We’re seeking candidates with proven experience pitching and closing sales on a B2B basis by phone, who would be happy working in an outbound sales role at a leading insurance broker. This is not an account management position, the onus is on new clients initially with retention managed by other team members, and if you would not be happy working in a vibrant sales office then this really isn’t going to be the role for you. The organisation we’re working with is a specialist broker, and are rarely beaten on policy price. What they need is talented, motivated, professional salespeople to generate opportunities within new businesses. The great thing about this product is you are trying to save people money, and Insurance is something all businesses legally have to have, it’s not a new or strange concept, and it’s not something adversely affected by market conditions. To the contrary, when the market is bad people look to save money, and reduced insurance rates are a way to achieve that. Yes this is financial services but this is not a super corporate environment, yes they dress smart, yes they work hard. But they also have a great staff benefit ethos, and cool offices kitted out with top of the range screens, chairs, equipment and large TV screens for sports events. The General duties of this role include but are not limited to:
  • Working on warm sales leads generated by a closely linked telemarketing team
  • Broking insurance products for prospective clients
  • Retaining repeat business through excellent service standards
A strong salesperson will absolutely thrive within the business. Given the ambitious yet realistic expansion plans, longer-term progression opportunities may also be available to the right candidate. Commission within this role is uncapped and is aimed at rewarding the hard work and dedication of every employee. Our client will also pay for your education to become Cert CII qualified and bonuses are paid on completion of this. Approximate commutable locations for this opportunity are Bedford, Luton, Milton Keynes, Stevenage, Cambridge, St Neots, Huntingdon, Welwyn Garden City and the surrounding areas. Zero Surplus is East Anglia’s premier sales recruitment specialist, based just outside Cambridge we source business development staff for small and international Insurance & Financial Services businesses across Bedfordshire and the East of England. For registration purposes please could you let us know where you are currently based or which locations you are considering as well as your required salary and notice period.

You love working in sales because you get paid for the effort you put in! It’s hard work, finding the motivation each day to ‘be your best’ but when you're good at it, there's not a more rewarding sector to work in…UNLESS your employer pays rubbish commission and bonus packages! Or maybe the product you're selling is no good, and no matter how great you are at pitching and closing, you just can't hit the numbers to put that deposit on a house, car or pay off your debt. Perhaps you were made redundant and like the idea of switching into software, one of the fastest growing sectors in the world.  Any of this ring true? If so, our client offers a fast-paced, high energy working environment in which to take your sales career to the next level – though experience within SaaS and cloud-based technology is preferred, this role will also suit any sales hungry candidate looking to achieve high earnings and career progression. Reporting to the Sales Manager, your focus will be on creating new business opportunities by outbound calling leads generated for you by the marketing team, engaging with the prospect and understanding business needs, then closing new opportunities. You will research organisations and identify senior-level prospects (CTO, CIO, CISO, DPO etc), establish rapport and build a narrative around IT security solutions you can offer. You must have a professional attitude with strong written and verbal communication skills, have a consultative approach, be able to engage in dialogue with C-level prospects and be passionate about how technology is impacting the future. You will have an enthusiastic nature, a sense of ownership and pride – and a desire to learn and grow your knowledge within Cloud Applications, SaaS, IaaS, Firewall and Web Security (though specific experience in these technologies is not required). This role and career is not for wannabe sales people or candidates that aren’t convinced of their own skill sets – only the best need apply. In return you will be afforded a generous base salary, excellent commission structure to help you achieve in excess of £40,000 OTE and the reassurance of working in a growing industry sector. If this sounds like you, please apply today.

We’re working with one of Cambridge’s leading marketing agencies on business development role, the position can be either full time or part time with some home working though they would ideally want somebody in the office 3 days a week if possible once the current situation permits. Candidates must be available to start before Christmas or in January at the very latest. Given the nature of their products and services applicants must have 2/3 years’ experience selling media, marketing, data or publishing services, ideally to large corporate businesses across the UK. They have a roster of fantastic brands already signed up and using them, so there are some interesting project case studies the successful salesperson can use to generate opportunities. They also have a wide range of services to offer as well so candidates must be capable and intelligent consultative salespeople, with the ability to learn and discuss complex options. As this is a services organisation this is not a hard selling role, and they need somebody that can seek out an opportunity for them to present their work, and get a meeting where other people will be involved in the overall process. There will be a real mix in the duties from some marketing, networking at business events etc, talking with existing and previous clients. However candidates must be comfortable cold calling B2B on a regular basis, as this will make up a large proportion of the role. They need a candidate that is not afraid of the phone, and happy to take a role where the ‘sale’ is getting an opportunity for further communication as opposed to just a quick buck. And for the right person there’s a real long term career opportunity. Due to the location of the role this position is suitable for candidates commuting from Cambridge, Sawston, Haverhill, Norwich, Peterborough, Huntingdon, Bury St Edmunds, Newmarket, Royton and St Neots.
