Our blades are built to perform and are backed by fast turnaround times and expert support.

They’re hiring a tenacious and motivated Outbound Telesales Executive to join their sales team. This is a full-time, office-based role focused on proactively identifying and contacting new prospects via cold calls and outbound outreach.

• Confident, persuasive communicator with excellent listening skills
• Resilient and proactive with a target-driven mentality
• Comfortable discussing technical products in a clear, benefit-led way
• Strong organisational skills and the ability to manage time and workload effectively
• CRM experience (preferably Salesforce) is an advantage
