up calls, emails, and other
assigned sales activities on time.

· Maintain complete and accurate lead records in
the CRM.

· Record call outcomes, notes, qualification
details, and agreed next actions.

· Progress leads through the company’s approved
sales process.

· Train new and junior sales representatives.

· Review calls and provide practical coaching on
questioning, listening, objection handling, and closing.

· Monitor CRM discipline and follow-up performance
across the team.

· Help improve call scripts, qualification
questions, sales messages, and training materials.

· Produce clear weekly reports covering activity,
conversations, meetings, conversions, and coaching.

· Follow data-protection, consent, opt-out, and Do
Not Contact requirements.

Requirements

Required Experience

· At least four years of B2B outbound sales or
business-development experience.

· A strong record of booking qualified meetings
with senior decision-makers.

· Experience selling technology, SaaS, consulting,
professional services, or business solutions.

· Previous responsibility for training, coaching,
or supervising salespeople.

· Excellent spoken and written English.

· A confident, professional telephone manner.

· Strong consultative selling and
objection-handling skills.

· Excellent organisation and follow-up discipline.

· Experience using a CRM to manage leads, calls,
notes, tasks, and opportunities.

· Ability to work independently and take
responsibility for results.

· Reliable internet, a quiet working environment,
and suitable calling equipment.

Preferred Experience

· Experience selling to UK organisations.

· Familiarity with CRM platforms such as Zoho CRM
or Salesforce.

· Experience with sales cadences, lead-enrichment
platforms, and structured outbound campaigns.

· Understanding of business systems, automation,
integrations, data quality, or operational improvement.

· Experience listening to recorded calls and
delivering structured coaching.

· Previous experience helping to build or improve
a sales process.

What Success Looks Like

· Consistently completing scheduled calls and
follow-ups.

· Having meaningful conversations with qualified
decision-makers.

· Booking meetings that meet the agreed
qualification standard.

· Maintaining complete and reliable CRM records.

· Improving conversion rates across the sales
process.

· Helping junior salespeople become more confident
and effective.

· Providing accurate forecasts and performance
reports.

· Representing the company professionally in every
interaction.

First 90 Days

During your first 90 days, you will be expected to:

· Learn our services, customers, qualification
criteria, and sales process.

· Begin making outbound calls and booking
qualified meetings.

· Demonstrate accurate and consistent use of our
CRM.

· Review junior representatives’ calls and provide
structured feedback.

· Introduce a practical coaching routine for the
sales team.

· Identify improvements to our scripts, follow-up
process, and reporting.

· Demonstrate measurable improvement in both
personal and team performance.

Candidate Profile

You are likely to succeed in this role if you are:

· Commercially aware and naturally curious about
how businesses operate.

· Comfortable speaking with senior business
leaders.

· Able to listen carefully instead of delivering a
rigid sales pitch.

· Resilient without being aggressive.

· Structured, dependable, and disciplined about
follow-up.

· Patient and constructive when training
less-experienced colleagues.

· Willing to be measured on both personal results
and team improvement.
