Job description

Powering Great Work

We started as the place to find a trusted trade. Now, as we shape the future of home improvement, we're building the tech to transform that landscape for everyone - better products, smarter data, AI where it actually helps - so trades can spend less time on admin and consumers can find someone they trust, first time. That's Powering Great Work, and it's why every team here exists:

Trades spend less time on admin and more on winning work and growing their business

Homeowners get a trusted trade, first time, every time

We get to build products that change homes and lives across the country

The job, unfiltered:

• Have real conversations, not scripted ones: read the room and sell in the way that gets results, not the way that ticks a box.
• Close deals that mean something, helping a tradesperson grow their business or a homeowner find someone they can trust.
• Own a pipeline from first outreach to long-term account growth, and see the impact of your work end to end.
• Chase targets that matter, and keep going when a deal falls through, learning from it as you do.
• Back your team and be backed in return, with no faff and people who want to see everyone succeed.

The fit:

Wherever you are in your sales career, from SDR through to sales leadership, we want to hear from you if you bring:

• A track record of hitting (or exceeding) targets, whatever stage of your career that's been at.
• The knack for building relationships that last, from a cold first call to a long-term account.
• A consultative streak: you listen first, then sell the solution that actually fits.
• Steadiness and follow-through when a deal falls through.

Nice to have: experience selling SaaS, marketplace or subscription products. It's not a dealbreaker.

(Don't self-select out because you don't tick every box. We'd rather meet you.)

What you get

Competitive salary, annual bonus & equity scheme

Health, wellbeing and learning support

Gym membership, Smart Tech Scheme, Cycle Scheme

Birthday/special day leave, buy & sell holiday scheme

1 week's paid charity leave, and more

How this goes

• Screening call with one of our Talent Acquisition Partners
• Conversations with the hiring team once a role at your level opens up
