Your Path to Success:
Being a Business Development Executive at Focus Group means stepping into a well-defined career path with ample opportunities for advancement. Our most successful team members have transformed their careers despite starting with no sales experience. Here are a few success stories that illustrate what can be achieved with determination and hard work:
- Mohan - Joined January 2023 with no sales background
2.5 years later: Generated £1.3 million in sales, promoted to BDM, now training new executives and securing our largest partner to date, with over 6 sales awards to his name. - Emma - Joined July 2024 after a hiatus, without prior sales experience
Within 8 months: Achieved £70k in revenue and built a £500k+ pipeline. A finalist for the National Sales Awards 2025, she is on her way to realizing a long-term career in sales she never thought possible. - Ronan - Started August 2022, fresh out of university
Within a year: He was promoted to Team Leader, leading a team that generated over £2 million in profit in their first year, and has since doubled that number.
The Role: Embrace the Challenge
As a Business Development Executive, your primary responsibility will involve high-volume outbound calls to UK businesses, focusing on setting appointments for our Business Development Managers.
Your Daily Responsibilities:
- Conducting 80-100+ outbound calls to potential clients each day.
- Presenting Focus Group's innovative technology solutions, including Telecoms, IT, Cyber Security, and Mobile services.
- Qualifying potential clients and arranging face-to-face or virtual meetings for BDMs.
- Tracking your activities and managing your sales pipeline using our CRM system.
- Maintaining motivation in the face of rejection and consistently meeting daily and weekly targets.
This role is not easy. However, for those who are resilient, eager to learn, and enthusiastic about proving themselves, this is the quickest route to a rewarding B2B sales career.
What We Are Looking For:
Resilience: You can handle a high volume of rejections and come back stronger.
Coachable Attitude: A willingness to learn and adapt is crucial.
Drive: You possess the ambition to succeed and grow within our company.
