About Via

Via is an exciting AI-powered recruitment platform that delivers pre-qualified candidate shortlists in 24 hours. We work with FTSE 100/250 employers across a range of sectors to fill white-collar roles faster and at a fraction of the cost of traditional agencies.

Our matching algorithms are trained by working recruiters – not generic AI – and we have over 100,000 candidates on the platform already.


The role

We’re hiring Sales Executives to scale Via’s UK enterprise sales motion. You’ll be the engine of our growth — opening new accounts through outbound cold calling, converting prospects through high-quality in-person meetings, and managing the relationships that turn first deals into long-term subscriptions.

This is a hands-on, hunter-led role working directly with the founder, with significant earning potential. Ideal for someone who wants to be a meaningful early hire in a fast-growing B2B vertical AI business with strong existing traction.


Key responsibilities

  • Cold-call senior HR, Head of Talent, COO, CFO and CEO contacts at UK mid-market and enterprise companies
  • Book and conduct in-person discovery and demo meetings with target prospects
  • Manage the full sales cycle from first contact through to closed-won
  • Sell Via’s job-slot subscription model (£15–18k per slot per year, with multi-slot deals the norm for larger clients)
  • Build and maintain client relationships through onboarding, working alongside our Candidate Success team
  • Represent Via at industry events, in-person networking, and on LinkedIn
  • Maintain accurate pipeline data in our CRM
  • Provide market feedback to product and leadership teams


What we’re looking for

Essential

  • 2–4+ years of B2B or services sales experience
  • Demonstrable track record of hitting and exceeding sales targets
  • Strong cold-calling and outbound prospecting skills — genuinely comfortable picking up the phone
  • Confident in face-to-face meetings with senior stakeholders
  • Excellent written and verbal communication
  • UK-based, willing to travel for client meetings (London-centric, but UK-wide where needed)
  • Comfortable in a fast-paced, early-stage environment

Nice to have

  • Existing relationships with HR, Talent or operations leaders at UK mid-market companies
  • Previous experience selling SaaS subscriptions in the £10–50k ACV range
  • Background in recruitment, RPO or HR tech sales
  • Experience at an early-stage company


Compensation

  • Base salary: £30,000–£40,000 depending on experience
  • Uncapped commission
  • 25 days holiday plus bank holidays
  • Hybrid working after probation: London office or home-based, with regular client travel


Why join us

  • One of the first dedicated sales hires at a fast-growing AI-powered recruitment business
  • Direct working relationship with the founder, with real autonomy and impact
  • Product is genuinely proven – six paying enterprise customers already
  • Real career progression as we scale
  • Meaningful equity participation
