£27,000 - £35,000 – UK - Remote, UK
This role is for experienced B2B sales professionals who already know how to pick up the phone, build a pipeline, and hit targets, all whilst having the discipline to do it from home independently without requiring the buzz of a sales floor.
Northern Gas and Power’s Remote Lead Gen programme is built for people with a proven sales track record who are looking to move into, or level up, their knowledge of the Energy sector and excel their career to a different level.
This is not an entry-level role. We need people who can manage their own day, stay disciplined without a manager looking over their shoulder, and consistently deliver results in a home environment.
Working from home in a target-driven sales role is not for everyone. The people who succeed share these characteristics:
In short, your job is to be self-disciplined and tenacious; cold call businesses to create opportunities, build the relationships, and deliver pipeline results by converting opportunities into cash sales by working with a sales closer.
Weeks 1-2: Virtual classroom training — energy market fundamentals, objection handling, CRM, call structure. You’ll attend live sessions via Teams and shadow experienced agents through screen share. You may be required to attend our Gateshead office during this initial training period.
Weeks 3-8: You’re on the phones from home with direct support. Your Closer, your coach and your manager review your calls remotely via recorded sessions. Daily check-ins via Teams. Targets are introduced but ramped gradually, as the focus is on quality, not volume.
Weeks 9-12: You’re now building your pipeline, your first deals are progressing through to close, and you’ll see commission hitting your payslip. Check-ins move to weekly as you prove your rhythm.

Some of our most successful people in this role have worked in Recruitment Consulting, Telesales, Retentions, Energy or Utilities, Door to Door, Field Sales and commission only roles. This role is easy to transition to if you already work towards targets, you know how to prospect, you’ve handled rejection, you already close your own deals and are used to earning commission.
“People ask me how I’ve done so well and the honest answer is I keep picking up the phone and working away. Every person I speak to is trying to run a successful business, often stressed about energy costs they don’t fully understand. If I can help them even a little bit, the call was worth making! I’ve now got customers who specifically ask for me when they come up for renewal. If you’re good with people and you’re prepared to work hard, the rest will come. I’m proof of that.”
