You’ve already proven you can sell. Now sell something that matters.

We’re looking for a senior closer to help scale technology that genuinely helps the NHS and healthcare providers fix one of their biggest headaches — staffing — and to be paid uncapped for doing it well.

We’re AppLocum. We’re transforming how healthcare organisations hire, by combining a full\-service staffing agency with smart, modern workforce technology. We’re scaling fast, and we need a senior Business Development Executive with a track record to match — someone who works smart, builds trust quickly, and consistently turns conversations into closed deals.

The Opportunity

This is a senior, high\-ownership role in a high\-growth business — not a faceless dialling factory. You’ll own new business across the healthcare sector end to end: finding prospects, opening doors at senior level, leading commercial conversations, and closing deals across our tech\-enabled workforce platform and our traditional placement services.

You’ll work directly with the leadership team, help shape how we sell, and — as we grow — have a clear path towards leading and mentoring others. If you want real influence, real autonomy and uncapped reward, this is built for you.

Essential Requirements

These two are non\-negotiable. Please only apply if you meet both:

  • Proven sales track record. You can clearly evidence consistent success in a target\-driven sales or business development role — ideally selling both SaaS and services. We’ll want to hear about deals you’ve won and targets you’ve beaten.

  • Graduate, 2:1 minimum. You hold a bachelor’s degree at 2:1 classification or above.
What We’re Looking For

A Natural Sales Professional

  • Passionate about sales, business development, and achieving results

  • Comfortable making high\-volume outbound calls and leading commercial conversations

  • Driven, competitive, and motivated by targets and commission
Strong Communicator \& Relationship Builder
  • Confident communicating with stakeholders at all levels

  • Able to build rapport quickly and influence decision\-making

  • Skilled at asking the right questions and identifying client needs
Proactive \& Resilient
  • Self\-motivated with a “go\-getter” mentality

  • Comfortable working in a fast\-paced, high\-growth environment

  • Resilient, adaptable, and able to handle objections confidently
Commercially Minded
  • Strong business awareness with the ability to spot growth opportunities

  • Analytical thinker who can use data and insights to improve performance

  • Tech\-confident and comfortable using CRM systems, Microsoft Office, and web\-based platforms
What You’ll Do
  • Identify and engage prospective clients across the healthcare sector

  • Lead outbound outreach — calls, emails and follow\-ups — and own senior\-level commercial conversations

  • Understand client challenges and present the right solution — tech platform and placement services

  • Build and protect strong, long\-term client relationships and grow key accounts

  • Own the full sales cycle from first contact through to close

  • Support onboarding and adoption of our self\-management platform

  • Use CRM data and sales insights to sharpen performance and forecast accurately

  • Consistently achieve and exceed monthly sales targets
What’s In It For You
  • Uncapped commission. Your earning potential is genuinely in your own hands — the better you perform, the more you take home.

  • Real progression. We’re scaling, with a genuine path towards senior and leadership roles for the right performer.

  • Work that matters. You’ll sell technology that helps the NHS and providers deliver better care — not vapourware.

  • A team that backs you. Supportive, ambitious and collaborative — your contribution gets noticed here.

  • Practical perks. Company pension, employee discount, free on\-site parking and a town\-centre location with excellent transport links.
Pay: £28,000–£32,000 base per year \+ uncapped commission. Full\-time, on\-site.

Think you’re our next top performer?

If you meet both essential requirements and the rest sounds like you — don’t overthink it. Hit Apply and send us your CV with a few lines on a deal you’re proud of and why you’d be brilliant in this role. We review applications daily and move quickly for the right person, so the sooner you apply, the better.
