The Role

This is a sales-focused role, not a traditional customer service position. The successful candidate will be responsible for responding rapidly to new enquiries, generating opportunities, nurturing prospects and converting enquiries into booked appointments.

Working closely with the wider team, you will play a key role in ensuring no opportunity is missed, maximising lead conversion and supporting continued business growth.

· Contact inbound leads promptly and professionally

· Qualify enquiries and gather relevant information

· Convert enquiries into booked appointments

· Follow up on uncontacted and unconverted enquiries

· Re-engage dormant and previously unconverted leads

· Make outbound calls to generate new business opportunities

· Support lead follow-up and customer nurturing

· Maintain and update CRM records accurately

· Track lead activity, follow-ups and appointment conversion performance

· Build strong relationships with prospective customers

· Follow established processes and scripts where appropriate

· Deliver a professional and positive customer experience at all times

· Work closely with the wider team to ensure no opportunities are missed

· Provide feedback on customer trends, objections and opportunities

· Use initiative to manage workload and prioritise high-value opportunities

Requirements

Essential

· Minimum 5 years' experience in lead generation, telesales, appointment setting, business development or a similar sales-focused role
