U

London (Farringdon) | Full-time, 4 days in the office, 1 from home | £dependent on experience + uncapped commission

Got some sales experience under your belt and ready to sell something with real substance?

Picture speaking to CFOs, treasurers, bankers and fintech founders every day, then meeting them face to face at conferences in Singapore, Geneva and Dubai, all within your first year.

We're working with a fast-growing media, events and trade finance group at the centre of global trade. They run international conferences for the people who finance the world's commodities, and their sister business lends to importers, exporters and traders. Sales is expanding and they're hiring two people to grow with it.

Is this you?

You've already done some selling. Maybe a year or so as an SDR or BDR, in telesales, conference or delegate sales, sponsorship, recruitment, or a commission-based role during or after uni. You've worked to targets, you know your numbers, and you're ready for a step up where you can learn properly, earn well and build a career in B2B sales.

You don't need to know anything about trade finance. They'll teach you that.

What you'll be doing

  • Selling delegate tickets to three flagship international conferences
  • Running high-volume outbound: calls, personalised emails and LinkedIn
  • Building relationships with senior finance leaders, banks, funds and fintechs
  • Spotting businesses that need working capital and passing warm leads to the lending team
  • Travelling to the events, meeting delegates in person and building next year's pipeline

What you'll bring

  • Hands-on outbound sales experience, ideally six months to two years, where you've been measured on targets
  • Confidence picking up the phone and holding a conversation with senior people
  • Resilience: you hear "no" and pick up the next call
  • A competitive streak and genuine motivation from commission

Nice to have

  • A degree, especially in business, finance or economics
  • CRM experience
  • An interest in commodities, global trade or finance
  • Languages useful in Asia or the Middle East

What's in it for you

  • Structured training in outbound sales and trade finance
  • International travel to Singapore, Geneva and Dubai
  • Direct access to the owners and senior figures across global trade
  • A clear path to progress as the sales team grows
