About us
Carebot UK brings service robots into the places that need them most. We are the UK distributor for Pudu Robotics, LimX Dynamics and Reeman, and we put robots to work in care homes, hospitals, hotels, restaurants and warehouses.
Our robots carry meals, linen, supplies and goods, so people can spend more time on the work that needs a person. We're a young business backed by experienced founders, and we're building our sales team from the ground up.
The role
You'll own the journey from first conversation to signed deal.
Leads come in through our website and call centre. You pick them up fast, qualify them, and get the right people into a demo, at our Northfleet showroom or on their site. Then you follow through: quotations, follow-ups, objections, proposals and close.
You won't be doing it alone. Management will work alongside you on negotiation, pricing and proposals for bigger deals. What we need from you is the drive to keep every lead moving and the persistence to get meetings in the diary.
This role suits two kinds of people equally well:
- Starting out: you have no sales experience yet, but you have real hustle and want to learn B2B sales properly, with hands-on coaching.
- Experienced: you've sold before, in any sector, and want an uncapped, high-growth product to get behind.
What you'll do
- Respond to every inbound lead from the website and call centre within one working day
- Qualify leads by understanding the site, the task, the decision-maker and the budget
- Book and run product demonstrations at our showroom and on client sites
- Prepare quotations, and with management's support, proposals and business cases
- Follow up consistently until each deal is won or clearly lost
- Negotiate and close, bringing in management for pricing and contract terms
- Keep the CRM up to date: every lead, every call, every next step
- Pass customer feedback to the team so we keep improving our offer
- Represent Carebot at trade shows such as the Care Show and logistics and hospitality events
What we’re looking for
- A full UK driving licence and the right to work in the UK
- Clear, confident spoken and written English
- Evidence of drive and persistence, such as hitting targets in a previous job, building something yourself, competitive sport, fundraising, or a role where you had to chase results
- Comfortable picking up the phone and talking to people you don't know
- Organised enough to manage many conversations at once without dropping any
Nice to have
- Experience in sales, business development, telesales or account management
- Experience selling to care homes, healthcare, hospitality, facilities or logistics
- Familiarity with a CRM such as HubSpot, Pipedrive or Salesforce
- An interest in technology and robotics (we'll teach you the product)
What you'll get
- Full product training and hands-on sales coaching from the founders
- Real responsibility from day one, and a seat at the start of a fast-growing company
- A clear route to senior sales or account management as the team grows
- Company laptop and mobile phone, plus a mileage allowance for business travel
