Sales Development Representative

We have several fantastic opportunities for Junior and experienced Sales Development Representatives with 12-18 months’ experience in a sales or 360 recruitment position to join a fast growing organisation with huge growth opportunities.

Salary: Junior SDR £25k – SDR £26k–£27k (base)

Realistic commission (first year): £5,000–£10,000

Position:

Phone-led outbound role — own daily outreach, start meaningful conversations with senior buyers and book high-quality meetings for WHAM clients.

Key responsibilities

* Make high-volume, high-quality outbound calls and follow-ups to senior decision makers (MDs, Heads of Marketing, etc.).

* Qualify prospects against client criteria and book meetings that convert.

* Keep accurate, timely records in Salesforce (pipeline updates, call notes, next steps).

* Hit activity and conversion KPIs (dials, talk time, meetings booked, conversion %).

* Work with Data/Analytics and Delivery to ensure prospects are correctly targeted and handed over.

* Take coaching, iterate quickly and own personal development through WHAM training.

* Contribute to process improvements — share what’s working and help refine scripts, cadences and ICPs.

Who we’re looking for:

Culture fit

* A proper team player — easy to get on with, invested in the team’s success and comfortable working in a relaxed, collaborative environment.

* Positive, dependable and willing to muck in; takes feedback well.

Style of selling

* Consultative, not telecoms. Emotional selling: asks open questions, uncovers pain and sells outcomes rather than features.

* Builds rapport quickly, shows empathy and steers conversations from curiosity to a booked meeting.

Experience & skills

* 12-18 months’ experience in sales or 360 recruitment position (preferred). We hire for attitude first, but this level of exposure is helpful.

* Comfortable on the phone and resilient to rejection.

* Coachable, curious about business and commercially aware.

* Good written and verbal communication; organised; strong time management.

* Experience with Salesforce or another CRM is a bonus.

Progression & training

* Structured on-the-job training.

* Clear progression to Senior Sales Rep / Account Manager based on activity, conversion, CRM proficiency and commercial behaviour.

KPIs / success measures

* Weekly/monthly meetings booked.

* Conversion rate from meeting to qualified opportunity.

* Talk time / dials / contact rate.

* CRM hygiene (timely notes, next steps).

Benefits

* Competitive base and the realistic commission above (£5k–£10k first year).

* Uncapped commission.

* Training, progression and a collaborative team culture.

* Standard benefits (wellbeing support, private healthcare options, flexible leave)
