Job description

Remote / Hybrid | Occasional travel to Peterborough

I’m working with a growing UK technology / connectivity business that is looking for an experienced Sales Team Lead / Sales Manager to come in and take ownership of a full sales team.

This is a proper leadership role

They’re not looking for someone to sit above the team, report the numbers and leave everyone to it

They want someone who can coach, challenge, motivate, improve performance and build a genuinely strong sales culture

What you’ll be doing

• Leading and managing the full sales team
• Driving individual and team performance against target
• Running regular 1:1s, coaching sessions and performance reviews
• Reviewing pipeline, conversion, activity and forecast
• Supporting the team on more complex opportunities
• Improving sales process, structure and consistency
• Creating clear accountability around targets and expectations
• Managing underperformance properly
• Supporting recruitment and onboarding as the team grows
• Working closely with senior leadership on commercial priorities
• Helping shape how the wider sales function develops

What they’re looking for

You’ll ideally have:

• Proven experience managing a sales team
• A strong track record of delivering against revenue targets
• Genuine coaching and people-development capability
• Experience managing both high performers and underperformers
• Strong pipeline and forecasting discipline
• A commercial, data-led mindset
• Confidence challenging people when needed
• A hands-on leadership style
• Strong communication and stakeholder-management skills
• The ability to work well in a fast-paced, evolving environment

Experience within telecommunications, connectivity, technology, utilities, managed services or another fast-paced B2B sales environment would be especially relevant.

The package

• Uncapped commission
• Remote / hybrid working
• Occasional travel to Peterborough

This would suit someone who genuinely enjoys developing people, improving performance and building strong sales teams, and wants to join a business where they can make a visible impact.
