About the role
Learn how research and careful questions support a useful sales conversation. You will work on practice research, outreach drafts and sample opportunity records before any activity requiring account access or commercial authority.
What you will practise
- Compare a business's public information with a service brief and record a reasoned fit assessment.
- Draft discovery questions and organise a sample CRM record with clear next actions.
What you will learn
- Learn how research, qualification, accurate communication, and handover support a useful sales process.
- Document your work, respond to feedback, and explain what is ready for review and what still needs help.
What you should bring
- Clear writing, basic research and spreadsheet skills, and an interest in understanding business problems.
- Willingness to ask questions, keep clear notes, and revise work after feedback. Professional experience is not required.
Examples of work in this role
- A sourced prospect research exercise and reviewed outreach draft.
- A sample opportunity summary separating known facts, assumptions and questions.
Working arrangements
- Keep progress, questions, and blockers visible through the agreed communication channels.
- Availability, working hours, equipment needs, and any location eligibility requirements will be discussed during recruitment.
- Training tasks require review. Supervision, school requirements, training hours, start date, and any allowance must be agreed before the placement begins.
- Live systems, publishing, and client commitments require authorisation. Begin with practice environments or reviewed drafts appropriate to the task.
What to include in your application
- Use the application form and include your CV, availability, and a short explanation of why this work interests you.
- Include a school or personal project where possible. If this is a school OJT placement, state your course, required hours, intended dates, and any school documentation requirements.
- Share a research or communication exercise. Explain how you checked a fact and which question you would ask before recommending a service.
- Share only work you have permission to disclose. A redacted sample or a clear explanation is fine when client work is confidential.
