Permanent, full-time Company mobile · Clear route to Account Executive
£30,000 base, an on-target package of £80,000, and a genuine path to Account Executive based on results, not tenure. If you're hungry, sharp, and want to build a real career in B2B technology sales, read on. We hire for attitude first and skills second, and we don't mind whether you're fresh out of university, an experienced salesperson, a career changer, or coming back to work.
About Meter
Meter is a UK leader in IoT smart metering and monitoring. We gather millions of data points every day to help some of the country's largest organisations (airports, universities, NHS trusts, retailers, and commercial property portfolios) understand and cut their water, gas, and electricity consumption through better data.
We're growing fast, and we're looking for a driven Business Development Representative to join our commercial team. This is where new business starts. You'll open conversations with decision-makers at major organisations, qualify real opportunities, and learn how complex B2B deals are structured and won, working alongside experienced colleagues on live deals from day one.
This is not a "sit and dial" job. It's a foot in the door of a fast-moving sector that matters, with real ownership from the start.
Who this is for
We care that you're hungry, sharp, and ready to work. Your age, your degree, and what your CV looks like on paper matter far less than your drive.
This could be the right move if you're:
- A recent graduate who wants real responsibility rather than a training scheme
- An experienced salesperson looking to break into a growing technology sector
- A career changer or returner with the right attitude and the appetite to learn
- Anyone, at any stage, with the hunger to build a serious career in B2B sales
What we're looking for:
- A strong communicator who is confident on the phone, teams calls and polished in writing
- Organised, self-motivated, and comfortable working to targets
- Genuinely curious about business, technology, and sustainability
- Resilient: you bounce back quickly and take feedback well
- A commercial mindset: you understand that generating revenue is what makes everything else possible
What you'll do
- Research and identify new client opportunities across commercial property, infrastructure, retail, and the public sector
- Reach out proactively by email, LinkedIn, and phone to open conversations with decision-makers
- Qualify leads and book meetings and demos for senior colleagues
- Support proposals, tenders, and commercial discussions as you develop
- Manage your pipeline in our CRM, keeping your activity and data clean and current
- Build real knowledge of smart metering, utility data, and the UK non-household water and energy markets
- Attend client meetings and learn first-hand how large, complex deals get won
What you'll get
- Competitive base salary plus excellent, performance-based commission (OTE £80,000)
- Company mobile phone
- A structured route to a full Account Executive role, based on performance, not how long you've been here
- Exposure to major UK clients and large, complex projects
- A front-row seat in one of the UK's fastest-growing technology sectors
- Real ownership and responsibility from day one
