£32,000 Basic + Uncapped Commission (OTE £70,000+)

Outbound, telephone-based sales only. This is not a field sales, face-to-face, or account management role no site visits, no meetings, no in-person selling.

Overview

Accomplish Today is proud to be representing one of the UK's leading professional services organisations as it expands its high performing outbound sales division. You'll be working a consistent flow of pre-qualified professional referrals, closing new business by phone ideally within a single call.

This is a senior level, telephone-based outbound sales role for an experienced closer. It is not suitable for candidates from field sales, face-to-face sales, retail, or door-to-door backgrounds. The entire sales cycle happens over the phone, and the ability to close efficiently within one or two calls is essential, not a stretch goal.

The Opportunity

Working exclusively with warm, pre-qualified professional referrals (not cold-call prospecting), you will engage prospective clients by phone, understand their requirements, and guide them through a consultative but fast-moving sales conversation, aiming to convert within a single call wherever possible.

Key Responsibilities

  • Manage a consistent flow of outbound, pre-qualified professional referral leads by telephone

  • Conduct consultative sales conversations aimed at one-call close, minimising multi-touch sales cycles

  • Build credibility and trust with decision-makers quickly, over the phone only

  • Manage a pipeline of opportunities through to completion via telephone and email. No in-person meetings

  • Consistently achieve and exceed sales targets

  • Deliver an outstanding customer experience throughout a fast, phone-based sales journey

  • Work collaboratively within a high performing outbound sales team

Essential Criteria
  • Minimum 2 years experience in a telephone-based (not face-to-face or field) sales role

  • Proven ability to close new business within one or two calls, not a multi visit or relationship building over months sales cycle

  • Track record of working with referral based or warm lead pipelines, not solely self-generated cold outreach

  • Strong objection-handling and negotiation skills conducted entirely by phone

  • Stable employment history showing development and achievement within previous roles

  • Excellent telephone communication and rapport-building skills

  • Strong pipeline management and organisational ability

Suitable Backgrounds

We're particularly interested in speaking with candidates from:

  • Telephone based financial services sales

  • Telephone based insurance sales

  • Outbound telesales or telesales closing roles

  • Call centre or contact centre based B2C sales with a closing/target-driven focus

Not suitable for: field sales, business development managers who sell face-to-face, door-to-door sales, retail floor sales, or account management roles built around in-person client visits.

What's on Offer

  • £32,000 basic salary

  • Realistic first-year earnings of £70,000+

  • Uncapped commission structure

  • Professional qualifications and study support

  • Ongoing training and development

  • Clear career progression opportunities

  • Supportive and ambitious culture

  • Long-term career prospects with a market-leading organisation

If you're an outbound telephone sales closer with a track record of converting warm referrals fast, apply today.
