About the Role
As a Business Development Executive, you will play an important role in helping us identify and engage with new prospective customers.
This is a proactive, office-based sales role with a strong focus on telephone-based business development. You will spend a significant part of your day speaking with prospective customers, understanding their needs, introducing our services and creating opportunities for the wider sales team.
You'll receive training and support to develop your knowledge of our technology solutions and learn how to have effective business conversations with prospective customers.
This is not a role where we expect you to arrive as a finished salesperson. We are looking for someone with the potential to become one.
What You'll Be Doing
- Make outbound calls to prospective business customers and identify new opportunities.
- Engage confidently with prospects and establish rapport from the first conversation.
- Ask the right questions to understand a prospect's business needs and challenges.
- Introduce our technology and business solutions in a clear and professional way.
- Follow up on leads generated through marketing and other business development activities.
- Qualify opportunities and arrange appropriate next steps with the sales team.
- Build and maintain professional relationships with prospects and customers.
- Maintain accurate records of calls, conversations, opportunities and follow-ups in our CRM.
- Work towards agreed activity, appointment and business development targets.
- Participate in daily sales huddles, sharing activity, progress and achievements.
- Work closely with the sales and marketing teams to help generate and progress new business opportunities.
- Continuously develop your sales, communication and product knowledge.
What We're Looking For
We're looking for someone who is:
Confident and personable
You enjoy talking to people and can build rapport quickly and naturally.
Comfortable on the phone

Motivated by targets
You enjoy having clear goals and take satisfaction from achieving and exceeding them.
Ambitious
You're looking for more than just another job. You want to learn, develop and build a career in sales.
Resilient
Not every call will result in an opportunity. You can handle rejection professionally, stay positive and move on to the next conversation.
Curious and willing to learn
You don't need to be a technology expert. We'll help you develop that knowledge. What matters is that you're interested in learning and can explain things clearly to customers.
Organised
You understand the importance of following up, keeping accurate records and managing your opportunities properly.
Coachability
You are open to feedback, willing to learn from others and motivated to continually improve your performance.
