New Business Telesales Team Leader

About Us

Johnson Controls, a global leader in thermal management, mission-critical building systems, energy efficiency, and decarbonization, helps customers use energy more productively, reduce carbon emissions, and operate with the precision and resilience required in rapidly expanding industries such as data centers, healthcare, pharmaceuticals, advanced manufacturing, and higher education.

For more than 140 years, Johnson Controls has delivered performance where it really matters. Backed by advanced technology, lifecycle services, and an industry-leading field organization, we elevate customer performance, turn goals into real-world results, and help move society forward.

The Role

We're looking for an enthusiastic and motivated New Business Telesales Team Leader to lead a high-performing telesales team focused on converting leads into new business opportunities and delivering tailored security solutions to customers.

This is an exciting opportunity for someone who enjoys developing people, driving sales performance, and making a real impact in a fast-paced environment.

As a New Business Telesales Team Leader, you will:

Lead & Inspire

  • Manage, motivate, and develop a team of telesales executives.
  • Drive performance against sales targets and KPIs.
  • Conduct regular 1:1s, performance reviews, and team meetings.
  • Monitor call quality, conversion rates, and pipeline activity.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
