The company:

Providing organisations with the 4-I pillar (information; insight; ideas and inspiration) to empower property professionals with the knowledge, tools and network they need to build and sustain fantastic businesses doing great work.

What will you be doing?

This is a new role reporting into the Senior Team. The main purpose of the role is to develop new business through identifying suitable business owners and leaders who will be a suitable addition to the group, encouraging them to come and experience a Group for themselves, and then to get them signed up as a member. Every interaction should be friendly, positive and enthusiastic in order to build rapport.

You will be responsible for:

• Developing and maintaining a customer database of current and past contacts, and potential contacts, and keeping this up to date
• Identifying, building and nurturing your own pipeline of business owners and leaders as prospective members
• Following up by telephone all contacts who have received written communications from us, or who have expressed an interest in membership
• Writing clear, engaging and accurate follow up emails to prospects
• Collaborating with the other members of the team to ensure a seamless customer journey for prospects from initial contact to onboarding
• Developing your own ideas and suggestions as to how we can increase engagement with the wider industry
• Providing a professional, effective and friendly sales function for the group, ensuring that all contacts have a positive impression of the companies
• Meeting weekly with the Commercial Director to review figures, targets and achievements
• Managing the Marketing spend in line with the budget.

What are you all about?

• You have solid experience selling to senior decision-makers in small – medium sized businesses
• You are positive and enthusiastic and set high expectations for yourself, demonstrating initiative and common sense
• You are a team player but also self-motivated when working alone
• You are able to think of new ideas and best practice to enhance your role and increase success, and are willing to share these with the team for communal benefit
• You inspire confidence through your interactions, and you fulfil expectations
• You enjoy opportunities to grow your personal and business skills.

What can we offer you?

• 25 days’ holiday per year – we work on trust so if you can count to 25, that’s good enough for us!
• Birthday off – if your birthday falls on a weekend you can choose the Monday or the Friday instead
• Flexible working hours – you’re contracted to 37.5 hours per week. The bulk of this will need to be done within traditional working hours due to the nature of the role but if you need to go to the dentist, take the kids to school, or just fancy a quick coffee with a friend, no problem
• Book allowance – we love to read and hope you do too. Please feel free to buy a book a month on us
• Regular team get togethers. We all work remotely so it’s nice to catch up in person at least once a month
• Learning and development is literally what we do so we will encourage your own development and growth
• Being part of our extended growth plans from the outset.

Please either apply by clicking online or emailing me directly to [emailprotected] For further information please call me on 01244 567 963 I can make myself available outside of normal working hours to suit from 7am until 10pm.
