The Opportunity
Your effort sets your income. At Purely Energy, what you earn is entirely in your own hands from day one.
We are a small, privately owned, and rapidly expanding energy broker. As a B Corp certified business, we lead with transparency and values, helping commercial clients across every sector secure elite energy rates from a network of over 30 top UK suppliers. We don't just sign clients and walk away—our proprietary energy monitoring software helps businesses cut consumption long-term, resulting in an incredible 91% client renewal rate.
We are entering a genuine phase of growth and are looking for competitive, resilient individuals to join our Warrington team. We promote strictly from within. This isn't just a telesales job; it is a proven, structured pathway to owning, closing, and scaling your own high-value B2B client portfolio.
The Career Journey
This role is split into two distinct developmental phases, allowing you to master the industry before taking complete control of your pipeline.
- Stage 1: The Foundations (Months 1–4): Supported by intensive classroom training and 1-on-1 coaching, you will focus on high-volume outbound B2B calling, lead generation, and pipeline building. You will learn the energy market inside out while qualifying leads alongside our senior consultants.
- Stage 2: Account Management (Promotion): Once you prove you can build a consistent pipeline, you transition into a full Account Manager. You will own your client relationships, handle complex energy consultations, close your own deals, and retain renewals. As you step into closing, your personal earning capacity scales up dramatically.
Note: Experienced energy brokers or seasoned B2B professionals will move through this transition path at an accelerated pace matching their skillset.
Key Responsibilities
- Lead Generation: Conduct high-volume outbound business-to-business (B2B) cold calls and tailored emails to generate highly qualified sales opportunities.
- Gatekeeper Navigation: Strategically map organizations to identify and engage directly with key financial and operational decision-makers.
- Rapport Building: Pitch Purely Energy's B Corp value proposition quickly and clearly over the phone, handling complex pricing objections with composure.
- CRM Integrity: Maintain precise, accurate records of all dials, contract end dates (CEDs), and contact outcomes within our system.
- KPI Metrics: Consistently hit daily outbound call volumes and monthly lead qualification targets to fuel your promotional track.
Who We Are Looking For
Above all, we want self-motivated individuals with a competitive spirit and a genuine hunger to build a career. We have tailored routes for three specific profiles:
- Recent Graduates: No prior sales experience required. If you have an elite work ethic, high energy, and want a real career route with proper training, we will teach you the rest.
- Experienced Sales Professionals: You have a proven track record in telesales, lead generation, or direct B2B sales, and you are ready to remove your earnings ceiling and transition into a true account management structure.
- Energy Account Managers: You already know the energy broker landscape and want to grow a client base inside an ethical, values-led environment with a strong basic salary to match your expertise.
Essential Requirements:
- A confident, resilient, and professional telephone manner.
- The mental stamina to handle high-rejection sales environments and remain composed under pressure.
- Full legal authorization to work in the United Kingdom (Sponsorship is unavailable).
- Live within a reliable daily commuting distance of our Warrington office (WA1 1GG).
