About fairmont
At fairmont, we simplify business finance. Traditional bank lending isn’t always the right fit for small and growing businesses, which is why we’ve built a trusted network of over 100 lenders. This allows us to offer fast, flexible, and effective funding solutions tailored to each client.
Following the successful launch of our Colchester office, we’re continuing to grow and are expanding our Sales Development team. This is a key entry-level role within the business, supporting our Junior Brokers and wider sales function.
The Role
As a Sales Development Representative, you’ll be the first point of contact for business owners exploring funding options. You’ll work through internal data, identify qualified opportunities, and introduce suitable prospects to our Junior Broker team.
This role is ideal for someone looking to build a long-term career in sales or financial services. High performers with the right attitude and consistency will have a clear progression path into a Junior Broker position.
Key Responsibilities
- Make 120+ outbound calls per day or achieve 2+ hours of talk time
- Identify and qualify genuine funding opportunities
- Accurately log and manage all leads within the CRM
- Record clear, concise notes on each client’s requirements
- Allocate opportunities to the most appropriate broker
- Book and transfer qualified appointments confidently
- Execute targeted email campaigns (currently generating ~£1,000/month in commission)
- Meet and exceed daily, weekly, and monthly targets
- Maintain a professional, consultative phone approach
- Engage in training and continuously improve performance
What We’re Looking For
- Previous experience in sales, telesales, or a customer-facing role (desirable, not essential)
- Confident and professional communication skills
- Resilience and motivation to succeed in a high-volume outbound role
- Coachable, with the ability to learn quickly and apply feedback
- Strong work ethic and ambition to progress
- Genuine interest in sales, finance, and career development
What We Offer
- £27,500 base salary (DOE) with £50,000 OTE
- Clear progression: SDR → Junior Broker
- Full training and ongoing support
- Hands-on experience in commercial finance and broking
- Access to modern CRM systems and sales tools
- Supportive, high-performance team environment
- Real opportunity for long-term growth within the business
