Great sales opportunities start with the right organisation, the right people and a reason to connect. As our Lead Generation Coordinator, you will bring those pieces together. Through focused research, accurate data and thoughtful digital outreach, you will help our sales team spend more time speaking to organisations that could genuinely benefit from what we do.

Location – Hybrid Bristol
Our headquarters is in the Bristol area. We offer a mix of home and office working because we believe both are necessary for a high performing team. We know you need some time to concentrate and avoid constant commuting, so homeworking is essential, but we also feel face-to-face time is important too. We work in a Hybrid way with ideally 2/3 days per week in the office and the rest of the week worked remotely. We currently have main offices in the UK in Bristol and in Europe in Berlin.
