Job Description

Location: Manchester, New Bailey

About the role

This is a desk‑based sales role focused on managing and growing a portfolio of mid‑market customers. You’ll own a defined account base of around 100 business customers, building strong relationships, identifying opportunities, and proactively selling BT solutions that help customers grow and operate more effectively.

This is a hands‑on, phone‑led sales role where success comes from strong engagement, consistent activity, and ownership of your pipeline and targets. You’ll work with customers end‑to‑end — from relationship building and active selling through to renewal, upsell, and ongoing account management.

Mid‑Market sits at a strategic sweet spot — large enough to sell meaningful, complex solutions, but agile enough to avoid enterprise‑level bureaucracy. You’ll have direct access to decision‑makers, faster sales cycles, and the opportunity to see real impact from the relationships you build.

You’ll be trusted to run your own accounts, supported by strong, visible leadership, regular coaching, and a team culture that values performance, resilience, and collaboration. This is an exciting opportunity to join a team at a pivotal stage of growth and transformation. You'll work alongside experienced sales professionals and contribute to shaping new ways of working, while leveraging innovative AI-enabled tools to enhance customer engagement and sales performance.
