Common sales recruitment problems in Brighton

Rising expectations for consultative selling

Sales in Brighton has evolved beyond cold calling. Employers want candidates who can sell consultatively, understand client challenges, and tailor solutions, especially across SaaS, creative services and digital platforms.

Fewer experienced candidates on the market

Brighton’s business community is full of promising junior talent, but experienced mid-to-senior sales professionals are harder to find. Many leave for London roles unless companies offer clear progression, flexibility and purpose.

A shift towards hybrid and remote sales teams

Post-pandemic, Brighton-based employers are building hybrid commercial teams. This means they must compete nationally for talent while also attracting local candidates who want a strong team culture and in-person collaboration.
