Head of B2C Sales

# Head of B2C Sales### Sales## Head of B2C Sales Sheffield City Centre (fully office-based)
** Salary: £50,000 DOE plus commission (OTE ~£75,000)
** Uni Homes is looking for a Head of B2C Sales to lead and grow our consumer sales and retentions function and play a key role in supporting students at one of the most important moments in their renting journey.
This role combines strategic ownership with hands‐on leadership. You’ll have full responsibility for the B2C sales and retentions function, including setting direction, improving performance, and directly line managing the team.
Our B2C sales team is not a traditional call centre. It is a small, close‐knit group, united by a shared purpose to make renting simpler, clearer and less stressful. Sales conversations are consultative and supportive, focused on helping renters make confident decisions rather than high‐pressure selling.
Reporting into the Head of Sales, you will take ownership of B2C sales performance end‐to‐end. You’ll lead the permanent team day‐to‐day, and during peak summer periods you’ll scale the function significantly, often doubling the team with temporary telesales colleagues. Many of these are students themselves or existing Uni Homes customers, and a core part of this role is ensuring they are effectively onboarded, trained and supported to perform well quickly.
You’ll work closely with Marketing, Customer Experience, and Product, helping shape the wider student journey and ensuring B2C sales operates as an integrated, high‐impact function within the business.
This is a visible, influential role with genuine scope to make improvements, build capability over time, and grow a function that matters.
This role is based on standard office hours of Monday to Thursday, 9:00am–5:30pm, and Friday, 9:00am–5:00pm. Due to the seasonal nature of the business, occasional weekend working is required, typically once a month and dependent on demand, particularly during peak periods.
