Job description

About The Company
A well-established, leading provider of specialist training and apprenticeships exclusively for the UK legal sector.
They work with law firms across England, helping them utilise government funding (Levy & Co-investment) for programmes like Paralegal, Solicitor (SQE), CILEX, Conveyancing, etc.

About The Role
This is a pure new business development role. The primary objective is to proactively generate sales of our government-funded legal apprenticeship programmes to law firms and other legal organisations. It involves the full sales cycle, from high-volume outbound prospecting to closing deals and hitting ambitious targets.

What You Need to Succeed

1. Proven Apprenticeship Sales Experience: This is the single most important requirement and primary focus. You will have demonstrably succeeded in selling government-funded apprenticeships previously. You will understand ESFA funding rules (Levy / Co-investment) compliance nuances, the specific sales cycle, common client objections related to apprenticeships, and how to navigate funding discussions.
2. Legal sector apprenticeship experience would be ideal; however, experience selling any Government funded apprenticeship is highly valuable.
3. A minimum of 2 years B2B sales experience. Experience selling services/solutions is preferred over physical products.
4. High volume outbound sales experience (high volume calls/email marketing). You must be comfortable, resilient and effective in this environment.
5. You will have a track record of meeting and exceeding sales targets.
6. You will be IT literate and proficient with CRM systems and MS Office.

What You'll Get in Return

1. Uncapped Commission - Genuine high earning potential for successful performers.
2. You will work for a Specialist Market Leader in the Legal Training Sector.
3. Supportive Team Culture - You will work with like-minded people who collaborate and celebrate each other's successes.
4. Strong basic salary & comprehensive benefits package (Healthcare, Pension, Generous Annual Leave).
