Sales Executive – Outbound (B2C) in Manchester

£32,000 Basic + Uncapped Commission (OTE £70,000+). Outbound, telephone-based sales only. This is not a field sales, face-to-face, or account management role; no site visits, no meetings, no in-person selling.

Overview

Accomplish Today is proud to be representing one of the UK's leading professional services organisations as it expands its high performing outbound sales division. You'll be working a consistent flow of pre-qualified professional referrals, closing new business by phone ideally within a single call. This is a senior level, telephone-based outbound sales role for an experienced closer. It is not suitable for candidates from field sales, face-to-face sales, retail, or door-to-door backgrounds. The entire sales cycle happens over the phone, and the ability to close efficiently within one or two calls is essential, not a stretch goal.

The Opportunity

Working exclusively with warm, pre-qualified professional referrals (not cold-call prospecting), you will engage prospective clients by phone, understand their requirements, and guide them through a consultative but fast-moving sales conversation, aiming to convert within a single call wherever possible.

Key Responsibilities

• Manage a consistent flow of outbound, pre-qualified professional referral leads by telephone.
• Conduct consultative sales conversations aimed at one-call close, minimising multi-touch sales cycles.
• Build credibility and trust with decision-makers quickly, over the phone only.
• Manage a pipeline of opportunities through to completion via telephone and email. No in-person meetings.
• Consistently achieve and exceed sales targets.
• Deliver an outstanding customer experience throughout a fast, phone-based sales journey.
• Work collaboratively within a high performing outbound sales team.

Essential Criteria

• Minimum 2 years experience in a telephone-based (not face-to-face or field) sales role.
• Proven ability to close new business within one or two calls, not a multi visit or relationship building over months sales cycle.
• Track record of working with referral based or warm lead pipelines, not solely self-generated cold outreach.
• Strong objection-handling and negotiation skills conducted entirely by phone.
• Stable employment history showing development and achievement within previous roles.
• Excellent telephone communication and rapport-building skills.
• Strong pipeline management and organisational ability.
