Position Overview

The Junior Account Executive plays a key role in driving new business growth for Quantanite by identifying, developing, qualifying, and progressing commercial opportunities across target markets. This role is suited to a commercially mature sales professional who can operate beyond traditional lead generation, confidently navigate complex sales narratives, and engage prospects around strategic business challenges, operational transformation, and technology-enabled customer experience solutions.

Reporting into the Sales Leadership function, the Junior Account Executive will work across outbound prospecting, opportunity qualification, early-stage deal progression, and structured pipeline development. The role requires someone who understands modern Go-To-Market motions, can use sales acceleration tools effectively, and is comfortable engaging economic buyers early in the sales process.

This is a target-driven role for someone who can combine disciplined outbound execution with consultative questioning, commercial judgement, and the ability to identify where Quantanite can create meaningful value for prospective clients.

Key Responsibilities

Sales Development, Opportunity Creation & Pipeline Progression

Identify, research, and engage prospective clients across Quantanite’s target markets, with a focus on organisations that may benefit from technology-enabled customer experience, call centre, BPO, consulting, AI, or operational transformation solutions.

Execute structured outbound campaigns using multi-touch and multi-modal GTM cadences across phone, email, LinkedIn, and approved sales acceleration platforms.

Develop and progress qualified commercial opportunities, moving beyond initial interest to understand the prospect’s current state, strategic pain points, decision-making structure, and potential business value.

Engage prospects in commercially meaningful conversations that uncover the “why behind the why” and identify whether a real, valuable, and winnable opportunity exists.

Confidently articulate Quantanite’s value proposition, including how our blend of AI, technology, operational expertise, and human capability can help clients solve strategic business challenges.

Secure early access to appropriate senior stakeholders and economic buyers to improve opportunity quality, deal momentum, and probability of win.

Support the development of mutually agreed benefits and business outcomes that clearly exceed cost and demonstrate measurable value to the prospect.

GTM Execution, Sales Technology & Sales Acceleration

Use modern sales acceleration and GTM tools such as Orum, Clay, Lemlist, Unify, LinkedIn Sales Navigator, and similar platforms to increase prospecting effectiveness and pipeline quality.

Build, refine, and execute targeted outbound sequences, using data-led prospecting and account research to improve relevance and conversion.

Apply advanced GTM motions and multi-touch cadences to identify, engage, and convert high-potential prospects.

Leverage CRM systems and associated automations to manage sales activity, improve efficiency, and maintain accurate pipeline visibility.

Create or configure basic automations within CRM or sales engagement tools to improve workflow efficiency, follow-up discipline, and reporting accuracy.

Maintain accurate and up-to-date records of prospect interactions, opportunity status, next steps, qualification criteria, and forecasted pipeline value.

Qualification, Commercial Judgement & Reporting

Apply recognised sales qualification frameworks or methodologies to assess opportunity quality, buyer intent, value potential, and sales readiness.

Accurately determine whether an opportunity has genuine funnel value by assessing budget, authority, need, timeline, strategic fit, and buyer motivation.

Operate within formal pre-sales reporting structures, providing clear visibility of activity, conversion, pipeline generation, opportunity quality, and quota progress.

Carry and manage individual sales targets, contributing to pipeline creation, qualified opportunity progression, and revenue growth.

Provide structured feedback to Sales Leadership on market trends, prospect objections, campaign performance, and opportunities to improve messaging or targeting.

Collaboration & Continuous Improvement

Work closely with Sales Leadership, Account Executives, Marketing, Solutions, and Operations teams to align outbound messaging, target account strategy, and opportunity handover.

Participate in sales meetings, coaching sessions, pipeline reviews, and performance discussions.

Continuously refine outreach techniques, qualification discipline, objection handling, and commercial storytelling.

Stay informed on Quantanite’s service offerings, AI-enabled capabilities, value propositions, industry positioning, and target markets.

Contribute to a high-performance sales culture built on accountability, curiosity, learning, and measurable impact.
