Telesales Executive (Warm Leads) - Waste & Recycling

Location: Wingrave (office-based)
Positions available: 3 roles
Basic salary: £27,000 - £36,000 (DOE)
Commission: Uncapped
OTE: £50,000+ (performance dependent)

Join a growth business on a mission

We're Waste King - a specialist waste management company on a major growth journey towards £20m turnover, and we're expanding the team to match that ambition.

If you've got enthusiasm, enjoy being on the phone, and back yourself to earn well in a target driven environment, this is a role where you can build a genuine sales career, not just "do a job".

You'll be joining a business with deep industry experience, strong leadership, and a close knit local team that takes pride in doing things properly.

The Role

This is a warm lead telesales role. You'll spend your day speaking with people who already have a reason to talk to us - inbound enquiries and customers we already know.

  • Answering inbound calls and converting warm enquiries into booked business
  • Outbound follow up on quotes and enquiries - creating momentum, handling objections, and closing confidently
  • Re engaging lapsed customers to win back business and rebuild relationships (consultative, professional, no pushy scripts)
  • Managing quotes and follow ups to keep your pipeline active and moving
  • Maintaining strong CRM hygiene and call metrics - measured on activity, conversion, and pipeline value

Important: This is a sales focused role designed to protect selling time, so you can concentrate on converting demand and building pipeline - not being buried in admin.

Training & Onboarding (built for success)

We don't throw people in at the deep end. You'll receive:

  • Full onboarding
  • A structured 9 month training plan, covering:
    • Products and services
    • Compliance basics
    • Call coaching
    • Objection handling
    • Closing techniques
    • Role play and live support

We invest properly so the role becomes a success for both the company and the individual.

What We're Looking For

We're looking for people with confidence, enthusiasm, and the hunger to do well.

You'll likely be:
  • A confident communicator, with a strong phone manner, who can build rapport quickly
  • Sales minded and motivated by targets - you want to win, and you want to earn
  • Organised and consistent with follow ups and admin - you do what you say you'll do
  • Customer first, delivering a great experience every time

Previous telesales experience is a plus, but we'll also back high potential, coachable people who are competitive, driven, and ready to learn.

What You Get
  • £27,000 - £36,000 basic salary (DOE)
  • Uncapped commission with strong upside (OTE £50,000+)
  • Supportive, high performing team with realistic, achievable targets
  • 28 days' holiday (rising annually up to 5 years) + pension
  • Proper product knowledge, structure, and ongoing development
