Sales Trainer
At Charity Link, we connect people with causes that change lives. Our nationwide team of passionate fundraisers engage the public in meaningful conversations that inspire long-term giving for some of the UK's most impactful charities.
We're proud of our people-first culture, where empathy, integrity, and purpose fuel high performance. Now, we're looking for a Sales Trainer to help new fundraisers succeed from day one.
The Role
As a Sales Trainer, you'll play a vital role in setting our new fundraisers up for success. Working face-to-face in real fundraising environments, you'll coach new starters during their first three months, guiding them through hands-on development at private sites and residential areas.
This is a field-based role with regular travel across regions. You'll model what great looks like: smart working habits, mental resilience, and exceptional communication skills. There will also be some weekend working and occasional overnight stays away, depending on business needs, so a flexible and proactive approach to planning your time is key.
What You'll Do
- Deliver in-field, face-to-face coaching to new and experienced fundraisers
- Role-model best practice in real sales environments (home-to-home & private site fundraising)
- Lead hopover sessions to provide targeted short-term support
- Support fundraisers struggling with performance, offering coaching and constructive feedback
- Deliver engaging webinars and help roll out new campaigns
- Provide reports and insights to your manager on progress and performance
What We're Looking For
- Experience in face-to-face sales or fundraising, ideally with coaching/training experience
- A confident communicator with strong observation and feedback skills
- Someone comfortable working outdoors and travelling frequently
- Flexible, organised, and proactive—you thrive on variety
- Passionate about supporting others to grow
- Tech-confident, with experience using Zoom, Teams, and online training tools
It's a Great Fit If You...
- Believe the best training happens in the field
- Love travel, variety, and being where the action is
- Are resilient, supportive, and hands-on
- Understand the power of habits, structure, and smart hours in driving results
Bonus Points For...
- Experience in the charity/third sector
- Knowledge of door-to-door or private site fundraising
- Designing e-learning or blended training content
- Recognised training/coaching qualifications (e.g. TAP, ILM, CIPD)
