• A platform to build from: You’ll inherit customer relationships, while having the freedom and opportunity to create and develop your own new business pipeline
• Hybrid working: 2–3 days from home, with time in our Reading or Leatherhead office for collaboration
• Career progression: Investment in your development, with opportunities to progress into senior account management or leadership roles
• A supportive, high-performing sales culture: Access to market-leading solutions, vendors, and technical expertise to help you win and grow business

What you’ll do:

• Hunt for new business: Proactively prospect into new organisations, develop your own pipeline, open doors, and convert opportunities into long-term Bytes customers
• Manage and grow existing accounts: Build trusted relationships, understand customer priorities, uncover new opportunities, and expand wallet share
• Own the full sales cycle: Take opportunities from initial prospecting and discovery through to solution development, negotiation, and close
• Create opportunities: Use referrals, networking, targeted outreach, cross-sell, and prospecting to continually develop your pipeline
• Solution sell: Work alongside Bytes' technical specialists to build tailored solutions across Microsoft, Cloud, Cybersecurity, Data & AI, and Managed Services
• Own your territory: Take a strategic approach to account and territory planning, balancing the growth of existing relationships with the acquisition of new customers

What we’re looking for:

• 2–3 years’ experience in IT sales or account management within a VAR, reseller, vendor, MSP, or service provider environment
• A genuine new business mentality and evidence of proactively creating your own opportunities
• Experience managing and growing existing customer relationships alongside winning new logos
• Someone who enjoys prospecting and isn’t reliant solely on an inherited account base or inbound opportunities
• Strong communication, relationship-building, and commercial skills
• Self-motivated, proactive, and comfortable taking ownership of a sales territory
