The opportunity
You’ll take ownership of sales training and performance development across a growing commercial function. From onboarding new hires to coaching experienced salespeople and developing managers, you’ll play a key role in improving performance, consistency, and culture.
You’ll work closely with sales leadership to identify gaps, embed best practice, and create training that genuinely drives revenue outcomes.

• Coaching live sales environments through call listening, floor support, roleplay, and structured feedback
• Building onboarding programmes for new starters across commercial teams
• Supporting managers with coaching techniques, 1:1 development, and performance conversations
• Creating engaging training content, playbooks, and enablement resources that teams actually use
• Using data and performance metrics to identify trends, skill gaps, and development opportunities
What we’re looking for

You’ll likely have experience in environments such as:
*Outbound sales
*Telesales/contact centres
*Recruitment
*Hospitality/events sales
*SaaS or high-growth commercial teams


You should bring:
• Experience delivering training within fast-paced sales environments
• Strong live coaching capability and experience improving behaviours/performance
• Confidence facilitating training sessions and engaging teams
• Experience supporting sales managers and team leaders
• CRM familiarity — Salesforce experience is beneficial


Why join?
• Private healthcare & dental
• 26 days holiday (rising with service)
• Monthly team socials
• Career progression opportunities
• Long-term benefits including paid sabbatical scheme
• Opportunity to shape the sales culture of a growing commercial business


If you’ve successfully made the move from sales into enablement, coaching, or L&D — and still love the energy of a sales floor — we’d love to hear from you.
