* Location: Braintree District (towns & villages)
* Hours: ~20 hrs/week (flexible, mostly during office hours, plus occasional evening/weekend events)

About Our Braintree:
Our Braintree is a bold new start‑up platform championing and connecting independent businesses across the Braintree District, with ambitious plans for rapid expansion.
Being Clear And Up‑Front – How You'll Earn:
This role starts as commission‑only — because we can reward you with very high commission per Premium Member sign‑up.
Once you've shown consistent results, you can move into a secure salary + benefits package, with the potential to grow your own team.
Realistic first‑month commission potential: £800–£1,500+, depending on activity.
The Opportunity:
You'll be the face of Our Braintree: meeting business owners, presenting our benefits, signing members, and building lasting partnerships with SMEs across the district.
We provide:
* Full training, marketing materials & CRM access
* Strong brand vision & marketing support
* Access to networking & community events to grow your reach
* Regular mentoring and strategy sessions with the founders
* Key Responsibilities
Actively engage with independent businesses via in‑person visits, calls, email, and social media (including LinkedIn prospecting)
Present the benefits of Our Braintree & Premium Membership confidently
Attend and present at local networking and community events to showcase the platform
Run and manage targeted digital ad campaigns (Meta, Google)
Log and follow up all contact in the CRM
Produce weekly progress and traction reports
Maintain engagement with Standard and Premium members to build long‑term partnerships
Create engaging social content to promote members and the network
What We're Looking For:
* Friendly, professional communicator who can quickly build rapport
* Self‑starter who hits agreed targets and thrives on autonomy
* Comfortable meeting people face‑to‑face and presenting in small groups
* Presentable in both appearance and approach
* Own vehicle & full UK driving licence preferred
* Happy to attend occasional evening/weekend events when useful for networking
* Familiarity with digital tools, CRM systems, and social media for business a plus
Why This Role Stands Out:
* Uncapped earning potential from day one
* Fast progression to salary + benefits
* Flexible working pattern
* All expenses paid
* You'll be directly shaping a new, ambitious business network in your area
