You’ll be stepping into a warm and supportive environment where the groundwork has been laid, allowing you to focus on converting leads rather than generating them.

We offer a lead-driven sales process where there's no cold calling, as the marketing team takes care of lead generation, allowing you to focus on engaging with prospects and closing deals.

You'll join a young, friendly, and energetic team that fosters a supportive culture built on positivity, collaboration, and mutual appreciation—values that drive the business. Additionally, you'll work in our newly refurbished offices, featuring a modern, relaxing environment with dedicated chillout and lunch spaces.

As our company grows, so do your opportunities, providing a clear path for rapid career advancement into leadership roles.

• Proven success in consultative solution-based selling
• Strong verbal and numerical reasoning skills – able to present complex ideas clearly and persuasively
• Tech-savvy and quick to learn – able to grasp new concepts and keep up with the latest digital marketing trends
• A team player who is energised, a self-starter, and ambitious
• A results-driven mindset with a focus on achieving sales targets
• Based in or within reasonable commuting distance of Blackburn, Lancashire

What will your role look like?

• Professionally manage and convert inbound sales leads generated by the marketing team
• Follow the company’s proven sales process from initial contact through to closing
• Engage with prospective clients in a consultative manner, understanding their needs and aligning our services with their growth objectives
• Prepare and deliver tailored proposals and presentations that effectively communicate the value of our client’s solutions
• Collaborate closely with the senior leadership team to ensure your sales strategies align with the overall business objectives

What can you expect in return?

• Competitive base salary with a generous commission structure (OTE £40,000+)
• Opportunities for rapid career progression as our company expands
• Comprehensive training and ongoing support to equip you with the skills and knowledge needed to excel in your role and achieve your career goals.
• A chance to make a real impact within a small, high-performing team
• Regular team events, incentives, and a positive work environment
