Role Overview

This role is an excellent opportunity for someone looking to build or develop their career in SAAS sales focusing on the UK Agency sector. You will be responsible for managing the full sales cycle -from identifying and engaging with prospective organisations, conducting needs analysis, and delivering tailored demos of the Vuelio product to negotiating terms and closing deals.


While you will have support from our lead generation team to respond to inbound leads and follow up on targeted marketing campaigns, you will also play an active role in generating new opportunities. This will involve prospecting and outreach activities, so an enthusiasm for building relationships, strong communication skills, and a proactive approach to learning the fundamentals of quota-bearing sales are key to success in this role.

Key Responsibilities

Identify and engage with decision-makers in PR and PA Agency businesses, tailoring your approach to their unique needs and priorities. Generate sales opportunities through proactive outreach, including targeted calls and emails, working from lists within our Salesforce CRM system and leveraging your initiative to identify new leads. Research and prepare for sales meetings- whether via phone, video call, or in-person- conducting a thorough needs analysis of the organisation's objectives and presenting the company's software as a solution to their challenges. Develop a strong understanding of pricing structures and confidently discuss options to ensure they align with the prospect's needs. Accurately forecast revenue, manage longer-term pipeline opportunities, and maintain a clear view of progress toward sales targets. Collaborate with the Agency Pod, our Insights, Political & Marketing teams to co-ordinate specific campaigns and outreach initiatives tailored to the PR and PA Agency audience, providing feedback on campaign success. Build and maintain a strong understanding of the company's full product portfolio--including PR, Public Affairs, and Stakeholder solutions--and demonstrate how these tools can deliver value to PR and PA agency businesses. Represent the company at relevant events, networking opportunities, and industry meetups to raise awareness of our offerings and establish meaningful connections within the PR and PA Agency sector. Champion the Vuelio and ResponseSource brands and vision both internally and externally, advocating for the benefits our solutions provide to the PR and PA Agency sector.

All staff have a responsibility and an essential role to play in safeguarding Pulsar Group's information and that of its customers. You are required to take all reasonable steps to comply with the Pulsar Group Information Security Policy and the policies and processes outlined in the Pulsar Group Information Security Management System (ISMS).


We can all play a part in creating the inclusive and diverse environment that enables us to do our best work through being welcoming to others, considerate of difference, responsible in our behaviour, constructive in disagreement and open to learn.
