Smart sales, not slick sales.


Our client is growing fast – in people, in clients, in ambition. They run demand gen campaigns for well-known global brands, but they do it differently: with integrity, a tech edge, and a real appreciation that people – both clients and colleagues – are human beings, not machines.


Now they’re hiring an Account Executive to help them win new business and build long-term client relationships.


It’s a hands-on role. One where you’ll have the autonomy to shape your pipeline, drive opportunities forward, and own the full sales cycle. Ideal for someone who wants to be part of building something – not just selling someone else’s idea.


What you’ll be doing:

  • Winning new business – identifying, engaging, and converting prospects
  • Taking leads from cold to close via phone, email, social and events
  • Building your own pipeline with a mix of outbound and inbound sources
  • Managing relationships with existing accounts and identifying cross-sell/up-sell opportunities
  • Maintaining accurate CRM records and owning your activity
  • Representing the business at events and meetings
  • Becoming fluent in the company's solutions, value proposition, and industry space
What they’re looking for:
  • Experience in B2B sales (2-3+ years), ideally within lead gen or performance marketing
  • Comfortable speaking with senior marketing decision-makers
  • Knowledge of the demand gen landscape, with a grasp of metrics and multichannel strategies
  • Familiarity with tools like Pipedrive, Reply.io, and other sales enablement platforms
  • A self-starter mindset – this is a small business, so they need someone happy to roll their sleeves up and get stuck in
  • Driven, coachable, and accountable with strong communication skills
What’s on offer:
  • £40–50k base depending on experience
  • Uncapped OTE
  • Private medical
  • Statutory pension
  • Generous PTO + Birthday day off
  • Close-knit, friendly, and supportive team
  • A role where your life outside of work is respected
You won’t get everything handed to you here – but you will get trust, autonomy, and a real chance to grow with a team that values effort over ego. If that sounds like your kind of environment, let’s talk.
