Energy Sales | Business Development Consultant

Launch your sales career in recruitment with VIQU Energy
Are you currently working in sales, business development, or a target-driven B2B environment and looking for your next step? Perhaps you’ve built strong commercial skills in areas such as energy sales, telecoms, SaaS, or outbound B2B sales and want a career with bigger earning potential, faster progression, and long-term opportunities.

At VIQU Energy, we’re looking for ambitious, resilient and commercially minded individuals to join us as Energy Sales Consultants, with a strong focus on sales, business development and generating new client relationships. This role will be heavily focused on selling contract and permanent recruitment solutions to the energy, renewables and utilities industries.

You don’t need recruitment experience, if you can sell, build relationships, and thrive in a performance-led environment, we can teach you the rest.

The role

As an Energy Sales Consultant, you’ll be trained to become a full 360 consultant, with a strong emphasis on the sales and revenue-generating side of recruitment within the energy, renewables and utilities industries across the country.

From day one, you’ll work closely with experienced managers and top billers who will coach you 1:1 and support your development.

You’ll learn how to:

• Proactively win new business and develop new client relationships
• Identify sales opportunities within your market
• Conduct business development calls and meetings with decision-makers
• Build and manage your own client portfolio
• Negotiate fees, terms, and offers
• Deliver against revenue and billing targets
• Manage the full recruitment lifecycle from client acquisition to placement

This is a fast-paced, target-driven role where your effort directly impacts your earnings and progression.

Who we’re looking for:

We’re particularly keen to hear from people with experience in:

• B2B sales (energy, utilities, telecoms, SaaS, professional services, etc.)
• Business development or account management
• Outbound / phone-based sales environments
• Estate agency, lettings, or property sales
• Any role where you’ve worked to KPIs, targets, or commission

You’ll be a strong fit if you are:

• Commercially driven and money-motivated
• Confident speaking to senior stakeholders
• Resilient and comfortable with rejection
• Competitive, proactive, and results-focused
• Keen to build a long-term career, not just a job
