Stafford | Expected in the office four days per week
Key responsibilities
Research target businesses and contacts, then generate opportunities through proactive prospecting. Use cold outreach, LinkedIn Sales Navigator, tailored email, social engagement, nurturing and other touch points to build relationships, understand needs and secure qualified meetings.
Collaborate with the wider sales team on opportunity development, accurate pipeline records, handovers and follow-up. Success means meaningful conversations, quality opportunities and pipeline contribution, not simply call volumes.
Skills and experience
Bring curiosity, initiative and resilience, with confident written and verbal communication, strong organisation and a willingness to learn. Managed Services, IT Services, Professional Services or MSP experience is desirable, not essential. You’re motivated to build a long-term sales career.
Your pathway to Account Manager
Follow a clear development pathway towards an Account Manager role, building prospecting, relationship-building and commercial skills. Progression depends on your development and readiness, not a guaranteed promotion or fixed timetable.
