Role
Who you are
- Sales Flair & Ambition: You are a natural communicator who is comfortable "asking for the sale" and is hungry to exceed targets
- Self-Starters: As a remote role, you must be self-motivated, disciplined, and driven to benefit from our commission structures
- Coachability: You possess the intelligence and drive to complete a rigorous training programme and adopt our market-leading processes
- Attention to Detail: You understand that elite sales results are built on diligent admin, follow-ups, and CRM hygiene
- Resilience: You thrive in a performance-focused environment and enjoy the rhythm of a high-volume, consultative sales desk
What the job involves
- Avado is expanding. We are looking for high-energy, ambitious individuals to join our well-established sales team as Course Advisors. This role serves as a fast-track entry point into our high-performance sales organisation, specifically designed for those with strong sales flair and competence who are ready to move into a high-volume, consultative role selling a best-in-market product
- You will be joining a team with an average tenure of 8 years—a testament to our culture and success. Selling for the UK’s leading brand in professional qualifications, you will enrol on a structured and robust training programme designed to get you billing and achieving commission within your first two months. With a constant feed of warm leads from our marketing team, this is an exceptional opportunity for growth-minded individuals to thrive in a market-leading environment
- As a Course Advisor, you are a key driver of our enrolment team. This is a fast-paced, high-activity sales role focused on converting high-quality, warm enquiries. There is no cold calling
- You will act as an advisor for aspiring professionals, using your sales expertise to guide them toward the right CIPD qualification. Success in this role requires a balance of persuasive flair and a commitment to operational excellence. While the role is advisory, it is a performance-driven sales position where your earning potential is directly linked to your results
- This is a fantastic opportunity for someone early in their sales career looking to grow in a purpose-led, high-performing business
- High-Volume Engagement: Manage a consistent flow of warm leads via inbound/outbound calls and emails, turning interest into enrolments
- Consultative Selling: Identify career goals to recommend the most suitable CIPD Level 3, 5, or 7 qualification
- Diligent Pipeline Management: Take full ownership of your sales funnel, ensuring every lead is nurtured with pace and precision
- Data Accuracy: Maintain 100% accuracy within our CRM systems. We pride ourselves on best-in-class lead management, and your attention to detail is critical
- Market Expertise: Rapidly build knowledge of CIPD standards and Avado’s learning model to handle objections and provide expert guidance
- Target Achievement: Work toward monthly enrolment targets to unlock a very generous commission and accelerator scheme
Our take
Avado offers practical programs for businesses to equip themselves with the requisite digital knowledge, competency and behaviour in an attempt to fill the growing digital skills gap.
Since its conception in 2016, Avado has positioned itself as a key player in the digital learning space, delivering programs to thousands of businesses worldwide, including CNN, The Walt Disney Company, American Express and GSK. Its services have since become an industry standard given the quality, with the Department of Education employing Avado to run critical skills bootcamps.
With time, Avado has broadened its mission, recently partnering with BT Group to create FastFuture programmes to support thousands of adults from underrepresented backgrounds to gain employment skills. After recently anointing a new CEO, it will be interesting to see how else Avado will transform the industry moving forward.
