Sales Development Representative (SDR)

The Role

As a Sales Development Representative at Watt Footprint, you will play a key role in driving the growth of the business by identifying, engaging, and qualifying potential customers. You’ll be the first point of contact for many organisations beginning their energy efficiency journey, helping them understand where they may be wasting energy and how Watt Footprint can support them.

This role is ideal for someone who enjoys speaking with people, asking smart questions, and uncovering opportunities. You’ll work closely with the Sales and Marketing teams to build a strong pipeline of qualified leads, setting up the wider sales team for success while developing your own commercial skills in a fast-growing energy-tech company.

You’ll have clear ownership of your targets and activities, with the support, training, and tools needed to succeed. As the company grows, there is strong potential for progression into a Sales Executive or broader commercial role.
