Sunderland Tyne and Wear, United Kingdom Procuresmart Full time
Job Role: Business Solutions Manager/Business Development Manager

Office Based, SR1, City Centre, Sunderland

Weekdays only, 3pm Friday finish. No shifts.

Are you ready to embark on a thrilling journey in the world of tech and data-driven sales? We are a dynamic, future-focused start-up on a mission to disrupt our industry; and we’re seeking passionate individuals to join the sales force of the future.

At Procure Smart we believe in challenging the status quo. We are creating a future where our customers are delighted and the potential for our people is limitless. We specialise in procurement solutions for businesses in power, waste, water and renewables using the latest advancements to empower UK businesses to  get smart .

What will you be doing?

Your professional purpose will be to build and manage a portfolio of prospective B2B customers. The core of your role will be classic business development and generation. But, Procure Smart’s new approaches to business contract switching means you will be supported with new, data-led opportunities, genuinely attractive new products and bundle-selling approaches to maximise the value for your customers and the digits on your commission statement.

You’ll be selling the latest renewables technology, bundling multi-service B2B deals and given the entrepreneurial opportunity to grow your own customer base.

What we need from you:

We’re looking for exceptional sales professionals with a proven track record of performance and a disruptive mindset, ready for challenge and change in an industry where you’ve heard the same promises over and over.

But to really be our kind of Business Solutions Manager/BDM, you must have:
  • An exceptional work ethic. Disruption is achieved by excellent teams comprising driven individuals.
  • The ability to work smart as well as hard. We believe in results and output ahead of that old nine-to-five nonsense.
  • A willingness to drive change, an ability to adapt and an aspiration to thrive in a fresh way of working.
What’s in it for you:

We aim to break the mould. We are a forward thinking, disruptive influence within our sector, where the messaging elsewhere often sounds the same. So, we only want to hear from likeminded people craving improvement, ready to embrace the future.

  • Competitive basic salary.
  • Commission scheme equalling the market’s most generous.
  • Attractive benefits package.
  • City centre location.
  • A spot in a forward-thinking business with dynamic, agile, competitive leadership.
  • Supportive team culture, no “dog eat dog” in our world.
  • A range of different roles to allow progression and satisfy the most ambitious of people.
  • A chance to join an exciting start-up embedded in Sunderland’s city centre revolution.
The basics of the job:
  • Source a continuous stream of highly qualified leads and prospects.
  • Present, promote and explore different services for each customer.
  • Establish and build long-term relationships with prospects to ensure a continuous flow of strong revenue.
  • Overcome objections that might be suggested by prospective opportunities.
  • Work collaboratively with other teams to maximise commercial opportunities for yourself, your customer and the business.
  • Convert every potential customer into a sale.
  • Work towards determined sales revenue targets and other key performance indicators.

Maybe you’ve been in B2B switching, energy or a related industry and want to make it better. Or maybe you have not earned the rewards your sharp sales performance has deserved in another sector and want to hit the fast lane.

Either way, we would welcome an informal chat to determine whether you’re a good fit for the sales force of the future and to reveal a little taste of how we could be a  smart next step in your career.
