Warning: This isn’t your average sales role at your average employment law firm.
If you’re tired of chasing dead-end leads, selling services no one really wants, or being treated like a dial machine, keep reading.
At Halborns, we’re not a traditional, stuffy law firm firing off templated emails and hoping for replies. We’re a straight-talking, solutions-focused team redefining how employment law works, and we need someone who can open the right doors.
We’re looking for a confident, proactive Sales Development Representative to help drive our next stage of growth.
This role is about starting meaningful conversations. You’ll lead outbound prospecting, qualify real opportunities, and book high-quality discovery and consultation meetings for our Business Development team.
You’ll engage with organisations ranging from SMEs to senior decision-makers in large enterprises, using phone, email and LinkedIn to uncover challenges and open the door to genuine business conversations.
