What We're Looking For Must Have: 3-5+ years selling managed IT services Consultative sales approach: You build trust and solve problems, don't just push product Technical credibility: You can hold meaningful conversations with IT managers and understand technical services (you don't need to be an engineer, but you need to "get it") Self-starter mentality: You can build and work your own pipeline, manage your own time, and hold yourself accountable Full clean UK driving licence (field sales role) Right to work in UK Highly Desirable but not essential: Experience selling cybersecurity/MSSP services (MDR, ITDR, security assessments) Existing relationships/network in Chester, North West, North Wales business community Microsoft, security, or vendor certifications Track record selling into professional services, healthcare, logistics, or regulated sectors Understanding of B2B SME buying cycles (30-100 employees typical) Cultural Fit (This Matters): Collaborative: Our technical team will support you Honest and consultative: Our customers stay with us because we don't oversell - we solve real problems Comfortable in a family business culture: We're not a corporate machine.

You're not selling a startup's promises - you're selling proven delivery. Our customers stay with us because we're genuinely good at what we do. Strategic growth phase. This isn't "business as usual" - we're actively transitioning to MSSP, launching AI services, and investing in growth. There's genuine opportunity here for someone who executes. Family culture, not corporate politics. Our CEO is accessible. Our technical team is supportive. Decisions get made quickly because we're not a bureaucracy. Strong existing customer satisfaction. When you do win new business, you're not going to be firefighting poor delivery or defending bad service. Our customers expand with us consistently - that's proof our service quality is strong. You'll actually be supported. Marketing collateral, technical pre-sales, CRM and tools, lead generation campaigns - you're not doing this alone. You're not just "another salesperson" here - you're a core part of a strategic growth phase with genuine upside. Interested to hear more?

This isn't "business as usual" - we're actively transitioning to MSSP, launching AI services, and investing in growth. There's genuine opportunity here for someone who executes. Family culture, not corporate politics. Our CEO is accessible. Our technical team is supportive. Decisions get made quickly because we're not a bureaucracy. Strong existing customer satisfaction. When you do win new business, you're not going to be firefighting poor delivery or defending bad service. Our customers expand with us consistently - that's proof our service quality is strong. You'll actually be supported. Marketing collateral, technical pre-sales, CRM and tools, lead generation campaigns - you're not doing this alone. You're not just "another salesperson" here - you're a core part of a strategic growth phase with genuine upside. Interested to hear more?
