Are you confident speaking to people over the phone? Looking to launch your career in sales, business, or marketing?
Manpower is recruiting on behalf of a global leader in advanced technology solutions for a Lead Generation Trainee to join their commercial team in Lutterworth. This is an exciting opportunity designed to give you the skills, knowledge, and support to develop into a high-performing sales professional - no prior sales experience required.
What's the Opportunity?
As a Trainee, you'll join a structured development programme where you'll be trained in how to identify new business opportunities, speak with decision-makers, and support the wider sales team. You'll spend your time on the phone engaging with potential customers, updating records in our CRM system, and learning how a global business generates and develops sales opportunities.
This is a hands-on, office-based role where you'll be surrounded by experienced sales professionals, receive regular coaching, and gain real insight into the world of commercial sales.
What You'll Be Doing
- Making outbound calls to potential customers (businesses, not consumers)
- Asking the right questions to uncover interest and opportunities
- Booking appointments or demonstrations for the external sales team
- Researching contacts and accounts using tools like LinkedIn
- Updating internal systems (CRM) with key lead information
- Supporting marketing and sales campaigns
- Shadowing experienced salespeople in the field to learn on the job
What We're Looking For
- Someone comfortable talking to people on the phone - from retail, hospitality, or any customer-facing background
- A willingness to learn, take feedback, and grow your skillset
- Enthusiastic, self-motivated, and ready to take on a new challenge
- Well organised, reliable, and confident using basic IT systems
- Ideally a recent graduate (or equivalent) looking to start a career in sales or marketing
- A full UK driving licence (for occasional field-based training)
What You'll Get in Return
- Realistic OTE up to £33,000 with performance bonus
- Full training and mentoring from day one
- 23 days holiday + bank holidays
- Company pension scheme
- Structured career development path
- Monday-Thursday 08:30-17:15 | Friday 08:30-16:00
- A welcoming team and a global brand on your CV
If you're confident, curious, and looking to build your career in a company that invests in your development - we'd love to hear from you.
Apply today through Manpower to kickstart your career in sales.
