We’re the UK’s best-selling smart thermostat for heat pumps – and we're looking for an ambitious Sales Exec who is at an early stage of their career and is looking for a challenging role that allows them to grow.
At Homely we're on a mission to make heat pumps simple to install, own and maintain, and our smart tech helps installers, homes and the grid thrive in an all-electric future.
If you're hungry to help us build a company at the forefront of sustainability and love turning cold outreach into real customer partnerships then this one's for you.
The Role
You'll manage the full installer journey from first contact to active partner. That means building your own pipeline from scratch - researching target installers, running outreach, and converting interest into registrations - then staying close enough to make sure they're actually using the product.
This is a cold development role at its core. Some weeks you'll be working a sequence of outreach. Others you'll be on a stand at a trade show or visiting a merchant. You'll need to be comfortable doing both.
We're a small team that works hard and there's real room to grow with the business.
What You’ll Be Doing
- Researching and building target lists of heating installers who are actively fitting heat pumps
- Running outreach via email, LinkedIn, and phone to generate interest and drive registrations
- Attending trade shows, merchant events, and industry meetups to generate cold leads face to face
- Managing your pipeline from first touch through to active partner status
Onboarding
- Walking new installers through the product so they know how to fit it, sell it, and get support when they need it
- Keeping in regular contact with your installer base, checking on their pipeline and removing blockers
- Re‑engaging installers who have gone quiet with relevant updates, offers, or a simple phone call
- Logging all activity in the CRM and using it to stay on top of who needs attention and when
- Feeding back installer insights, questions, and on‑the‑ground experience to the wider team - this directly shapes how we improve our product and service
What We’re Looking For
- 1 to 3 years in a sales or business development role where you had to build your own pipeline from scratch
- Comfortable with the cold side of sales - you can write a prospecting sequence, make a cold call, and work a trade stand without needing a warm lead to get started
- Someone who sees registration as the start, not the finish - you want to know the installer is actually using the product
- Organised and on it: you manage your own time, keep the CRM up to date, and don't need chasing
- Good with people - you can hold your own talking to a heating engineer and write a decent follow‑up email
- Genuine interest in renewables or the green homes sector
- Experience selling into trades, construction, HVAC, or field services
- Familiarity with outreach or CRM tools such as Lemlist, HubSpot, or LinkedIn Sales Navigator
- Some knowledge of the heat pump market
Why Homely?
- Performance‑related bonus (total package up to £40,000 OTE, depending on experience)
- Hybrid: around 3 days/week in our Manchester office or out seeing clients (it will probably flex week to week)
- 25 days a year holiday
- Pension
