About DripCEO


DripCEO is a growth-focused business building products, services and commercial opportunities for ambitious customers and partners. We value initiative, creativity, clear communication and practical ideas that produce measurable results.

We are looking for a confident and commercially minded Business Development and Sales Outreach Manager to help expand our UK customer base, generate qualified opportunities and build long-term business relationships.

The role

You will take responsibility for identifying prospective customers, starting meaningful sales conversations and converting interest into qualified commercial opportunities.

This is a hands-on position for someone who is comfortable researching potential clients, conducting outbound outreach, following up consistently and presenting the value of DripCEO’s products and services professionally.

You will work closely with company leadership to improve sales messaging, test new outreach strategies and support the continued growth of the business.

Main responsibilities
  • Research and identify suitable prospective customers, partners and commercial opportunities.
  • Contact prospects through telephone calls, email, LinkedIn and other appropriate professional channels.
  • Clearly explain DripCEO’s products, services and commercial value.
  • Qualify leads by understanding their requirements, budgets, decision-making processes and expected timescales.
  • Arrange sales calls, demonstrations and meetings with interested prospects.
  • Maintain professional and consistent follow-up with potential customers.
  • Build and manage a reliable pipeline of qualified sales opportunities.
  • Keep accurate records of outreach activity, conversations and next steps.
  • Work toward agreed outreach, meeting, pipeline and revenue targets.
  • Provide regular updates on performance, market feedback and customer objections.
  • Help improve sales scripts, email sequences, proposals and promotional materials.
  • Identify potential strategic partnerships, referral relationships and new routes to market.
  • Represent DripCEO professionally at meetings, events and relevant networking opportunities.
  • Develop a strong understanding of the company website, product offering and target customers.
Experience and skills

We would like to hear from applicants who have:

  • Experience in sales outreach, business development, appointment setting, lead generation or a related commercial role.
  • Strong written and spoken English.
  • Confidence communicating with business owners, managers and decision-makers.
  • The ability to explain products and services clearly and persuasively.
  • Good research, organisation and time-management skills.
  • A professional and persistent approach to following up with prospects.
  • The ability to work independently while remaining accountable for results.
  • Confidence using email, telephone, LinkedIn, customer relationship management systems and standard office software.
  • A responsible approach to handling customer and commercial information.
  • The right to work in the United Kingdom.

Experience in digital services, e-commerce, technology, marketing, professional services or online business development would be beneficial but is not essential.

What success looks like

Success in this position will be measured through the quality and consistency of outreach, qualified meetings generated, pipeline development, customer conversions and the strength of the commercial relationships created.

The successful applicant will be expected to balance activity targets with professional, customer-focused communication. We value sustainable business relationships rather than aggressive or misleading sales practices.

What we offer
  • A full-time salaried position.
  • Flexible working arrangements by agreement.
  • Direct access to company leadership and decision-makers.
  • The opportunity to contribute ideas and influence the company’s sales strategy.
  • Clear objectives and opportunities to take on greater responsibility as the business grows.
  • Practical training on DripCEO’s products, services and sales approach.
  • A supportive, entrepreneurial environment where initiative is valued.
  • Opportunities for professional development within sales, partnerships and commercial growth.
Our culture

DripCEO is building a proactive, ambitious and performance-focused culture. We encourage employees to take ownership of their work, communicate openly and look for creative ways to solve commercial challenges.

We welcome applicants who are motivated by growth, enjoy speaking with new people and want their work to have a visible impact on the development of a business.

Application process

Applicants may be asked to visit dripceo to familiarise themselves with the company and provide a brief opinion on its commercial potential.

Applicants will never be required to purchase a product, make a payment or provide financial information as part of the recruitment process.

Please submit your CV together with a brief explanation of your relevant sales or business development experience.
