Job description

Business Development Executive (Science / Lab / Technical)

£30,000 - £35,000 (60k First year OTE) + Industry Training + Uncapped Commission + Hybrid + Company Benefits + Progression

Newbury, Berkshire

Are you a Business Development Executive from a Technical/Scientific industry, looking for an opportunity to join a rapidly growing company that can offer continued career progression, industry specific training and an uncapped commission structure which is paid as 10% of gross profits?

On offer is the opportunity to join a rapidly expanding company that has huge plans for continued growth, specialising in supplying scientific equipment for the water treatment industry with an impressive product list. They have built a fantastic reputation in the industry and are looking to continue their success going forwards with the addition of a new member to their sales team.

In this hybrid role, you will be based in the Newbury office a few days per week. The majority of sales will be completed via cold calling, Teams meetings and email. You will sell a range of testing equipment for the water treatment industry with a focus on closed water systems, cooling towers, steam boilers or industrial water treatment. Prior or similar knowledge is not required but will be desirable. This role focuses on end‑to‑end sales and closing deals with new business. Products will be sold monthly, meaning that the uncapped commission will snowball lucratively due to reorders as well as initial sales with a proven earning potential of over £100k within a couple of years.

This role would suit a salesperson looking for a role split between winning new business and account management, where you will be selling into a technical industry with uncapped commission and the proven potential to earn over £100k annually.

The Role

• B2B internal sales
• Winning new business through calls, emails and Teams meetings
• Selling testing equipment into the industrial water treatment industry
• Monday to Friday
• Hybrid working
• Uncapped commission paid as 10% of gross profit

The Person

• Business to Business, end‑to‑end salesperson
• Experience selling technical or scientific products
