The Reality: This Is a New Business Role.

As a Business Development Executive, you'll spend your days on the phone. This is high-volume outbound calling to UK businesses, generating appointments for our Business Development Managers

Your day-to-day:

Making 80-100+ outbound calls to prospective businesses daily
Pitching Focus Group's technology solutions (Telecoms, IT, Cyber Security, Mobile)
Qualifying prospects and booking face-to-face or virtual meetings for BDMs
Managing your activity and pipeline in our CRM system
Handling rejection, staying motivated, and hitting daily/weekly targets

This isn't easy. But if you're resilient, coachable, and hungry to prove yourself it's your fastest route into a lucrative B2B sales career.

✅ Resilience – You can handle 50+ "no's" a day and come back stronger

✅ Coachability – Willing to learn, take feedback, and constantly improve

✅ Work ethic – Comfortable with high call volumes and daily targets

✅ Positive phone manner – Professional, clear, confident communication

✅ Hunger to succeed – Motivated by progression and earning potential

✅ Growth mindset – See this as the start of something bigger, not just a job

Previous experience? Helpful but not essential. We've built six-figure careers for people from retail, hospitality, customer service, and fresh out of university.
