Our client, a leading fintech and procurement intelligence organisation, is hiring a junior Sales Development Representative to open doors with new prospects and support a growing sales team.

It is ideal if you have been in a target driven, customer facing sales role for around a year or more, such as tech retail or contact centre sales, and now want your first proper step into SaaS and B2B sales.

What you will do

• Run targeted outbound activity across phone, email and LinkedIn to book quality demos for the sales team
• Qualify inbound and outbound leads, understanding who is a good fit and what problems they are trying to solve
• Warm up opportunities for the BDMs by building rapport with stakeholders in Bid, Sales, BD and Procurement teams
• Follow simple, structured cadences and keep CRM notes, tasks and pipeline tidy and up to date
• Use modern sales tools such as HubSpot and Sales Navigator and share feedback on what messaging works

What we are looking for

• Around 12 months or more in a target or KPI driven, customer facing role. For example:
• Technical retail sales such as Carphone Warehouse, mobile networks, broadband or electronics
• Contact centre sales or upsell roles
• Junior SDR or BDR roles
• Comfortable working to targets and having numbers to hit, with some exposure to outbound calling or upselling
• Genuine interest in technology and SaaS. You are curious about how software solves problems for businesses and want to build a career in this space
• Clear, confident communicator on the phone and in writing, able to keep things simple for the customer
• Hungry to learn. You take feedback well, want to improve each month and enjoy being part of a supportive, high performing team
• Able to work hybrid from Birmingham, at least two days per week in the office

Why this is a great next step

• Progression. You will be working alongside an experienced senior hire with a clear path into more senior SDR or Account Executive roles as you grow
• Earnings you can influence. Demo linked commission with realistic targets plus additional bonus on closed deals
• Strong benefits package:
• Private Medical Insurance including virtual GP, dental, optical and mental health
• 25% gym discount
• Life Assurance at 4x salary and Pension at 5% employee and 4% employer
• 25 days holiday plus Bank Holidays and your birthday off
• EV scheme and Cycle to Work
• Charity giving matched up to £250 and 2 volunteering days per year, plus discretionary bonus after 6 months
• Culture. Hybrid working with regular in office days, internal knowledge shares and twice yearly whole company events
• Values and purpose. A values led environment built around Excellence, Integrity, Unity and Growth with a genuine focus on social value and community impact
