Job Description
About Us
We are a forward-thinking Managed Service Provider (MSP) that focuses on delivering solution-led IT services to businesses. Our approach is consultative, ensuring we provide tailored technology solutions that drive business efficiency, security, and scalability. We work with mid-market and enterprise clients, offering services such as cloud solutions, cybersecurity, networking, and IT support.
The Group’s offices are based in London, Manchester, Newport and Edinburgh.
At SysGroup, our people are driven by passion, dedicated to their teams, colleagues, and the success of our business. We take pride in fostering a collaborative, friendly environment where teamwork and commitment fuel our achievements.
The role
We’re seeking a results-driven, high-energy Sales Executive who thrives in a high-commission, fast-paced environment. In this hunter role, you’ll be focused on generating new business, upselling and cross-selling to existing clients, identifying client pain points, and delivering tailored IT solutions that meet clients’ needs.
While we prefer candidates with MSP experience, we’re equally excited to hear from those with a background in solution selling (e.g., SaaS, IT services, telecoms, cybersecurity, cloud solutions, or complex B2B sales). We value consultative sales professionals who focus on delivering value, not just competing on price.
Key Responsibilities
- Prospect and Generate Leads – Identify and engage mid-market and enterprise clients who need IT solutions.
- Consultative Selling – Understand clients’ pain points and challenges, then position our MSP services as strategic solutions.
- Pipeline Management – Maintain a healthy sales pipeline, using CRM tools to track progress and forecast revenue.
- Client Relationship Building – Develop strong relationships with decision-makers, from IT managers to C-suite executives.
- Sales Negotiation & Closing – Manage the full sales cycle from first contact to contract signing.
- Collaboration with Technical Teams – Work closely with solution architects and engineers to develop tailored proposals.
Requirements
What we're looking for
- ✅ Proven B2B Sales Experience – Background in solution selling within IT services, SaaS, cloud, cybersecurity, telecoms, or a related field.
- ✅ Hunter Mentality – You thrive on new business, cold outreach, and closing deals.
- ✅ Consultative Approach – Ability to uncover client needs and sell solutions, not just products.
- ✅ Strong Communication & Negotiation Skills – Comfortable engaging with C-level executives and IT decision-makers.
- ✅ Tech-Savvy & Business-Minded – Understanding of IT solutions and their business impact (you don’t need to be an engineer, but you need to sell the value).
Benefits
- Hybrid working
- 25 days annual leave (plus bank holidays)
- Pension scheme
- Cash plan medical care
- Private medical insurance
- Life insurance
