Join us as a Sales Graduate and be brave, be real, and join a community of graduates just like you. Spend time understanding our business, leaving a lasting impact and widening your skills, earning a starting salary of £35,000 whilst doing it!

Make things happen

Our scheme lasts 2-years, consisting of 3 rotations within our fast-paced, target-driven B2B organisation. You’ll experience areas of our sales divisions, working with customers in areas such as:

• SME (Small-Medium Enterprise)
• Enterprise
• Public Sector

You’ll master each of these areas, learning how to profile and tailor your approach to each customer, selling them the services that meet their needs. Learn how to drive marketing activity and content while getting to know our amazing products inside out. The customers you’ll work with are demanding, but very exciting, and you’ll have the opportunity to support them through their digital transformation using our products, ultimately improving their customers’ experience. This scheme will kick off in Manchester for the first 9 months, with the opportunity to work from Reading, London, Birmingham, or Manchester for the remainder of the scheme. We operate a hybrid working environment, aiming for a minimum of 2 to 3 days per week in the office, with strong emphasis on maintaining flexibility based on our dynamic business needs.

“The VMO2 Sales Graduate Scheme has essentially acted as an accelerated route on my personal sales career journey. Even on only my second rotation, I am fully integrated within a team of extremely talented and abundantly experienced sales professionals, whilst providing value with significant responsibility of my own. The skills I have gained, and will continue to gain across the business, will be invaluable in supporting my future career at VMO2.” - Riko Harrison, Sales Graduate, 2023 Cohort

Bring your authentic self

We’re brave, and we want to see Graduates that are resilient and can take challenges head-on. We’re real – we want to see your real personality, our Sales team work hard and have fun while they’re at it. We’re together, so it’s important you’re proactive and can work well with the wider team. Other skills we’d love to see include:

• Strong relationship building skills
• Great presentation skills
• A true passion and excitement for sales

You must have a 2:1 or above, although it doesn’t matter in which subject – we’re more interested in your qualities than your specific qualifications. With inclusivity at our hearts, we’re 100% committed to having a workforce that represents every part of our society, so we’re keen to hear from candidates of all backgrounds and circumstances. The only barrier to applying would be if you didn’t have the right to work in the UK and were unable to obtain it without our support.
