Job Description

If you thrive in a fast-paced sales environment, enjoy connecting with decision-makers, and want your hard work to translate directly into strong earnings and career progression, this could be the perfect opportunity for you. This is an outbound-focused sales role where energy, consistency, and determination are key.

From day one, you’ll receive the support, coaching, and development needed to sharpen your sales skills and achieve great results. During your first year, your focus will be on winning new business and establishing strong sales habits. After 12 months of successful performance, you’ll have a clear pathway to progress into an Account Manager role, combining new business development with managing, renewing, and growing your own customer portfolio.

Responsibilities: 

• Make 80–100 outbound calls daily, connecting with B2B decision-makers and generating new business opportunities.
• Lead discovery conversations to understand customers’ hiring needs and recommend the right IrishJobs solutions.
• Pitch solutions, prepare quotes, close deals, and take ownership of the customers you win.
• Build and manage a strong pipeline while working towards clear monthly targets and uncapped earning potential.
• After 12 months of strong performance, progress into an Account Manager role, managing, renewing, and growing your own customer portfolio.

Qualifications

• Experience in high-volume outbound sales essential (80–100 calls/day is ideal).  
• The confidence to pick up the phone, handle objections, and keep going. 
• A target-driven mentality and genuine motivation to earn well.  
• B2B sales, inside sales, recruitment agency, insurance/telco outbound, or call-centre style sales backgrounds can all work brilliantly here. 
• We’re focused on mindset + activity + resilience — not fancy titles.
