Job Description

Graduate Sales Trainee — Cleveland, Ohio Onsite\n

Not sure what "sales" actually looks like day-to-day? Let's show you.

\n

This is a proper Graduate Sales Training Programme — not a job title with no substance behind it. You'll be taught, mentored, and developed from the ground up, learning the craft of face-to-face sales, customer engagement, and business development from people who've actually done it.

\n

We hire graduates because you bring something most sales teams are missing: fresh thinking. You've spent years learning how to research, argue a point, and adapt your approach to a new audience — whether that was a lecture hall, a dissertation panel, or a five-a-side team. That's exactly the mindset we build on.

\n

No sales experience needed. What we do need is someone who loves being around people, isn't afraid of a challenge, and actually wants to learn — because this programme moves fast, and it rewards people who lean in.

\n

What we're looking for:

\n
    \n
  • Graduates who are open to a completely new challenge, with no sales background required
  • \n
  • High energy and genuinely enjoy connecting with people and building customer relationships
  • \n
  • A real appetite to learn, develop, and grow — this is a training role, so mindset matters more than experience
  • \n
  • Candidates who are comfortable working onsite in Cleveland, Ohio and engaging directly with customers and members of the public
  • \n
\n

A typical day:

\n
    \n
  • Meet with your team each morning for a briefing on the day's location, campaign, and goals
  • \n
  • Head to your event site (high street, shopping centre, event, or campaign location) and get set up
  • \n
  • Approach and engage members of the public throughout the day, building rapport, identifying customer needs, and having genuine conversations
  • \n
  • Represent the brand or client, sharing what makes them worth people's time and attention
  • \n
  • Present products, services, or campaigns and guide interested people through next steps, whether that's a sign-up, sale, or connection to the brand
  • \n
  • Wrap up with a team debrief — sharing wins, learnings, and feedback to keep improving
  • \n
\n

What you'll get: structured sales training, a clear development path, and the chance to build a skill set that's genuinely hard to teach anywhere else.

\n

Expected Earnings: 800–1,000 per week

\n

If you're willing to learn, we're willing to invest in you.
