Business Development Representative

Overview

OneClickComply is a rapidly expanding cyber security startup based in the North East, and the team is hiring a Business Development Representative to help accelerate growth. The company simplifies cyber security compliance by automating standards such as ISO 27001, Cyber Essentials, SOC 2 and similar frameworks from end to end, allowing businesses to become certified and remain secure without relying on costly consultants.

The business has already raised more than £2 million and operates in a UK cyber security market that is expected to reach about £16 billion by 2029. Demand in this space is described as strong and still increasing.

Role Summary

As the BDR, you will own the early stage of the sales process. Your focus will be identifying suitable companies, contacting prospects through phone, email and LinkedIn, qualifying interest, and scheduling demos for the sales team. Your main objective is to keep the pipeline full of the right conversations so that sales can progress effectively.

This role sits at the centre of a scaling business. You will work closely with the founder and the wider team, gain practical exposure to modern B2B SaaS sales, and have a clear progression path from Business Development Representative to Account Executive if you perform well.

What the Hiring Manager Is Looking For

The ideal candidate is motivated, well organised, and resilient when faced with rejection. You should be comfortable speaking with both technical decision-makers and senior business leaders on the same day. A coachable attitude, willingness to improve, and the ability to respond positively to feedback are important. Prior experience in sales or outbound prospecting is useful, but attitude and work ethic are considered more important than direct background.

No cyber security experience is required, as training on the subject will be provided.

Compensation and Growth

The package includes a competitive base salary with uncapped commission. The on-target earnings are £65,000, based on a £30,000 base salary. You will also join an early-stage team at a funded, fast-growing startup, receive genuine training and career development, and contribute to building an impactful business in Sunderland.

Additional Information

This opportunity is intended for people who are at an early stage in their sales career and want to prove themselves in a high-growth environment.
