The Opportunity of Sales Manager, Professional Services

This high-impact leadership role owns the outbound sales function. You will lead, coach, and grow a team of Business Development Representatives (BDRs), expanding from six to ten in 2027. The BDRs identify prospects, start meaningful conversations and secure qualified meetings for specialist consultants, who then lead the technical and commercial assessments. This is not an individual contributor role: you'll focus on building stronger leadership, improving conversion, and creating a scalable, high-performing sales operation. Deliver results, and you will have a clear route to promotion to Head of Sales.

* A practical, hands-on leadership style that sets clear expectations and raises standards.

* The ability to understand a technical service, communicate it accurately and collaborate closely with subject-matter experts.
