As businesses face rapid changes in the world of work, our team is here to help them adapt and thrive. By focusing on the core needs of efficiency, productivity, growth, and impact, our employees use their expertise to deliver real solutions through our People and Finance platform. This system, which covers finance, HR, payroll, and learning, helps businesses run more smoothly and make better decisions in real time.

With over 40 years of experience behind us, MHR’s track record as a high-performance organisation is built on clear goals, a shared vision, and strong communication - all of which we pass on to our customers. MHR is more than just a place to work; it's a platform for empowerment.

With us, you'll grow, find your flow, and make a lasting difference in your career, your team, and your impact.

Step into a high-impact role where you'll sharpen your consultative sales skills, deepen your expertise in the Payroll/HR and SaaS markets, and strengthen your ability to generate high-value pipeline across multiple outreach channels. This position offers the opportunity to work alongside senior sales leaders, leverage advanced prospecting technology, and build a strong foundation for long-term progression within enterprise sales.

Your Team: Join a collaborative, commercially driven New Business team focused on securing new-name opportunities across all sectors within the Public Sector. You'll work closely with Sales and Marketing, aligning on targeted account strategies, campaign execution, and pipeline growth. Together, you'll drive coordinated outreach efforts that fuel MHR’s continued success in the enterprise market.

Your Impact: You'll be at the forefront of pipeline creation, generating sales-qualified opportunities through strategic outbound outreach and intelligent use of tools like Salesforce, Groove, LinkedIn, and 6sense. By uncovering key prospect insights, engaging stakeholders at all levels, and contributing to multi-channel campaigns, you'll directly influence revenue growth and accelerate MHR’s expansion into new markets.

The role is contractually home-based; however, there is an expectation to attend on-site collaboration sessions on a weekly basis to support team engagement.
