DIGITAL SCIENTISTS® is looking for an ambitious hunter salesperson to generate new recurring business across digital transformation, AI, automation, web development, SEO and digital growth services.
This is not a conventional sales role where your commission resets every year and the value you created is forgotten.
We offer a genuinely compounding commission structure where the successful business you personally generate can continue contributing towards your earnings year after year.
If you're tired of not being recognised for your long-term value, this is the role for you. Your successes remain yours for years to come.
The opportunity
You will identify, develop and close new B2B opportunities with business owners, managing directors, marketing teams and senior decision-makers.
This is a true hunter role for someone who enjoys opening doors, creating their own pipeline, understanding commercial challenges and winning valuable recurring contracts.
You will sell solutions that help organisations accelerate growth, improve customer experience and streamline their operations.
Commission that continues to reward success
Most sales roles reward a contract once before resetting targets and commission. Our structure works differently.
Qualifying revenue from customers you personally secure will remain within your recurring commission portfolio where:
The customer remains active
Qualifying revenue continues to be collected
You remain employed by DIGITAL SCIENTISTS®
You continue delivering against a very achievable new-business target
A successful month is not forgotten once the initial commission is paid. It can continue contributing towards your earnings alongside every qualifying success that follows.
There is no fixed commission ceiling; every win layers on top of your previous successes.
Quarterly commission rates
We assess performance quarterly because we understand sales do not arrive consistently every month.
Your quarterly results determine the commission percentage applied retrospectively to qualifying revenue collected during that quarter from your approved commission portfolio, including eligible customers secured in previous periods.
- Little or no meaningful new business: 0%
- Materially below target: 2%
- Close to target: 4%
- Target achieved or exceeded: 6%
The stronger your performance, the more valuable your recurring commission portfolio becomes.
We will also not adjust or increase your target as you succeed (aside from inflationary adjustments).
Your earnings will compound
A successful salesperson could build approximately £25,000 of recurring annual commission value during a strong year. We're providing an indicative figure - but in reality the most committed and successful sales performers will exceed our ranges.
Repeating that level of performance could create the following indicative earnings run-rate:
End of Year 1: approximately £67,000
End of Year 2: approximately £92,000
End of Year 3: approximately £117,000
Each successful year can add another layer of recurring commission rather than resetting your earnings to zero. You are being uniquely rewarded for your continued loyalty to the business.
DIGITAL SCIENTISTS ® have an industry-leading retention rate; 95% of the customers who joined us over the last five years are still working with us today.
Actual earnings paid during each year will depend on when contracts are secured, customer payments, retention and the commission band achieved. This ensures a strong commercial approach between the sales and delivery teams.
A strong month or quarter may look like:
Several new retained contracts (billing thousands of pounds each per month)
A larger digital transformation engagement (at a fixed cost of delivery)
A major Zoho or automation project (either on a retainer or hourly rate delivery which is calculated towards your quarter's commission)
A substantial consultancy agreement, with eligible collected revenue contributing towards commission throughout the approved contract period
The occasional one-off project opportunity you may come across that adds value to your figures
Winning substantially above the benchmark can accelerate your commission portfolio and increase earnings in future years. If you work hard, you benefit long-term.
For a successful salesperson, the opportunity could provide:
Year 1 earnings of £55,000 to £67,000+
Year 2 earnings of £85,000 to £92,000+
Year 3 earnings of £100,000 to £117,000+
Exceptional performers may earn materially more.
Confirmed Year 1 KPI bonus
We recognise that joining a new business involves learning the services, building a pipeline and progressing opportunities through a natural sales cycle.
To make Year 1 competitive while your recurring commission portfolio develops, the role includes a dedicated first-year KPI bonus:
Core annual target achieved: £5,000
The bonus is subject to qualifying business being commercially acceptable, active and meeting the relevant payment and retention requirements.
Transparent commission tracking
You will have access to a live CRM dashboard showing:
Your present commission percentage
Provisional commission accrued
Commission due to be paid
Your distance from the next band
The financial value of reaching that band
Qualifying recurring revenue generated
Commission approved and paid
The total value of your commission portfolio
You will be able to see clearly what you have created, what you are earning and what your next success could unlock.
What you will be selling
- AI and digital transformation
- Zoho implementation and development
- Business process automation
- CRM and customer service systems
- Operational workflow improvement
- Website design and development
- SEO and digital marketing
- Conversion tracking and user experience
- Retained digital consultancy and support
You will be supported by an experienced consultancy, technical and delivery team capable of turning well-qualified opportunities into successful long-term customer relationships.
Your responsibilities
You will:
- Build and manage your own B2B pipeline
- Identify suitable organisations and decision-makers
- Create outbound opportunities across appropriate channels
- Conduct discovery calls
- Understand commercial and operational challenges
- Present appropriate solutions
- Prepare and progress proposals
- Negotiate and close recurring contracts
- Maintain accurate CRM records
- Provide reliable forecasts
- Work closely with consultancy and delivery teams
- Identify and close further qualifying opportunities
- Maintain a consistent focus on generating new business
What we are looking for
You will be a proactive hunter salesperson who can create opportunities rather than relying on an established account base.
You should demonstrate:
- Successful B2B new-business sales experience
- Strong outbound prospecting and pipeline-development skills
- Confidence speaking with senior decision-makers
- Experience selling digital services, technology, consultancy, SaaS or professional services
- Strong discovery, presentation and negotiation skills
- The ability to understand complex business challenges
- A record of progressing and closing opportunities
- Accurate CRM use and forecasting
- Strong commercial judgement
- Clear written and verbal communication
- A focus on sustainable, commercially suitable customers
- Experience in digital agencies, Zoho, CRM, automation, SaaS, managed services or technology consultancy would be particularly valuable.
This is not an account-management role. Applicants should have a demonstrable background in proactive new-business generation and hunter-led B2B sales.
Your first three months
This is a results-focused role with a clear three-month probation period.
During your initial mobilisation, you will be expected to:
- Learn the DIGITAL SCIENTISTS® service portfolio
- Understand our target customers and propositions
- Build a credible prospecting plan with the support of the company owner
- Progress opportunities towards proposal and close
- Provide clear evidence of your ability to generate new business
You will receive extensive support from the senior team but the role requires initiative, pace and accountability.
Why join DIGITAL SCIENTISTS®?
This opportunity is designed to reward people who create genuine long-term value.
You are not simply receiving a one-off payment for making a sale. You are building a recurring commission portfolio that can become increasingly valuable over time.
The structure rewards:
- Consistent new-business performance
- High-quality customer acquisition
- Above-target achievement
- Loyalty and continued service
- Sustainable commercial growth
For the right salesperson, this could become one of the most rewarding long-term opportunities available within a growing digital consultancy.
