Inside Keyzo: An Interview with Luke

Luke Rees is one of our Business Development Managers and started with the company last September. In this short space of time he’s come a long way to enhance his skills, knowledge and experience within our Commercial Team.

We had a chat with Luke to gain some insights into his current role, and his journey so far.

What does your role involve as a Business Development Manager at Keyzo?

“My role involves handling inbound inquiries and reaching out to other businesses to raise awareness of our products and services. I provide companies that request more information with everything they need to make an informed decision, helping them automate manual processes to save time and enhance compliance in areas such as health and safety and industry regulations.”

Did you have any relevant experience prior to joining the company?

“I’ve worked in B2B sales for over a decade and have lots of experience successfully managing the full sales cycle.”

How has Keyzo helped you develop your skills and knowledge since you started?

“Keyzo has played a huge role in my development, especially as I’ve delved into the world of health & safety, regulatory compliance, auditing, and more—which some might find boring! For me, however, it has sparked a real interest and expanded my knowledge. I’m excited to begin my IOSH learning, with Keyzo’s support.”

What do you like most about your Business Development Manager Role?

“Talking to people! I love knowing that what I offer our clients helps make their working lives easier, which in turn positively impacts their personal lives. Many business processes are heavily manual, making them prone to errors and challenging when proving compliance during audits—not to mention the safety risks involved. The products Keyzo has developed streamline all of that, and I enjoy helping companies digitise their processes.”

What’s been your personal highlight so far since Joining Keyzo?

“Getting my first sale!”

How do you find working remotely and how does Keyzo support you as a remote worker?

“I’m a very social person and used to really enjoy working in an office, but I’ve found that working remotely allows me to focus more on my role while still feeling connected. Keyzo supports me 100%, and being able to do the school run every day makes me incredibly happy, I know that’s a privilege not everyone has. Family is the most important thing to me, and it plays a big role in my life.”

What advice would you give someone thinking of becoming a Business Development Manager?

“If you enjoy helping people and don’t mind being ignored by most of the ones you reach out to, then a career in sales is for you! Like anything in life, you get out what you put in, so be prepared to make every minute count!”
