Business Development Executive

Role: Sales / Business Development Executive

Location: UK Remote

Working Arrangement: Fully Remote, with Quarterly Team Meet-Ups

Salary: £28,000 basic + commission (TBC)

Do you enjoy sales, speaking to new people and turning a cold conversation into a genuine business opportunity?

We're looking for a Sales / Business Development Executive to join a growing software company, helping to introduce its SaaS products to new customers and build lasting business relationships.

This is a great opportunity for someone who enjoys the challenge of winning new business, isn't afraid to pick up the phone and wants to work in a fully remote role with a supportive team.

You'll spend much of your time identifying potential customers, making outbound calls, sending emails and starting conversations with decision-makers. You'll need to be comfortable approaching people who haven't heard from you before and finding ways to get them interested in what the company has to offer.

You'll be responsible for researching prospective customers, identifying new opportunities and building a pipeline of potential business.

Once you've made contact, you'll work on understanding what the customer needs, explaining how the software could help and moving those conversations forward. Depending on the opportunity, this may also involve arranging or delivering product demonstrations.

You'll also keep track of your conversations, follow-ups and sales opportunities using a CRM system, making sure nothing gets missed along the way.

We're looking for someone with previous experience in sales, business development, lead generation or a similar customer-facing role. Experience selling SaaS or other software products would be particularly useful, although we'd also welcome applications from recent graduates with a relevant degree and an interest in starting a career in sales.

You'll need to be confident making cold calls, writing professional emails and handling objections. Not every conversation will lead somewhere, so you'll need to be comfortable with rejection and happy to keep trying.

Good communication skills, organisation and the ability to build relationships are important. You'll also need to be comfortable working towards targets and managing your own workload.

As this is a fully remote role, you'll have the flexibility to work from home while staying connected with the wider team. There will also be quarterly team meet-ups, giving everyone the chance to get together in person.

You'll be joining a team where you can develop your sales experience, learn more about SaaS products and play an active part in bringing new customers into the business.

If you enjoy finding new business, building relationships and the satisfaction of turning a cold lead into a customer, we'd love to hear from you.

We welcome diverse applicants and are dedicated to treating all applicants with dignity and respect, regardless of background.

All applicants are screened by an experienced, human recruiter – not AI.
