Telephone Business Development Manager (4893)

Are you an excellent communicator with a skill for building relationships and spotting opportunities to develop sales? Would you love to be part of a motivated, friendly and supportive team in a role in which you can expect to receive lots of training, coaching and recognition?

If so, you could be a great fit to join our Intermediary team as a Telephone Business Development Manager. We are looking for a new person to join our busy team in a role in which you'll speak to other businesses including brokers and intermediary firms. You'll act as an expert on intermediary queries and conduct telephone and email campaigns to drive sales performance.

What do we offer you?

We have a hybrid working model, where in this role you can work 2 days from home, with the rest of your time being based at our brand new, sustainable head office in Leeds city centre, just 5 minutes' walk from the train station.

We also offer a competitive rewards package including:

  • Matched pension contributions
  • 26 days holiday, plus holiday purchase scheme
  • Development opportunities
  • Volunteering days

Our friendly, supportive culture will help you be the best you can be — now and in the future. 

About the role

The role is phone based and you will build effective relationships with intermediary firms and brokers. You will take in bound calls from brokers and assess if the request meets our lending criteria, deal with general enquiries and take ownership of complaints. The team also use a web based chat system so any previous experience of a similar system will be beneficial.

  • Experience of working in financial services
  • Previous experience of communicating via live chat
