Job description

Trainee SDR

Manchester City Centre | £26,500 Basic + Uncapped Commission | £40,000+ OTE

If you're an ambitious graduate or driven junior professional looking for a sales role with structured training and strong promotion opportunities, this could be worth a look.

We're recruiting for an established global business looking to add entry-level Commercial Executives (SDR) to its high-energy Manchester team.

The role

It's a fast-paced outbound sales environment where you will build your own pipeline, develop your phone-based prospecting skills, and build strong foundations in B2B sales with ongoing support and coaching.

The Commercial Executive package:

• Uncapped monthly commission + performance-based bonuses
• £26,500 basic with £40,000+ OTE in Year 1
• Structured sales training and ongoing development
• Clear career progression opportunities

You'll be responsible for:

• Executing cold outreach and prospecting across a range of UK businesses
• Building and managing your own sales pipeline using a leading CRM
• Engaging business owners and senior decision-makers and booking high-quality meetings
• Developing your sales skills through structured training and coaching
• Working towards individual and team targets

What we're looking for

We're looking for candidates where resilience, drive and high energy matter far more than previous sales experience.

You'll ideally have:

• High drive, determination, and strong intrinsic motivation
• A highly coachable mindset with a desire to learn and adapt quickly
• Confidence speaking to new people over the phone
• Resilience, tenacity, and comfort handling daily rejection
• Experience in hospitality, retail, customer service, recruitment or other target-driven environments is a major positive

Why consider it?

With uncapped earning potential, structured training and clear progression opportunities, this is a strong opportunity for someone looking to accelerate their sales career in Manchester.

Interested?

If you have the drive and want to launch your B2B commercial sales career, apply now for a conversation about the role.
