Business Development Assistant

We’re seeking a motivated, ambitious person who can use their drive and determination to research, collate, analyse data, to aid our sales process in corporate social responsibility (CSR) and learning and development (L&D) markets. This role will be a proactive powerhouse in supporting our lead generation, sales prospecting, outreach and growth. Our marketing and sales strategies rely on market trends and data, so that we can add value as a national leading supplier in servicing volunteer-involving-organisations (VIOs) with employee and student volunteers.

Those who complete the Business Development Assistant Internship at CT may continue onto a Community Consultant volunteering program, if so inclined, for more hands-on consulting experience with key VIO stakeholders.
