Jumpstart - Graduate Sales Programme

Finding a grad job sucks (trust us, we’ve been there). Countless assessments and dozens of video interviews, only to find yourself in a corporate job you don’t love. 

That’s why we flipped the job search on its head. With Jumpstart, top startup sales roles find you. 

Every fortnight, you'll get access to sales roles in the UK's fastest-growing & most exciting startups, all pitched to YOU.

We’ll provide you with all the interview training you need to nail your interviews & once you’ve landed a role, you’ll join our 500+ community for access to ongoing career development & support. 

How does it work? 

1. Apply in 30 seconds -  You’ll be invited to a short virtual interview & if successful, you’ll be onboarded onto our sales stream.
2. Get access to high-growth startup sales roles every fortnight -  all pitched to you by founders or sales leads (via pre-recorded videos) so you can see if the role is the right fit for you.
3. Startups connect with you -  apply to your favourite roles & have startups apply to you for roles they think you’re perfect for. 
4. Support to nail your interviews -  perfect your sales interviews with individual interview support. You’ll have everything you need to land your dream role.
5. Join “the best startup community in London” -  once you land a role, you’ll join the Jumpstart community for access to everything you need to grow - think mentorship, events, training, socials & more. 

On average, it takes 4 weeks to receive an offer and you can participate in the programme whilst in full-time work. 

What will my day-to-day responsibilities look like?

• Outbounding -  trialling different ways to reach potential customers, using automation and AI tools to speed prospecting
• Cold calls -  persuading cold leads to convert over the phone, honing communication skills
• Running demos and closing -  unlike in corporates, you will look after the full sales cycle!
• Analysis & feedback -  honing the startup’s ideal customer profile, evaluating what has/hasn’t worked and iterating on your prospecting process
