Job description

Join to apply for the Sales Development Representative – Oxford role at Furza

The Role

Behind every great business is a strong infrastructure; networks that are fast, secure, and scalable. Our client helps companies modernise their IT environments with cutting‑edge network and infrastructure solutions that keep them running smoothly.

After huge growth, they’re expanding and looking for bright, ambitious graduates to join their commercial team as a Sales Development Representative. This is an opportunity to get your foot in the door of a vital industry, develop in‑demand sales skills, and build a career in a space that’s only becoming more critical. No experience is required – you’ll start in Furza’s Academy where you will gain all the experience you need to succeed.

Your Role

This is a front‑line role in the sales process. Your goal is to spot opportunities, reach out to potential customers, and help them explore how better infrastructure could transform their operations.

• Reaching out via phone, email and LinkedIn to introduce solutions in areas such as cloud networking, data centre services or hybrid infrastructure
• Engaging key decision‑makers in IT, operations or procurement roles
• Asking the right questions to uncover pain points around speed, reliability or scalability
• Booking qualified meetings for the senior sales team to explore solutions in detail
• Using CRM tools to manage your pipeline and track conversations

This Could Be a Great Fit If You

• Are a recent graduate from any background
• Communicate clearly and confidently and enjoy conversations with new people
• Are curious about how technology supports business performance
• Want a role with structure, support, and clear long‑term growth
• Have the resilience to keep going when the first few conversations don’t go to plan
• Like to solve problems and ask thoughtful questions

What You’ll Get

• £30,000 base salary + on‑target earnings
• A clear progression plan into senior SDR, BDM or Account Executive roles
• Real‑world knowledge of IT infrastructure, networks and enterprise tech
• Ongoing support, performance reviews and career development plans
• Team culture that balances high performance with support, recognition and fun
• Other: hybrid working, life insurance, pension scheme, paid volunteer days, opportunities to travel in Europe and a wellness fund (gym memberships, healthcare appointments etc.)

Why Networking and Infrastructure?

It’s the backbone of the modern business world. As companies move more of their systems into the cloud and shift to hybrid operations, their networks need to be fast, flexible and secure. That makes infrastructure not just important but essential.

At Furza, we’re committed to promoting equality, diversity and inclusion. We encourage and welcome all applications from everyone, irrespective of background or circumstance. Apply today and our talent team will be in touch to support your requirements.
