Junior Account Manager

Job Description

Salary: £28,000-£33,000 basic per annum + uncapped commission

Responsibilities & Duties:

The core function of a Junior Account Manager is simple: grow, engage, and retain our existing customer base. You will play a key role in the Sales team and your efforts will contribute directly to the growth and retention of our corporate client portfolio.

Your responsibilities will include:

• Managing a portfolio of corporate client accounts, focusing on retention and growth through strategic engagement
• Conducting business reviews to understand client needs, showcase solutions, and identify upselling opportunities
• Managing the sales cycle from inquiry to close, ensuring quarterly revenue targets are met
• Navigating sales cycles with budget holders from L&D and HR departments
• Driving outbound sales activities to book client meetings and follow up on opportunities
• Taking full ownership of your account-based sales plan, producing enough outbound activity (phone, email, LinkedIn) to book a minimum of 20 client meetings per month
• Collaborating with the Marketing team to execute campaigns that increase client engagement and account growth.

Skills & Attributes:

If you have a mix of the following skills and attributes, you might be just who we’re looking for:

• 1+ year experience in a sales or a customer-facing role with a passion for sales, marketing, and community growth management
• A degree in a relevant subject is preferable, but not essential
• Strong communication skills, with the ability to work effectively with stakeholders at all levels
• Innovative mindset, with a love for testing new ideas and learning from experiments
• Ability to manage projects, prioritise tasks, and execute with attention to detail
• A team player that is ready to pitch in and help others: we’re a small but growing team –collaboration both within the sales team and with other departments is key to success
• Someone who deals with their admin and takes ownership of it: however de-energising this may be – you understand how vital our CRM system is, and you take follow-up seriously
• You have a growth mindset, and you are humble: you accept that things aren’t always perfect, and you look for solutions to help with continuous improvement across the business.
