Job description

About the Role

  • We are looking for an ambitious, energetic graduate to join our team as a Sales Development Representative (SDR). This is an entry-level role designed to launch your career in technology sales.
  • You will be the first point of contact for prospective clients — identifying opportunities, generating qualified leads, and booking meetings for our senior sales and consulting teams.
  • You will receive structured training on our service offerings across Cloud, Cybersecurity, and AI, along with mentorship, sales methodology coaching, and a clear progression path toward Account Executive or Solutions Sales roles.
Key Responsibilities
  • Research and identify prospective clients across target industries using tools such as LinkedIn Sales Navigator, CRM platforms, and market databases
  • Generate new business opportunities through outbound prospecting: cold calls, personalised emails, and social selling
  • Qualify inbound leads from marketing campaigns, webinars, and events, and route them to the appropriate sales team members
  • Book discovery meetings and product/service demonstrations for Account Executives and Solutions Consultants
  • Learn and clearly articulate CloudPlexo's value proposition across cloud solutions, cybersecurity offerings, and AI consulting
  • Maintain accurate and up-to-date records of all prospect interactions in the CRM
  • Collaborate with marketing to provide feedback on campaign quality and messaging effectiveness
  • Consistently meet or exceed weekly and monthly targets for outreach activity, qualified leads, and booked meetings
  • Stay informed on cloud, cybersecurity, and AI industry trends to engage prospects in credible, relevant conversations
  • Participate fully in the graduate training programme, including sales methodology workshops, technical foundation courses, and shadowing senior colleagues
Requirements

What We're Looking For Essential:

  • A recent graduate (or final-year student) with a Bachelor's Degree in Business, Marketing, Computer Science, Information Technology, or a related field
  • Strong verbal and written communication skills, with the confidence to engage senior decision-makers
  • A genuine interest in technology — particularly cloud computing, cybersecurity, and AI
  • Self-motivated, resilient, and comfortable with rejection as part of the sales process
  • Excellent organisational skills and attention to detail
  • A coachable mindset and eagerness to learn
Desirable (Not Required):
  • Previous experience in sales, customer service, telemarketing, or a customer-facing role (including internships or part-time work)
  • Familiarity with CRM tools (e.g., ZohoCRM, HubSpot, Salesforce)
  • Basic understanding of cloud platforms
  • Experience using LinkedIn or other social platforms for professional networking
