Main Purpose
This is more than just a sales role – it’s about helping businesses grow through skills, shaping career opportunities for the next generation, and being part of a forward-thinking training provider with a strong reputation in the sector.
Responsibilities
What you’ll be doing:
- Developing partnerships – building strong, long-term relationships with employers, understanding their workforce needs, and presenting training and apprenticeship solutions that add real value.
- Driving growth – achieving agreed sales targets by promoting a diverse portfolio of apprenticeships, skills programmes, and workforce development services.

- Managing your pipeline – maintaining regular, timely, and effective communication with prospects and customers, while keeping accurate records on the CRM system.

- Contributing to strategy – gathering market intelligence and sharing insights to support wider business planning and innovation.

A natural communicator who enjoys meeting people, asking the right questions, and creating solutions that work.
Self-motivated with excellent organisational skills and the ability to manage a busy schedule and personal sales pipeline.
Flexible, proactive, and happy to travel within the territory to meet the demands of the role.
What’s in it for you:
