We have made a lot of noise recently about taking Procure Smart to the next level. This includes our wonderful new Sunderland HQ; the expansion into Manchester; new technology investment; and the arrival of our Head of People to spearhead growth.
But, what does that mean “on the ground” for our colleagues?
We possess huge experience in growing brilliant B2B salesforces and we know the sector inside out.
Most of the recruitment communications we see feature a list of financial package features, early finishes and monthly incentives. We believe that in a thriving sales organisation, these things are a given.
Whilst every sales professional is driven by financial success, we want to highlight how working towards your goals feels at Procure Smart. Here are some key reasons we think our working environment is one of the best in B2B sales.
Great supplier relationships
We know that sales can sometimes be a grind. Maybe you’ve nurtured a great lead to the point of presenting prices and realise it won’t quite get you over the line for your monthly target.
At Procure Smart, our varied supplier relationships don’t just provide a wide range of prices for our customers, they maximise the earning potential of our colleagues.
For a hard-working sales professional, having the right routes to market can make a tangible difference to your monthly earnings; and ours provide huge opportunities in this area.
Doing things the right way
We are vocal about the future of the business energy industry needing to improve. Our place as a founding member of the Energy Consultants Association (ECA) and our exemplary 4.9* Trustpilot rating is a useful way to demonstrate to customers that they are working with the right partner.
A certain “je ne sais quoi”
There is a warmth when you walk through the door of a Procure Smart office.
We work hard to ensure our people are challenged, supported and welcomed, particularly when they first join us. The result is long service, low attrition and a united team driving towards the same goal.
Many businesses in a broad range of sectors struggle to create the culture they desire, particularly since the pandemic and the rise of remote working. A combination of our SMART values, a clear set of expectations and a selective approach to recruiting the right people means the Procure Smart culture is welcoming, fun-filled and performance-focused.
Great service, supported by tech
We’re extremely proud of the support our technology provides our colleagues. Our industry-leading CRM, courtesy of UtilityClick, makes processing sales and managing workload super-simple for sales and account managers.
We are developing a UtilityClick customer portal to further enhance our customer proposition and provide automated task tracking, contract and bill wallets and other useful features; a great USP to provide extra value to customers during tough tender processes.
We also have our self-built comparison and switching platform, Switch Savvi. A first-of-its-kind tool, Switch Savvi allows customers to enter a few small details and run a market wide matrix search, browse available deals and complete their switch entirely online in a matter of minutes.
Not only is this a disruptive tool in the marketplace, but our sales colleagues can also refer businesses to Switch Savvi for simpler deal profiles and have the system do the hard comparison yards, then bank the revenue for their own performance figures.
We want the right people to build our culture
We believe culture is built from the ground up and led from the top. Every layer of our business, from leadership to frontline teams, aligns around a clear, shared purpose. We lead with authenticity, empower our people with ownership and trust, and hire those who reflect our values.
And making a move shouldn’t feel daunting or fearful, it’s a conversation with a member of our team to find out more about what we can offer. Reach out to see if your next move can contribute to our next level.
