Want to be right at the centre of a high-performing outbound sales operation?

Let's be honest...

If you like slow days, quiet inboxes, and plenty of down time - this won't be for you.

But if you're organised, commercially switched on, and thrive when things are moving fast, you'll fit right in.

This is a role where you're trusted, relied on, and where your work directly impacts sales performance.

At Altius Group, we're one of the UK's leading business brokerages, closing hundreds of millions of pounds in business sales every year. Our outbound sales team is the engine room and strong diary management is critical to keeping that engine running properly.

We're growing fast and looking for a Diary Manager who can keep pace, think ahead, and take real ownership.

The Role

You'll be responsible for managing and optimising the diaries of our outbound sales team, making sure time is used properly, priorities make sense, and selling time is protected.
