- Work towards weekly activity and pipeline targets.
- Partner closely with Account Executives on target accounts and outreach strategies.
- Learn from the team, review what’s working, and continuously sharpen your approach.
- Track your activity and pipeline using Salesforce and Outreach.
Skills and experience we value
- A positive attitude, strong work ethic, and drive to succeed.
- Someone who understands that success in sales comes from consistency and putting in the work every day.
- Confident on the phone and comfortable starting conversations with new people.
- Resilient, coachable, and motivated by goals and targets.
- A strong communicator who knows how to listen and build trust — this isn’t about the hard sell.
- Organised and comfortable taking ownership of your day.
What would make you really stand out
- 1-2 years of proven sales experience in a fast-paced, target-driven environment, whether that’s insurance, financial services, recruitment, SaaS, or other high-performance sales roles.
- Experience in B2B, SaaS, payroll, HRIS, or another fast-paced sales environment.
- A proven track record of booking meetings or achieving sales targets.
- Experience with Salesforce, Outreach, or similar sales tools.
