For the Competitive & Coachable – You bring the drive, we’ll give you the Playbook

Manchester | Immediate Start

Have you got the hunger to win, the discipline to learn, and the mindset to grow? Maybe you’ve just finished university, or you’re ready to take your first real step into sales and business development. Either way, if you thrive under pressure, love a challenge, and want a career that rewards performance — this is where you start.

At Playbook Direct, we believe that the qualities that make great athletes — resilience, focus, teamwork, and a student mentality — also make great business leaders. If you’ve ever pushed yourself past limits, bounced back from setbacks, or celebrated team wins, you’ll fit right in here.

The Role

As an Entry Level Business Development & Sales Representative, you’ll dive straight into a high-energy, performance-driven environment where effort = results. This isn’t just about sales — it’s about learning the strategies that fuel business growth, developing leadership skills, and building a career with no ceiling.

You’ll master our proven Playbook while working directly with some of the UK’s leading brands, learning by doing, and earning as you grow.

What You’ll Be Doing

  • Prospecting & Lead Generation – Learn how to identify new opportunities and connect with potential customers through face-to-face campaigns at events, pop-ups, and residential areas.
  • Customer Engagement – Be the face of our clients. Build genuine connections, listen actively, and present solutions with confidence.
  • Sales Execution – Own the full sales cycle. From first contact to closing deals, you’ll take responsibility for results — and enjoy uncapped earnings for your effort.
  • Campaign Development & Feedback – Contribute ideas, analyse performance, and help shape future strategies.
  • Teamwork & Collaboration – Train, share wins, and grow with ambitious teammates who’ll push you to be your best.
  • Leadership Exposure – Progress quickly into mentoring, project management, and leadership roles as you prove yourself.

What’s In It For You

  • Weekly OTE pay — consistent income plus uncapped commission opportunities.
  • Tailored training — sales, leadership, and communication, all from people who’ve been in your shoes.
  • 1:1 mentorship — direct coaching from senior leaders who started at entry level.
  • Career progression — clear pathways into leadership, client management, or business development.
  • Culture & community — team trips, networking events, and a supportive environment built on shared wins.
  • Motivated by competition and performance
  • A natural communicator who enjoys face-to-face interaction
  • Hungry for growth, responsibility, and recognition
  • Coachable, disciplined, and open to feedback
  • A team player who brings energy and accountability every day
