Summary

Love picking up the phone and opening doors?

We’re looking for a confident, driven

Telesales & Lead Generation Executive to join a successful and growing B2B team.

This is a

proactive outbound calling role, focused on speaking to businesses, building relationships and identifying genuine sales opportunities. You’ll spend your day contacting prospective customers, engaging with decision-makers, asking the right questions and uncovering upcoming projects or requirements.

You won’t be expected to close the sale yourself. Your role is to create the opportunity, qualify the prospect and pass genuine leads to the experienced commercial team to take forward.

The Role

Your day will be focused on

outbound telesales, prospecting and lead generation. You’ll:

• Make approximately

30–50 outbound B2B calls each day

• Contact prospective customers and introduce the company’s services

• Research businesses and identify relevant contacts and decision-makers

• Speak with Buyers, Directors, Project Managers and Health & Safety professionals

• Build rapport and establish professional relationships over the phone

• Ask effective questions to uncover upcoming projects, requirements and opportunities

• Qualify prospects and identify genuine sales leads

• Generate enquiries and arrange meetings for the wider sales team

• Follow up previous conversations and nurture potential opportunities

• Maintain accurate CRM records and customer information

• Work closely with the quotes and coordination teams to ensure a smooth handover

What We’re Looking For

You don’t necessarily need years of experience. We’re looking for someone who is

comfortable on the phone, commercially minded and motivated by creating opportunities.

You’ll ideally have experience in:

• Telesales

• Outbound sales

• Lead generation

• Business development

• B2B sales

• Appointment setting

• Customer-facing sales environments

Most importantly, you’ll be someone who:

• Is

confident and engaging on the telephone

• Enjoys making outbound calls and speaking to new people

• Is comfortable with a

high-volume calling environment

• Can confidently engage with business decision-makers

• Has the ability to ask questions and uncover customer needs

• Is resilient and motivated by targets

• Is organised and good at managing follow-ups

• Understands the importance of

quality leads, not just call volume

• Enjoys the challenge of turning a cold conversation into a genuine opportunity

This is a great role for someone who enjoys the first stage of sales.

If you enjoy

picking up the phone, starting conversations, overcoming objections, finding out what a business needs and creating opportunities, this could be a great next step.

What You’ll Get in Return

•

24 days annual leave + 8 Bank Holidays

• Company pension

• Health benefits

• On-site canteen facilities

• Complimentary drinks and snacks

• Supportive team environment

• Monday–Friday working hours

• Opportunity to develop your career within an established and growing business

Telesales, Lead Generation or B2B Sales professional who enjoys making calls, building relationships and creating opportunities, we’d love to hear from you.
