About Alignify

Alignify is a smart recruitment platform that matches candidates with opportunities aligned with their skills, goals and preferences.

We help candidates find better roles with fewer applications and employers connect with highly relevant talent. Our mission is to make recruitment faster, more transparent and more effective for everyone involved.

The Opportunity

Looking to start your career in sales? You don’t need previous sales experience. Your attitude, ambition and willingness to learn matter most.

We’re looking for a motivated graduate to join Alignify at an exciting stage of our growth. You’ll receive training, regular coaching and practical support to build your confidence and develop valuable commercial skills.

The role is expected to focus on sales development (SDR): speaking with prospective employers, introducing Alignify and booking qualified meetings for the wider sales team.

Calling will be a central part of your day, so you’ll need to feel comfortable picking up the phone and starting conversations. You don’t need a polished sales pitch on day one—we’ll help you develop that. You do need enthusiasm, consistency and the determination to keep going when a conversation doesn’t lead to a meeting.

This is your chance to join a startup, make a visible contribution and grow with the company as it grows.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Calling prospective employers and introducing Alignify
• Speaking with business owners, hiring managers and other decision-makers
• Learning about their recruitment needs and explaining how Alignify could help
• Generating interest and booking qualified meetings
• Following up by telephone and email
• Keeping accurate records in our CRM
• Working towards clear daily and weekly targets
• Taking part in coaching and putting feedback into practice
• Sharing ideas and feedback to help improve our sales approach

What We’re Looking For

Attitude comes first. No previous sales experience is required.

You’ll be someone who:

• Is ambitious and excited to build a career in sales
• Is comfortable making regular outbound calls
• Communicates clearly and enjoys meeting new people
• Is willing to learn, take feedback and try again
• Brings energy, focus and a strong work ethic
• Can handle rejection positively and maintain momentum
• Takes responsibility for their work and can stay organised when working remotely
• Has excellent spoken and written English
• Has a quiet working environment suitable for frequent calls
• Can attend the London office one day per week, likely Friday

You may be a recent graduate or at the beginning of your career. We’re interested in your potential and how you approach a challenge.

Training and Support

We’ll give you the tools and support to get started, including:

• Full product and sales training
• Ongoing coaching, call feedback and support
• A laptop and the equipment you need
• Calling software, CRM and lead-management tools
• Prospect information and target accounts
• Clear expectations and achievable milestones as you develop

You’ll learn by doing, with coaching to help you improve along the way. As Alignify grows, there will be opportunities to develop your skills and take on greater responsibility.

Earnings

Our pay structure rewards the results you achieve:

• £40 daily base
• £50 for every qualified meeting
• Uncapped commission
• Total pay will always meet or exceed the applicable statutory minimum wage for all hours worked

Our previous results indicate that a strong, consistent performer can book approximately four qualified meetings per day.

4 meetings × £40 = £160 commission

£160 commission + £40 daily base = £200 per day

Across 260 working days, this equates to potential annualised earnings of £58,000. With uncapped commission, exceeding four qualified meetings per day could mean earning considerably more.

These figures illustrate earning potential and are not guaranteed. Actual earnings depend on individual performance and days worked.
