What You'll Do at Work
Most of your apprenticeship is spent working. You’ll learn on the job by getting hands-on experience.
Our client is seeking driven and goal-oriented business development apprentices to play a crucial role in expanding their customer base and driving sales. This role would suit anyone who has sold or marketed anything in the past, no matter how big or small, with the ability to speak with anyone and everyone to influence sales. This position will involve regular outbound sales phone calls, so it is not a position for someone who just wants to be given work. In reality, anyone interested should be motivated by closing and making sales, with the opportunity to make more money and commission once your skills develop during this apprenticeship.
Although this position is in the technology/digital sector, you do not have to be a computer whiz, but rather someone who is familiar with common digital technology. Currently, the UK technology sector is worth at least $1.2 trillion and growing, so for anyone looking to increase their salary through their verbal and persuasive skills, this is an opportunity to get a slice of this sector through realistic targets and via teamwork.
Key Responsibilities
- Conduct proactive research to identify potential customers in various industries
- Build and maintain a pipeline list to target
- Initiate outbound calls to potential prospects to introduce our products and services
- Qualify leads through strategic questioning to identify potential customers' telecoms requirements
- Meet and exceed monthly call and meetings booked targets
- Build relationships with potential customers, ensuring that interactions are positive
