Are you an experienced B2B Sales leader? Perhaps you have been a Sales Manager, Business Development Manager, or similar.

Do you have experience working within the renewable energy sector, or an organisation that's focused on sustainability and/or environmental purposes? (ESG)

If the answer is YES to both questions, then I want to hear from you. Read on for more info (and if you're available for an ASAP start then even better!)

Location: Edinburgh, Hybrid - you should be prepared to travel to the London office on occasion and around the UK for exhibitions, trade shows, etc. to represent the organisation.

Salary: £75,000 plus performance related bonus

Benefits: private medical cover, life assurance cover, 25 days holiday (plus bank holidays), enhanced pension scheme and much more!

This is a brand new role to this organisation, who have a strong social purpose and mission to help the environment and address the climate crisis.

You'll be responsible for building out their sales function, bringing together a strategy for business development that encompasses lead generation, prospecting, account management, etc.

Currently a small sales team with aspirations to grow, you'll be reviewing the current ways of working and selling, and guiding the organisation on how to generate more income.

This is a consultative, relationship-based rather than a hard sell, so if you've worked in charities/non-profits or similar purposeful organisations this might ring true. Interested? Then apply today!
