Graduate Sales Executive

Zero Surplus
City of London, Greater London
Graduate Sales Executive - B2B Services
(No Experience Required - Full Training Provided)

Are you a recent graduate looking to kick-start a high-impact career - not just find your first job?

This is an outstanding opportunity to join a fast-growing, specialist provider of print, workflow, and automation solutions. The business is known for delivering an exceptional customer experience and for developing high-performing sales talent from the ground up.

If you're ambitious, motivated, and ready to begin a professional career with real progression, this could be exactly the launchpad you're looking for.


Why This Opportunity Stands Out

This company doesn't just bring graduates on board - they develop them.

You'll take part in one of the most comprehensive graduate training programmes in the industry, led directly by the business owners. They invest significant time, coaching, and structured development into every new starter across their first two years and beyond.

You'll begin in a consultative outbound sales role, learning how to engage decision-makers, uncover opportunities, and book high-quality meetings. As your skills grow, you'll transition into client-facing sales - running meetings, managing your own pipeline, and closing deals.

The environment is close-knit, positive, and genuinely supportive. The team celebrates wins together, encourages personal development, and has exceptional retention because people stay to build careers, not just CVs.

What You'll Be Doing

Speaking with businesses daily to introduce a premium suite of print and automation services
Identifying opportunities, generating leads, and booking meetings for senior consultants
Learning how to position high-value solutions and communicate ROI
Building strong rapport with stakeholders across a range of industries
Working closely with a talented team and receiving ongoing 1:1 mentorship
Progressing into a field-facing sales role as you developWho We're Looking For

Recent or soon-to-be graduates seeking a real career path
Ambitious, driven individuals with a strong desire to develop
Confident communicators who enjoy building relationships
Resilient personalities with a positive, proactive approach
Team players who thrive in a supportive, high-performance culture
People motivated by progression, achievement, and long-term successNo prior sales experience is needed - the company provides full, structured training.

The Opportunity

This role is challenging, fast-paced, and ideal for graduates who want to progress quickly. The rewards are significant for those who commit, which includes exceptional training, a clear development pathway, and genuine earning potential that can become life-changing within a few years.

You'll be joining a rapidly expanding business with industry-leading service quality and a strong track record of developing graduate talent.

The role is based in central London just off Tower Bridge Road, with office days Monday to Thursday and an optional work-from-home Friday.

If you're a graduate ready to build a meaningful career in B2B sales with real support and real progression - this is one of the strongest entry-level opportunities on the market.
