Business Development Executive

You work in sales, you know how tough the job can be, but you love it. Spinning lots of different plates, opening doors, building a pipeline.

What will you be doing?

Let's not beat around the bush. This will be a door opening sales role. You'll be tasked with building new relationships with clients, to find the jobs for our Consultants to then go and fill them.

You ll want to be incentivised. That s one of the reasons your in sales isn t it!?! You will earn commission on the back of every placement made through a client that you have onboarded.

We offer hybrid working, with 2/3 days a week in our office in Quedgeley, Gloucester and the rest being able to be worked from home. We are ideally looking for someone full time, however if you are an experienced sales/business development professional looking for a part time role, it is still worth you picking up that phone!

So who are we?

Well, the business is 9 years old. Built on 20 years experience of recruiting in the insurance industry. We do alright. We are recognised in the industry, highly thought of, seriously connected and definitely one of the go-to agencies out there, despite our small size in comparison to the competition!

As a business, we very much believe it's quality over quantity.

You ll be the 4th person in the business. We are small but mighty.

We recruit right across the insurance sector. (It s more buoyant than you d think) as well as the commercial and industrial markets too.

What do you need to bring to the table?

Honestly, you HAVE to be a decent person and love business development and enjoy what you do.

Love the ups and downs, love the involvement you have with client s growth plans and the instrumental impact you have on a businesses growth.

You ll have to be a phone-first type of person too. You know what I mean, you see a job advertised or you get a hot lead and you ve done something with it, and you ve picked up the phone and had a conversation with somebody. Not just Yeah, I ve sent an email!

Oh, and a decent track record of winning new business in whatever area you have worked in before.

Anyway, if you ve got this far, and you think you'd fit in well, we should probably be setting up a chat. It will be about you, what you are looking for and if CKB Recruitment fits around that. Don t worry about not having a CV you don t need any of that to have a chat. Show us you re a phone-first sales person. Give Kieran Boyle (MD) a call.
