Business Development Manager

Cyclr is growing and we are seeking to recruit a talented salesperson to our team. Previous experience in selling software applications remotely is key. Even better if you have worked for any kind of Platform as a Service company. We are more focussed on the individual and are flexible on the number of years’ experience you have.

You will be expected to hunt out opportunities using industry standard sales tools and processes and will be ready to show how you have done that successfully before. The business does generate a significant number of inbound enquiries, and our expectation is that 50% of your time will be spent on inbound opportunity management and 50% on outbound activities and management.  

About us

Cyclr is a powerful SaaS integration toolkit. Our clients are typically other software companies, digital agencies, and technically-literate enterprises. With Cyclr, clients can quickly create, manage, and deliver an amplified suite of integrations from within their own application.

Customers can be large or small and the audience is generally very tech savvy. Our clients can come from anywhere in the world and we regularly sell to North America, Australasia and Europe. 

The salesperson’s role is to understand and interpret client requirements, communicate the benefits of using a platform such as Cyclr and to interact with the wider Cyclr team to draw-in technical expertise as required in the sales process. 

The role reports to the Sales Director. Salary is based on experience and there are appropriate performance incentives. 

We’re a young but growing business

Cyclr is growing fast. It will be exciting, things will evolve quickly, and you will get experience working on diverse projects. You are joining our business at a formative stage and have an opportunity to influence our development direction and growth and you will be helping to establish the foundations of a very large company.

Working at Cyclr

We set out to be a flexible and adaptable employer. We believe that the best teams perform off the back of their own application and initiative and not because they are all made to fit in the same box. The most important thing to us is that you perform your role, deliver against expectation and that you are happy. We expect you to be responsible at work and to this end, we offer a high degree of responsibility when it comes to some of the more standard terms of employment.
