Sharing market insight and prospect feedback to support continuous improvement across the sales function

Proven telesales or B2B outbound sales experience is essential

Comfortable working to targets and KPIs with a strong personal drive to exceed them

Able to sell consultatively by asking the right questions, listening carefully, and tailoring your approach

Confident and articulate communicator who can speak credibly with business owners and senior stakeholders
