About the role

This graduate role is centred on commercial growth. You will learn how Sage takes a client campaign from a clear brief to measurable customer acquisition activity, then use structured in person conversations to identify interest, explain value and create new business.

The work suits a graduate who wants direct commercial exposure rather than a desk based theory programme. You will be trained on the assigned client, customer profile, campaign objectives and reporting method before taking responsibility for your own activity. Campaigns may include consumer services, energy or telecommunications, depending on the live client brief.

What you will do

• Study the client proposition, target audience and campaign measures before beginning customer activity.
• Approach prospective customers professionally in approved Solihull campaign locations.
• Ask relevant questions, understand the customer situation and explain the service in plain language.
• Qualify genuine interest and complete the approved acquisition process accurately.
• Maintain daily records covering conversations, outcomes, follow ups and recurring objections.
• Share customer and competitor observations with the campaign manager during review meetings.
• Test approved conversation approaches and compare results using the available performance data.
• Build towards supporting territory planning and campaign improvement projects after demonstrating consistent results.

What we are looking for

• A degree, equivalent qualification or evidence of strong practical commercial ability.
• Interest in business development, sales, customer acquisition or account growth.
• The confidence to start conversations and the discipline to listen before presenting a solution.
• Comfort with targets and the maturity to separate performance feedback from personal criticism.
• Strong written accuracy for customer records and daily reporting.
• Availability for full time, on site work from Monday to Friday and the right to work full time in the United Kingdom.

What success looks like

The first 30 days focus on product knowledge, compliant conversations and accurate records. During the following two months, the focus moves to consistent activity, stronger qualification, improved conversion and useful market feedback. Strong performance is measured by quality as well as volume.

Training and development

You will receive in person coaching, observation, practice sessions and regular performance reviews. Development can extend into campaign planning, team coaching or account growth, depending on your results, behaviour and the needs of the business.

Pay and working arrangement

This is a full time, on site role from Monday to Friday. The base salary is £25,000 per year and may be negotiated according to relevant experience. Additional performance based earnings apply. The stated Year 1 OTE is £45,000, but actual earnings depend on individual results and are not guaranteed.

How to apply

Apply through LinkedIn with a current CV. Applications are reviewed for evidence of communication, reliability, learning ability and relevant transferable skills. Sage welcomes applications from people of all backgrounds and makes hiring decisions using role related evidence.
