Responsibilities
~2 min read- →Follow up inbound leads quickly, qualify the opportunity and move the right prospects towards a meeting or proposal.
- →Build your own outbound pipeline through calls, email, LinkedIn and targeted account research. You should not depend entirely on marketing to feed you leads.
- →Pick up the phone. Cold calls, warm calls, follow-up calls and reactivation calls are part of the job.
- →Conduct discovery conversations, understand the client's problem and identify which Great Pyramid service or combination of services actually fits.
- →Prepare quotations, proposals, presentations, service agreements and other commercial documents accurately and on time.
- →Understand pricing, margins, payment terms, scope, termination clauses and key commercial obligations well enough to discuss them confidently and know when to escalate.
- →Negotiate commercial terms within approved boundaries, while protecting the company's position and maintaining a good client experience.
- →Work closely with the Senior Business Development Consultant on larger or more complex opportunities and learn how to manage the full sales cycle.
- →Work with the Senior Growth Marketing Specialist on campaign leads, lead quality, buyer questions and conversion feedback.
- →Keep the CRM / pipeline clean: every meaningful opportunity must have a next step, owner, value and follow up date.
- →Learn our services fast recruitment, EoR, immigration, HR advisory and related HR solutions so you can speak intelligently with prospects rather than simply forwarding enquiries internally.
- →Follow up relentlessly but professionally. Good opportunities should not disappear because we forgot to call back.
- A role for someone who prefers email because calling strangers feels uncomfortable.
- A proposal formatting or agreement-administration position.
- A role where every objection, negotiation or difficult client question is passed immediately to your manager.
- A busy is good enough job. Activity matters, but activity must eventually create pipeline and revenue.
- EARLY-CAREER SALES EXPERIENCE: Ideally 1–3 years in B2B sales, business development, recruitment or another client-facing commercial role. Strong fresh graduates with substantial sales exposure may be considered, but this is not meant to be a passive trainee role.
- COMFORT WITH OUTBOUND: You must be willing to call prospects you have never met, open conversations and ask for meetings. Being not really a cold-calling person is a deal-breaker.
- COMMUNICATION: Strong spoken and written English, clear thinking and the confidence to speak with HR leaders, founders, managers and corporate decision-makers.
- COMMERCIAL AWARENESS: Able to understand fees, margins, payment terms, scopes of work, contractual obligations and basic negotiation. You do not need to be a lawyer, but you cannot be afraid of a contract.
- SALES DISCIPLINE: Comfortable working from targets, maintaining a pipeline, setting next steps, following up and keeping records accurate.
- OWNERSHIP: When a lead lands in your name, you own the next action. We should not need to chase you to chase the prospect.
- LEARNING SPEED: Our services can be technical. You need the curiosity to learn EoR, recruitment, EP / DP, immigration processes, HR advisory and related solutions quickly.
- PROFESSIONAL JUDGEMENT: Able to balance urgency with accuracy and know when commercial or contractual issues should be escalated to the Senior Business Development Consultant.
- HUNGRY- you want targets, responsibility, commission and the chance to prove yourself.
- CONFIDENT- comfortable starting conversations and asking for the business without being arrogant.
- RESILIENT - no does not ruin your day. You learn, adjust and make the next call
- CURIOUS - you ask good questions and want to understand how the client's business actually works.
- COACHABLE - you can take feedback, apply it quickly and improve your pitch.
- RESOURCEFUL - your default response is I'll find out, not I don't know.
- ACCOUNTABLE - no excuses, no disappearing follow-ups, no blaming marketing for an empty pipeline.
- ETHICAL - you do not promise what the company cannot deliver just to win a deal.
