SaaS Business Development Representative (EdTech) in Taunton

We’re hiring a SaaS Business Development Representative (EdTech) in the Bath area. This is a full-time position (minimum 3 days in-office) with a salary of £30,000 – £35,000 + Commission.

Have 1+ year of sales experience and ready for your next step? Looking for a SaaS role where you’re trusted to think for yourself, shape your approach, and genuinely influence how a market is built?

Why this role is different:

• Focus on quality conversations with decision-makers.
• Work closely with sales, marketing, and leadership.
• Play a key role in launching a proven SaaS product into a new UK market.

Outbound prospecting is a key part of the role, but you’ll have the autonomy to test ideas, adapt your message, and build genuine conversations.
