Robert Half is delighted to be partnering with a leading Financial Services business in Perth to recruit a Business Development Trainee.
This is an exciting opportunity to join a global organisation that combines the scale and reach of a multinational with the personal feel of a people-first, employee-owned culture. The business has enjoyed consistent growth in recent years and continues to invest in its teams, with a strong emphasis on professional development, inclusion, and career progression.
The Role
As a Business Development Trainee, you'll join a supportive and high-performing team where you will learn how to identify and engage with potential clients, map the local market, and act as a brand ambassador. This is a varied and interactive role with plenty of scope to build your skills in communication, relationship management, and commercial awareness.
Day-to-day, you will:
1. Carry out outbound and inbound calls to clients and prospects
2. Support the team in identifying new business opportunities through market mapping
3. Build and maintain relationships with both internal colleagues and external stakeholders
4. Keep accurate and up-to-date client records
5. Manage your workload effectively, prioritising tasks and supporting ad hoc projects and campaigns
About You
This role is entry level and would suit a recent graduate, school leaver, or someone looking to start their career in a professional environment. Above all, we're looking for someone who is enthusiastic, motivated, and eager to learn.
You'll be:
6. A confident communicator, both written and verbal
7. Comfortable speaking on the phone with a wide range of clients
8. Organised with strong attention to detail
9. Able to manage and prioritise your workload effectively
10. IT literate and confident with common software packages
11. Positive, driven, and open to feedback
Previous experience in sales, customer service, or target-driven roles would be an advantage but is not essential - full training and support will be provided.
What's on Offer
12. Comprehensive training and career development with clear pathways to progress
13. Competitive salary to £23,400 plus monthly performance-related bonus
14. Flexible, people-first culture - supportive of life outside of work when needed
