Your role will be to find, qualify, and secure new sales of our recruitment software system. This is a subscription service with a price ranging from £2K up to and beyond £10K per annum. You'll be speaking with Heads of Human Resources and business leaders to describe the benefits of recruiting with our product. We have great case studies with some well-known companies.

Our goal is to spend time with prospects we can turn into customers. That requires careful targeting and being able to read people.

Sales Targets for Software Sales Executive

Sales targets are moderate. Most customers are in the care and education markets in which budgets can be under pressure. You will have freedom to sell across the whole of the UK and into any market. This is in addition to responding to inbound enquiries.

Your first annual target will be just £60K of new subscriptions. You will enjoy uncapped commission at 25% of new sales up to £60K. Commission will rise to 35% thereafter uncapped.

The Future

This is an exciting time to join the company. We are still very small which offers you the prospect of making a genuine difference as we achieve our goals. Developing your skills is important to us. Based upon your success and ambition, there may be the genuine future opportunity to hire and manage other sales executives.
