About the Company
Core Telecom is a fast-growing technology and communications network operating within the global telecoms industry. We help organisations improve customer engagement, automate processes, and drive revenue growth through smart use of data, messaging, and emerging technologies.
This is an exciting opportunity for a commercially minded individual who is keen to build a career in new business sales and be mentored as part of an experienced team.
The Role

This role is ideal for someone ambitious, confident, and motivated by results, who wants clear progression into a full sales or account management role.

It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
