Job description

Based Southampton

Our client provides managed connectivity solutions to businesses across the UK. Their services include managed 4G and 5G connectivity, bonded internet solutions, business continuity, Starlink, managed Wi‑Fi and IP voice services. Due to continued success and expansion, they are now looking for an additional Sales Support & Junior Account Executive based from their office in Southampton.

You will work with business customers directly and through a network of channel partners, including telecoms providers, IT companies and managed service providers, supporting the day‑to‑day running and growth of both our direct customer and channel sales operations. The position combines quotation preparation, customer and partner communication, diary management, sales administration and the opportunity to develop your own accounts and close business.

We are looking for a bright, organised and commercially minded person who enjoys technology, understands how to use AI tools and wants to build a successful career in sales. We want someone who learns quickly, asks thoughtful questions and takes an interest in how our client’s solutions work. You should enjoy using technology and AI to solve problems and improve how work gets done, alongside being confident speaking with people and motivated to win business.

This is a full‑time, office‑based position, with direct coaching and support from the Sales Director and wider team.

Ideally, you will have around 12–24 months’ experience in sales support, internal sales, account management, business development or a customer‑facing commercial role.

Experience preparing quotations, handling business enquiries and using a CRM system would be particularly useful.

You should have practical experience using AI tools through work, study or personal projects. We would like to hear how you have used them to solve a problem, learn something or improve a task.

Experience in telecoms, connectivity, IT or managed services is an advantage, but full product training will be provided. We also value self‑taught technical skills, relevant qualifications and personal IT projects.

Career progression into account management, channel sales or business development is available, subject to performance and available opportunities.

Please note that due to the nature of our business we can only reply to those candidates who we feel have the exact, relevant experience for this role. Your covering letter and CV will help show your attention to detail and suitability for the role.
