Business Development Associate

Learn real B2B sales. Work alongside a senior operator. Build a career in one of the fastest-evolving tech-enabled industries.

• Mentored by a Senior BDM with 17 years’ experience — learn how deals are actually won
• Sell modern security solutions — including AI-enabled CCTV monitoring and alarm monitoring services
• Clear 4–5 year path to becoming a top salesperson with strong commission + company car

Why this role exists

This role exists to support Code 9’s sales growth — following up leads, onboarding customers, and helping convert opportunities into long-term clients.

The security industry is changing fast.

Traditional alarm monitoring is evolving into intelligent, tech-enabled monitoring — combining CCTV, remote monitoring, and AI-driven detection to deliver smarter, more proactive protection.

You’ll be learning how to sell modern security solutions that businesses are actively shifting towards.

What Makes This Different

This isn’t a sink-or-swim sales job.

You’ll work directly alongside a highly experienced Senior BDM, learning:

• how to prospect properly (not just cold call blindly)
• how to run meetings and uncover real client needs
• how to structure deals and close cleanly
• how to onboard and grow accounts long-term

Over time, you’ll move from supporting → contributing → owning:

• Year 1–2: Learn, support, build capability
• Year 2–3: Take ownership of smaller accounts
• Year 3–5: Manage larger, more complex clients

If you’re good, your earnings should reflect it — with commission designed so you benefit directly from the growth you create.

What You’ll Be Doing

You’ll be involved across the full sales cycle:

• Prospecting & market research — identifying target industries and opportunities
• Inbound lead response — fast follow-up, setting meetings, early engagement
• Customer onboarding — site visits, understanding needs, helping build quotes and contracts
• Account support — staying close to customers and stakeholders
• Internal coordination — working with ops, tech, and support teams to deliver what’s sold

This is how you actually learn sales — by being in it.

Who This Is Perfect For

This role is perfect for someone who:

• Has strong ambition and has genuinely been thinking about a career in sales
• Doesn’t yet have the perfect pathway — but wants to build one properly
• Is a go-getter: follows through, takes ownership, doesn’t wait to be told
• Is comfortable with technology (you’ll be working with systems, proposals, and modern security solutions)
• Wants to work in a team that is growing and pushing forward

You could be:

• Early in your career
• Coming from retail, hospitality, or another people-facing role
• In an entry-level sales role but lacking proper development
• Or sitting in a role thinking “I could be doing more”

What You’ll Get

• Hands-on development from a senior operator
• Exposure to real B2B sales, not watered-down tasks
• Strong commission structure (~20% of base for solid performance)
• Company car
• A role where, if you perform, your earnings can realistically double over ~4 years
