One payment means easier finances, less time on the phone to suppliers, and less admin. It’s a game changer for 49,000 happy customers and counting, but don’t just take our word for it.

The B2C Sales Team

Our B2C Sales Team works across both OUB & Fused and is core to our ambitious growth plans. We’re planning to add new advisors to the team monthly. The team is responsible for acquiring new customers to the business and makes outbound calls to prospective customers with the aim of getting them signed up to an OUB/Fused package through objection handling, key discovery and accurate pitching.

What you’ll be doing

This is a phone based role, so you’ll spend a lot of the time speaking to potential or existing customers, representing OUB and Fused. Additionally, to be successful in this role, your admin and organisational skills need to be on point too, as you’ll have your own pipeline to manage, quotes to create and emails to send.

Depending on which sub-team you join, you may have slightly higher or lower KPIs due to the different lead sources and teams, so we’ve used the average across the three to give you an idea of what success looks like:

• 50 - 60 calls per day

• 3 hours of talk time per day

• Sales closed 2-3 per day

We’re looking for someone who is:

Target Driven: You’re motivated to work towards ambitious targets and KPIs.

Resilient: You can bounce back from difficult days or challenging calls and not let it affect your motivation. Even when faced with a high volume of 'no' answers, maintain your resilience and immediately focus on the next call.

Coachable: You’re open to feedback from call coaching, training, and check-ins, and proactively act upon these to improve.

Organised: Your admin skills are on point for managing your pipeline, creating deals, and responding to emails.

Autonomous: You’re capable of carrying out tasks independently, managing your own workload, and maintaining a strong pipeline to achieve KPIs.

What you’ll get from us

As well as all of the great perks listed below, here’s what you can expect to gain financially from this role…

💰 An annual salary of £27,976

🤑 Commission paid monthly when you hit your targets

💸 £2000 per year in bonuses paid to the full company if we achieve our shared objectives
