Job description

Are you a commercially minded talent leader who understands what great sales performance actually looks like? Do you thrive in high-accountability environments where results matter, standards are high, and performance is measured in revenue — not activity?

A fast-growing, performance-driven media agency is looking for a Sales Training Manager to build and lead its internal talent engine.

This role combines full-cycle recruitment with structured sales training and onboarding, ensuring new hires become revenue-generating, client-ready performers as quickly and sustainably as possible.

This is a fully office-based role in London, working closely with leadership and the sales team daily. If you’re structured, commercially sharp, and passionate about building high-performing sales teams, this could be your next step.

• ✔️ Training new hires on prospecting frameworks, objection handling, CRM usage and client communication standards
• ✔️ Conducting live call training, shadowing and structured feedback sessions
• ✔️ Certifying new hires as “client-ready” before account ownership
• ✔️ Tracking performance metrics including time to first meeting, time to first deal and 90-day revenue
• ✔️ Driving retention, accountability and performance standards across the sales function

What You’ll Bring ✅

• ✨ Strong understanding of outbound, revenue-driven sales environments
• ✨ Commercial awareness and performance focus
• ✨ Highly organised, process-driven and structured mindset
• ✨ Confidence to hold high standards and make objective hiring decisions

Success in this role is measured by quality of hire, speed to productivity, revenue contribution and retention — not just hiring volume.
