Sales and Partner Acquisition Manager Remote
Job description
Zero Deposit
Renting a new home can be stressful and expensive. At Zero Deposit, we’re changing that. We give tenants an alternative to expensive security deposits, allowing them to spend their money on the things they love.
Today, tenants can pay thousands in a security deposit - often before getting their old one back. We allow tenants to avoid this, so they can use their money on the things they love. We enable them to purchase a Zero Deposit Guarantee for a low fee. Not only this, but we also give landlords more protection than a cash deposit; it’s a win-win!
Zero Deposit is a market-defining InsurTech business on a mission to make renting easier, faster and fairer. The only way we will do that is by building an exceptional team, having a market-leading product and delivering an amazing experience for our customers. Come join us.
Who we are
You’ll be joining a brilliant group of people who are here to help our partners get the most out of our product, the Zero Deposit Guarantee.
We use Insurance and Technology to help change the way people rent. Since our launch in 2018 we've helped 100,000 tenants move home, without having to pay an expensive cash deposit.
We’re the UK’s market leader for this type of product and we work with the best agents in the business. We’re looking for someone who is motivated by building relationships and helping people succeed. As a team, we’re driven by showing up consistently doing the right thing and seeing the results of our actions.
In turn, you’ll be joining a business that’s full of incredibly talented people from across Europe, where you're a valued member of the team and your actions have a huge impact. We'll help you to develop your skills and give you great experiences to supercharge your career.
The role
We’re looking for someone to help us build a team that identifies the right agencies to work with and then brings them onboard with Zero Deposit. We’ve already got 2,500 branches in the UK. But there’s still a huge market to go after and we want you to lead that.
Your team will use a number of methods to build engagement from telesales to specific field-based events. Their role will be to get to the relevant decision-makers, sell the benefits of our product, and provide training. They’ll then pass their accounts over to the Partnerships Team who will work with clients to ensure our partners get the most out of us. You’ll split your time between organising campaigns and fieldwork, building capability in the team, and getting letting agents onboard with us.
What we're looking for
We’re looking for people who care about making a difference. It’s okay if you don’t know much about the lettings industry, insurance or are starting out in your career - if you care about the right things and have the right skills, we'll help with the rest. But if you do know about these things, especially the lettings industry, then even better!
We’re looking for people who are motivated, get our mission and will be there for the team and our partners.
Here are some key skills we're looking for:
- Experience of B2B sales
- Confidence when talking to decision makers and business owners
- Good at listening to client concerns and addressing them
- Being a good advocate (both for your clients and us).
- Able to think about solutions to problems and challenges
- A passion for management, even if you've not had experience before
- Ability to coach peers and junior members of the team
- Understanding how to use data to create a proposal a potential partner can't resist!
We believe that everyone brings something different to the table. So we’re interested in hearing from people of all backgrounds, including people who would like to job share or work flexibly.
What You'll Get From Us
- A starting salary of £35,000, with potential for significant bonuses, based on performance.
- Work alongside an experienced, passionate team of forward thinkers who want to make a difference for our customers
- Take the time you need to enjoy life outside of work. We offer 25 days annual leave, plus all bank holidays, plus an extra day off on your birthday!
- You'll also get an additional 1 day of leave for each year working with Zero Deposit.
- Work in the way that suits you; we care about what you achieve, not when you do it. Around half of our team have chosen to work 4-day weeks (with full pay), and everyone takes advantage of the flexibility in some way.
- Flexibility around where you work. Whether that's in our office in Stevenage, from home, or even another country - we want to make it work for you wherever we can.
- A working environment that supports and enables you. Our partnership with sanctus.io provides free and anonymous mental health, leadership, and life coaching.
- Company pension
- Life insurance
- Referral, wellness, and volunteering programmes
- Making a difference to the lives of thousands of tenants!
