Build your career with Citation Group

At Citation Group, we help UK businesses navigate the complicated parts of running a business.

  • Manage your own pipeline and CRM
  • Work with internal teams to maximise client opportunities
  • Achieve and exceed sales targets
Who we're looking for

You might already have experience in sales, account management, business development, telesales or another commercial customer-facing role.

We’re looking for someone who:

  • Enjoys building relationships and having commercial conversations
  • Is confident handling objections
  • Is motivated by targets and earning potential
  • Is naturally curious and good at uncovering customer needs
  • Can manage a pipeline and stay organised
  • Brings energy, ambition and a positive attitude
  • Wants to develop and progress their sales career
