We’re launching a new Sales and Business Development cohort designed for early career talent with the personality, mindset, and hunger to succeed in a commercial environment.

This programme isn’t about having the “perfect CV.”

It’s about drive, confidence, coachability, and the desire to build something meaningful.

·       Contribute to business growth while living DXC’s values of integrity, collaboration, and customer focus

What We’re Looking For

We’re searching for people who bring:

·       Ambition, energy, and a strong desire to succeed

·       A natural interest in sales, communication, or influencing

·       Confidence paired with humility and a willingness to learn

·       Resilience — you see challenges as opportunities to grow

·       Strong people skills and a collaborative mindset

·       A commitment to doing the right thing for customers and society

What You’ll Gain

·       Industry leading sales training, delivered with Clarify

·       Ongoing mentoring, coaching, and professional development

·       The chance to build a rewarding, high impact sales career

And one of the biggest advantages of sales?

Your success is visible.

As your confidence, skills, and results grow, so do your opportunities — through performance based incentives, faster career progression, and tangible rewards for the impact you make.

To apply, you’ll need to:

·       Be able to travel to your assigned DXC office location (up to five days per week)

Recruitment fraud is a scheme in which fictitious job opportunities are offered to job seekers typically through online services, such as false websites, or through unsolicited emails claiming to be from the company. These emails may request recipients to provide personal information or to make payments as part of their illegitimate recruiting process. DXC does not make offers of employment via social media networks and DXC never asks for any money or payments from applicants at any point in the recruitment process, nor ask a job seeker to purchase IT or other equipment on our behalf. More information on employment scams is available here.
