Healthcare Today is one of the UK's leading news brands for healthcare professionals, and we're looking for a Sales Executive. The pipeline doesn't fill itself. But the flip side is, every account you bring in is yours, and your commission will reflect that.
About You
- Confident on the phone. Cold calling is part of the day and won't be going away.
- A genuinely good writer. The best cold emails read like a human wrote them. We can teach you healthcare. We can't teach you to write.
- Coachable. You'll be trained on the products, the audience and how we sell.
- Resilient. In the first few weeks of any sales role, you'll hear no a lot more than yes.
- Organised. Pipeline discipline is the difference between a good month and a great one.
Helpful but not essential:
- Any commercial or customer-facing experience (retail, hospitality, internships)
- An interest in healthcare or media
- Familiarity with LinkedIn for prospecting
What you'll get
- Starting salary of £26K with clear progression opportunities
- Uncapped, performance-based commission
- Private medical insurance contribution
- MacBook, iPhone and AirPods
- Catered lunch 4 days a week
- Weekly 1:1s and real ownership of your accounts from day one
- 20 days holiday (+ 8 bank holidays) and + 1 day for each year you’re with us (up to 25).
The Setup
Full-time, office-based in Ashford, Kent. You'll need to be able to get to the office reliably each working day, so being local to Ashford or having a sensible commute matters.
