Country Manager - United Kingdom (Remote)

Build Pear Tree's UK Business From Day One

Pear Tree is expanding into the United Kingdom and we're looking for an entrepreneurial, commercially driven Country Manager to lead the launch.

This is a rare opportunity to build and own an entirely new market — working directly with the founders to establish Pear Tree's presence in the UK from the ground up.

We're not looking for someone to manage an existing business. We're looking for someone to build one.

Competitive base salary, uncapped commission structure, and partnership opportunities available for the right person.

About Pear Tree

Pear Tree helps businesses build high-performing offshore teams through a transparent, ethical direct hiring model.

We partner with growing businesses across Australia and New Zealand to access exceptional global talent, reduce hiring costs, and scale faster. Following strong growth in these markets, we're now launching in the UK.

The Role

As Pear Tree's first UK hire, you'll be responsible for driving growth, winning new clients, developing strategic partnerships, and building the foundations of our UK operation.

Initially, much of your activity will focus on converting inbound opportunities generated through our marketing, referral, and partnership channels. But this isn't a role for someone who waits for leads to come in. You'll also be expected to help develop and execute an outbound growth strategy that can scale alongside the business.

This is a hands-on commercial role. You'll be expected to win business yourself before eventually recruiting and leading a high-performing UK team.

What You'll Be Doing

• Launch and grow Pear Tree's UK market from day one
• Convert inbound opportunities into long-term client partnerships
• Build relationships with founders, executives, and business owners across the UK
• Identify and develop strategic partnerships and referral channels
• Design scalable sales processes and a repeatable go-to-market strategy
• Recruit, train, and lead future UK team members as the business grows
• Represent Pear Tree within the UK business community

Note: this is not a recruiting or delivery role — your focus is commercial growth.

Requirements

What We're Looking For

• Proven track record in B2B sales or business development
• Demonstrated ability to generate revenue and close deals independently
• Experience managing both inbound pipelines and self-generated outbound activity
• Background in building or scaling a sales function, team, or new market
• Entrepreneurial mindset — comfortable with ambiguity and motivated by ownership
• Strong communication, negotiation, and relationship-building skills
• Able to operate with high autonomy in a fast-growth environment
• Based in the UK

Benefits

Why Join Pear Tree?

• Be the person who launches our UK business — not inheriting someone else's work
• Fully remote with complete flexibility over how you work
• Direct access to founders and senior leadership
• Significant autonomy and real decision-making authority from day one
• Competitive base salary with an uncapped commission structure
• Part...
