We’re looking for someone who thrives on building relationships within a sales environment — a natural connector with a strong and active network across the North East business community.

What We Offer * Competitive base salary strong uncapped commission for every successful introduction * A role at the heart of our regional growth strategy * Freedom to leverage your network your way * Supportive experts handling delivery so you can focus on what you do best — connecting people * Long-term career growth in a highly valued regional function About the Role This role is all about opening doors, creating trusted introductions, and transforming connections into long-term commercial partnerships that deliver revenue for both our business and our partners. This is not a direct sales role. Instead, you’ll use your credibility, influence, and local presence to introduce partner organisations to our outsourced procurement model. In many cases, these will operate like affiliate partnerships — where businesses are rewarded for introducing our cost-saving solution to their own customer base. You’ll identify opportunities where improving purchasing power can strengthen a partner’s offering, helping their clients unlock cost savings and operational efficiencies. Once the introduction is made, our procurement specialists manage the process through to completion. If you're the person others turn to when they need to know “Who should I speak to about…?”, you’re likely a great fit. Why This Role Matters Our model is transforming how businesses buy — reducing costs while increasing value. Your ability to champion that locally is key to bringing more organisations on the journey with us and expanding our affiliate partnership network across the North East
