We have a permanent job opportunity available to work for a company that collaborates with the Army and Navy. You will be working within a great team based in Chelmsford, Essex, comprised of many graduates and ex-military personnel, creating a fantastic work environment. Due to success and growth, we have an opportunity for a Military Events Sales Executive to join them. This position offers a guaranteed basic salary of £24,000, plus uncapped commission (it is realistic to earn around £20,000 in commission per annum), along with benefits.
* 20 days holiday, plus bank holidays, plus an additional two-week annual leave break at Christmas.
* Pension.
* Regular team socials and events.
* Full support and training.
* Excellent progression, with a legacy of promoting from within.
* Monday to Friday 8:30 am to 5:00 pm working hours.
As the Military Events Sales Executive, you will be working for a successful company that organizes global events alongside the Army and Navy. Your role will be varied and will include researching companies and contacts, fact-finding, networking, and engaging in discussions with companies daily. You will sell the benefits of attending their events, where they can network and promote their products, services, or technologies to the Army or Navy at their highly successful events. Once researched, you will cold call companies to initiate discussions and use a tried and tested sales plan to develop relationships, secure their business, and retain them. You will also build relationships and network face-to-face when attending global events. This opportunity will allow you to travel internationally, as you will attend around four fully paid-for global events a year, each lasting around 2-4 days. You will receive full training and support in this amazing role.
To be considered for the Military Events Sales Executive position, you will need:
* A valid passport to travel.
* To live within a reasonable distance of Chelmsford.
* An extremely clear and professional telephone manner.
* The confidence to speak to business professionals and senior-ranking personnel within the Armed Forces.
* To be driven, motivated, enthusiastic, and confident in working to sales targets.
* A passion for and engagement with working alongside the Armed Forces.
* Recent office-based telephone sales experience or to be a graduate with no sales experience but with a passion for military event sales. Ex-military candidates without sales experience will also be considered. The company is pro-graduate and ex-military, as they consistently excel within the role. However, this opportunity is open to experienced sales professionals who do not have a degree or military background.
If you have any exposure to the Armed Forces, such as the Army, Navy, Royal Air Force, or Cadets (either personally, through friends, or family), it would be highly beneficial, but this is not essential. This is an amazing, rare, and unique job opportunity!
We look forward to hearing from you.
