Still stuck earning average money, with zero development, even less excitement, and a ‘maybe one-day’ path to progression?

Yeah, here’s a better idea…

What You’ll Be Doing:

Imagine earning like an entrepreneur, with the financial freedom, excitement, and control, without starting your own business.

Here, you’ll immediately become part of the senior leadership team with a clear path to Sales Director within 2–5 years.

As the founder put it: “You will be the future of this business.”

Need proof?

Sana, now Head of Marketing, joined with no experience. Within 18 months, she’s stepping into a COO role, holds equity, and co-runs other ventures with the founder.

Her personal and professional growth skyrocketed.

She now has full control, agency, and a clear path to financial freedom.

That’s what’s on offer for you.

You’ll join as a Business Development Manager and build the B2B sales function from scratch.

Earn up to 25% on all business with accelerators and hit £70k OTE in year one.

Help scale the business, and earn up to 5% equity within five years.

The company hit 7 figures last year without a sales team.

Deliver even half of that, and you’re on track for six-figure earnings.

Sell well, and you’ll earn like a Sales Director before you’ve got the title.

You’re not building alone. The founder is in your corner.

He’s hands-on, knows the product inside out, comes from sales, and is committed to helping you succeed.

You’ll grow fast, learning sales, leadership, product, and scale-up strategy from someone who’s done it.

These skills will set you up for a life of wealth and success.

You’ll also have a £3k–£6k annual training budget.

From sales coaching to public speaking, you’ll be backed to grow.

You’ll shape the entire B2B function: strategy, systems, processes, and team.

No red tape. No legacy problems. Just a clean slate and full autonomy.

No micromanagement, just trust, clear goals, and freedom to take bold action.

Got a crazy idea? Try it. All your ideas are on the table.

You’ll sell into automotive and industrial sectors nationally, targeting end users and distributors.

You’ll be 100% new business-focused initially and then manage the accounts you land.

Run full-cycle sales: prospecting, pitching, closing, and growing long-term relationships while shaping the sales engine.

You’ll also help choose and implement the company’s first CRM, giving you full control over the tech stack and systems that work for your style.

The role is office-based (Slough) with occasional travel to meetings and trade shows, including occasional weekends and overnights.

Time off in lieu is provided.

Where You’ll Be Doing It:

Your company is the #1 disruptor in the UK disposable glove market.

It launched during the pandemic, supplying millions of gloves to the NHS and care sector.

While others stayed in healthcare, your founder saw a bigger opportunity: the trades.

People who need gloves that don’t fall apart after five minutes.

So your company pivoted, researching and developing premium gloves for the industrial and automotive world, a market the industry had largely ignored.

The result? One customer said, “These gloves are so strong, Thanos could use them.”

The first of its kind, with a £200m+ market to target, the product practically sells itself.

They have a 4.9-star average rating and achieved ‘Star Shop’ status on TikTok (top 2% of sellers).

Your company shows up where the trade community lives: TikTok, car shows, detailing groups, and more.

They’ve gone viral, built serious hype, and partnered with top automotive influencers like Demo and Wrench Studios (Pimp My Ride UK).

They built a custom BMW E30 M3 Touring, a six-figure show car, to turn heads at automotive events and boost brand buzz.

You’ll be in the thick of something exhilarating, disrupting an old-fashioned industry.

The goal is to become the ‘Red Bull’ of gloves. Not just a product, but a movement.

The B2C channel is thriving, hitting 7 figures in under 2 years.

Now they’re launching into B2B markets, and you’ll lead the charge.

You’ll join a tight-knit team of five, shaping the culture and helping scale the business, with plans to triple in size by 2026.

Skills You Need to Apply:

This isn’t about ticking boxes. It’s about a relentless sales mindset, emotional resilience, and the drive to build something meaningful.

Here’s what you’ll need:

• A proven track record in new business with 1+ years of B2B sales experience
• A full UK driving licence
• Based within commutable distance to Slough

This is a full-time, office-based role. No hybrid or remote.

If you want polished playbooks and slick systems, this isn’t for you. You’ll be helping build them.

It’s a 100% new business role in a fast-growing startup. Tough, demanding, and not your typical 9–5.
