Graduate Business Development Executive

GRADUATE BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT REPRESENTATIVE Tech Sector |

This isn't a script-reading, box-ticking phone job. Our client, a growing tech business, wants someone who can pick up the phone, hold a genuine conversation, and actually explain what the business does in a way that makes people want to keep talking. A real conversation, with someone bright enough to think on their feet.

This role will entail

• Calling and engaging new prospects, explaining the product/service clearly and confidently, no reading from a script
• Qualifying interest and booking meetings for the sales team, not just chasing call volume
• Building rapport quickly, asking good questions, listening, adapting your approach to whoever's on the other end of the line
• Logging activity and conversations properly in the CRM so nothing gets lost
• Learning the market and the product in real depth, not just enough to get through a call

Applicants must have:

• A degree, or equivalent skills and experience gained through work, this is about communication ability, not where or whether you studied
• 6 months to 2 years in a client-facing, phone-based, or commercial role and a flair for business development
• Genuinely articulate, able to hold a confident, conversation with someone senior individuals
• Curious and engaging
• Able to learn technical product quickly and explain it simply
