Business Development Executive

Business Development Representative / Sales Development Executive

Are you a highly motivated and money-driven individual looking to launch or advance your career in sales? Join a leading telecommunications company in Manchester as a Business Development Representative (BDR) or Sales Development Executive (SDE). We're looking for passionate individuals to join our growing team and help us capitalize on the booming telecom industry.

Why Comms?

The telecommunications industry is experiencing unprecedented growth, driven by remote work trends and the expansion of the 5G network. This makes it an ideal sector for new business development professionals. This role offers an exceptional opportunity to either start your sales career or leverage your existing experience in a dynamic and thriving market.

You'll be part of a successful and collaborative sales team, benefiting from a supportive office culture and a strong focus on professional development. We offer a comprehensive induction and ongoing training, with a clear career path to help you grow within the company.

The Role

As a BDR, your main goal is to generate qualified leads for an assigned Account Executive. You'll work with a target list of contacts and be responsible for setting up sales-qualified appointments, with a monthly target of 4 leads. With a fully uncapped commission structure, top performers have the potential to earn significantly more than the on-target earnings of 42,160.

You'll be partnered with an Account Executive from a major, "household name" vendor in the contact center and unified communications space. This is not a direct sales role in the first year, but a fantastic opportunity to gain invaluable insight into consultative sales by working closely with experienced professionals. We're expanding our team from two to six BDRs, and the top performer will have the opportunity to advance to a Team Manager position, offering a clear path for career progression.

Key Responsibilities & Skills

• Lead Generation: Provide qualified sales leads and appointments for your assigned Account Executive.
• Professionalism: Engage with key contacts at companies with 200 to 2,000 employees.
• Industry Knowledge: Continuously learn about our products in the telecommunications and unified communications industry.
• Performance: Meet and exceed sales KPIs and targets.

What We're Looking For

• Motivation: Genuinely interested in building a career in sales and highly money-motivated.
• Communication: Strong interpersonal and communication skills to build rapport with clients over the phone and email.
• Results-Oriented: A proven track record of meeting or exceeding sales targets is a plus.
• Experience (Not Essential): Previous experience in business-to-business (B2B) telesales, the telecom industry (e.g., a telecom reseller or IT MSP), or outbound calling is beneficial but not essential. We value a proactive and self-motivated approach to identifying new opportunities.
• Tech Savvy: Familiarity with CRM systems and Microsoft Office Suite.

Location: Manchester, UK

Salary: 28,000 basic salary + uncapped commission (OTE 42,160)
