Founded in 2005, we are a dynamic data solutions company dedicated to helping organisations solve complex business challenges. Our client’s satisfaction is of primary importance to us and we are proud to own a World Class +82 Net Promoter Score. Combining our data solutions with our delivery capabilities and tailored approach, we work with clients across a range of industry sectors including Water, Energy, Telecomms, Financial Services, Retail, Charity, Healthcare, Travel and Leisure to achieve a common goal.

Sagacity addresses core problems that exist for clients within the life-cycle of their customers; identifying profitable prospective customers, reducing Bad Debt, improving Revenue & Margin and optimising value through our core solutions; Customer Data Management, Credit Risk, Revenue Assurance, Value Based Management, Data Management Solutions and Consulting. We help our clients to extract maximum value by joining the dots between data, people, policies, processes and systems.

We believe that the reason for our World Class Net Promoter Score is because of the talent we employ and nurture, our team environment as well as our ethos - for us it is a mindset thing…

We are a purpose led company and we believe that purpose comes before profit. We believe that if we achieve our purpose then everything else will follow. From a client perspective that means we engage to deliver successful client outcomes rather than limiting ourselves to delivering contracted outputs. Delivering outputs delivers the contract. Joining the dots delivers the outcome.

We are growing quickly. Not only growing the number of clients we work with, but also what we do for them. Effectively, we are a data solutions company and use data to solve business challenges. We provide data, analysis, solutions, advice, and consultancy as an extension of their team. Whether it is for new customer acquisition, customer on-boarding and management, revenue management, value driving or customer retention there’s always an opportunity to improve what they do.

We already work with some of the UK’s biggest and best-known brands in this space Including Sky, Talk Talk, VM02, Samsung and many more. We have some amazing case studies and examples of how we have helped these businesses both save and make significant amounts of money. But we are keen to add more and are looking for a senior business development person to add to our already very successful team.

The person we are looking for will help find new prospects, develop and build relationships with key individuals and then provide solutions to their problems. At Sagacity we believe there is no problem that can’t be solved by data analysis and great people - and you could be the person to help us find and solve some of those problems. We are looking for someone who is creative and tenacious but also fun and engaging and who is keen to meet new people and build excellent relationships.

The ability to thrive within a target driven sales environment !

Success in any business is ultimately about its people; their skills, personality, attitude, qualities, dedication and enthusiasm. We recognise the value of our people and their commitment to working together as a team, but equally between ourselves and our clients. Our consultants are often personally recommended and undergo rigorous screening to ensure they share the qualities that are integral to our business. They naturally have an outstanding level of skill in their areas of expertise, many with significant operational experience within our key industry sectors.

At Sagacity, we:

• believe working with our clients, in collaboration, delivers better results
• coach & mentor our client's teams so our solutions live on after our assignment ends
• believe in delivering benefits as we go along

If you would like to join a unique working environment, with a sociable culture, where work is done a little bit differently - and we believe 'better’ - then we look forward to hearing from you!
