The role
We’re recruiting a Junior Sales Executive for a growing business, suitable for someone early in their career or looking to break into professional sales for the first time.
This is a structured, entry-level role where you’ll be trained from the ground up. You’ll start in a trainee position, learning how the sales process works, building confidence speaking with customers, and supporting more experienced sales professionals. Over time, you’ll progress into a full sales and account management role.
Previous sales experience is helpful but not essential - attitude, communication skills, and willingness to learn matter more than background.
Responsibilities

- Supporting senior sales staff on live accounts
- Developing strong communication and relationship-building skills
- Working towards clear sales and development targets
Progression
There is a clear career path for people who perform well, with opportunities to progress into more senior sales and account management roles.
What’s on offer
- £30–40k basic salary
- Uncapped commission with realistic earning potential (£50k+ OTE)
- Full sales training and ongoing support
- Office-based initially, with hybrid working available longer term
- Long-term career development rather than a short-term sales role
About you
This role would suit:
- Graduates or school / college leavers
- Career changers looking to move into sales
- People from hospitality, retail, customer service, call centre, or sport
You should be:
- Confident communicating with people
- Professional and articulate
- Motivated by progression and earning potential
- Resilient and comfortable working towards targets
