Hiring in Stroud | Office-based

Good on the phone?
Commercially sharp?
Interested in Salesforce, data and enterprise tech?

We’re hiring an Inside Sales Specialist in our Stroud office — consultative B2B selling, real deals, real impact.

If that sounds like your thing, the details are below 👇

We’re Hiring in Stroud: Inside Sales Specialist

Office-based | B2B Tech | Salesforce, Informatica & Data
Cloud Perspective is a fast-growing data consultancy of 28 people, based in Stroud and Manchester. We punch well above our weight, delivering data solutions that fix real problems for large and enterprise organisations.

When businesses struggle with duplicated, inconsistent data spread across multiple systems — customer, product, or materials — we bring it together, clean it up, and make it reliable. The result is better decisions, smoother operations, and stronger customer engagement.

The work we do makes a measurable difference — improving our clients’ bottom line, top line, or both.

We’re expanding our Stroud team and are looking for an enthusiastic Inside Sales Specialist to join us in a primarily office-based role, within a local company operating on a global stage.

The Role
You’ll work closely with our strategic partners, Salesforce and Informatica, supporting their sales organisations by proactively identifying and generating new business opportunities.
You’ll often be set objectives by partner Account Directors within specific industry verticals. This may involve researching a defined set of target customers, identifying key stakeholders and influencers, and understanding their business challenges so that we can jointly position the right solution.
At other times, you’ll be expected to identify and develop new opportunities independently within those verticals, using your own initiative.
Alongside a competitive basic salary, you’ll earn commission on opportunities you originate, as well as on opportunities introduced to you by partner Account Directors. This is a collaborative, mutually beneficial relationship that rewards shared success.
If you’re based in or near Stroud in Gloucestershire, comfortable on the phone, commercially aware, and interested in technology, this could be an excellent next step in your career.
Why Work With Us?
Established in 2011, with offices in Stroud and Manchester, we serve clients around the globe. We’re practical, technically strong, and committed to doing things properly.

Cloud Perspective is:

• Based in Stroud
• A Platinum Informatica Partner
• A Salesforce Consulting Partner
• Working with customers worldwide on complex data challenges
You’ll engage in meaningful discussions with senior professionals about Salesforce, data quality, Master Data Management, integration, and data governance.

What the Role Looks Like Day-to-Day
• Office-based in Stroud (this is not a remote role)
• Working closely with Informatica Account Executives
• The phone is your primary tool, supported by email and LinkedIn
• Discussing real business issues with Salesforce-using organisations
• Contributing to shaping deals typically worth £80k–£100k+
Sales cycles typically run 3–6 months — this is about thoughtful, consultative selling, not just dialling numbers.

You’ll Fit Well If You…
• Have 3+ years’ experience in B2B or technical sales
• Are confident speaking with senior decision-makers
• Value quality conversations over high-volume targets
• Enjoy learning and tackling complex ideas
• Want to progress into higher-value, consultative sales
You don’t need to be a data expert yet — we’ll support your development.

What We Offer
• A supportive, office-based team in Stroud
• Hands-on mentoring from senior leadership
• Exposure to enterprise-level Salesforce and data projects
• Clear progression into solution sales roles
• £120k OTE for the right person

Interested?
Send your CV and covering letter to [email protected] and let’s get the conversation started.
If you’re local to Stroud and ready for something more engaging than a standard sales role — let’s talk.

Office & Operations Manager (with PA Responsibilities)

Location: Aston Down, near Stroud

Salary: Competitive, dependent on experience

Contract: Full-time

Cloud Perspective, located near Stroud in Gloucestershire, is seeking an Office & Operations Manager who will also take on the role of Personal Assistant (PA). This is a unique opportunity for someone with strong PA and office administration experience to become an integral part of a rapidly expanding consultancy. The successful candidate will work closely with the Directors, providing essential support as the company continues its ambitious growth plans.

About the Role

This is not a traditional administrative position. We are looking for a proactive, organised, and confident individual who is eager to take ownership of office, administrative, and internal operations functions. As our business aims to triple in size over the coming year, the right candidate will identify and resolve issues, streamline processes, and help shape how the company operates. Strong communication skills are essential, as the role requires the ability to explain plans clearly and deliver on them.

Employee development is fundamental to our ethos, and we actively encourage and support ongoing training and development within this role.



Key Responsibilities



Personal Assistant Duties

Managing personal documents for the Directors

Handling diary and calendar management

Arranging travel, meetings, and events

Supporting Directors with daily organisation and prioritisation



Office & Administrative Responsibilities

Helping with accounts reconciliation & supporting external accountants with VAT and tax-related information

Managing company administration tasks

Assisting with recruitment, inductions and other HR administration

Overseeing document and records management

Handling timesheet administration

Supporting the wider team with travel and logistics.



Office Management Across Multiple Sites

The Office Manager’s responsibilities will span both sites in Gloucestershire (we have an office in Aston Down and another facility in Nailsworth), with occasional visits to the Manchester office as needed.

Taking ownership of administrative and internal processes and their ongoing operation

Supporting the sales team by helping to define, document, and improve their processes

Collaborating closely with Directors to streamline internal operations

Preparing the business for rapid growth, including planning for future recruitment to enhance this function

Contributing to the management of our partnerships with Informatica and Salesforce.



Additional Information

Bank reconciliation is currently managed by a part-time team member who is on maternity leave and expected to return in April. The Office & Operations Manager will work alongside this function.

This role offers significant autonomy and the chance to shape its scope; initiative and ownership are expected as the business grows.

The scope and responsibilities of the position will expand as the company grows rapidly.



About Cloud Perspective

Cloud Perspective is a boutique consultancy with offices in Aston Down (near Stroud) and Manchester. We specialise in resolving complex customer and business data challenges for large enterprise clients. Our typical clients:

Operate multiple legacy systems

Are transitioning from on-premise infrastructure to cloud platforms

Require a single, trusted view of customers, organisations, and transactions

Are engaged in data integration or migrations following acquisitions or significant transformation programmes

The team currently consists of 25 people, with plans to at least double, and potentially triple, over the next 12 months. This role offers the chance to be at the heart of that expansion.



Working Pattern

Full-time position, primarily based at the Aston Down office

Flexibility around core working hours

Initially office-based, with some home-working possible after a settling-in period.



This Role May Not Suit You If…

You prefer a tightly defined job description with minimal change

You wait for instructions rather than taking initiative

You are uncomfortable working directly with Directors

You do not enjoy improving processes or introducing structure

You are seeking a purely reactive administrative role



HOWEVER,…

If you thrive on creating order amidst growth, enjoy taking responsibility, and are keen to shape how a business operates, this could be the ideal next step in your career.

To apply - please email [email protected] and send us a recent cv and covering letter.

In the fast-paced world of technology, taking a moment to step back, connect, and reflect as a team is great. That's precisely what we did during our recent core day at our Manchester offices; a day filled with insights, collaboration, and, most importantly, fun.
