Job Description:
Reporting to the Regional Sales Manager, your key responsibility is the growth of a specific sales region. The area already hosts an existing client portfolio, but ultimately the success of the role hinges on 80% New Business Development and 20% Account Management of our existing customer base.
You will play a key role in all stages of the sales process, including initial prospecting, appointment making, customer presentations, and demonstrations through to ultimately closing the deal. The efficient planning and management of the territory is as crucial as your work ethic, drive, and enthusiasm.
Offering a consultative approach, working across all levels from shop floor to board level, you will develop a thorough understanding of each prospect or customer and their operations, looking for opportunities to secure new business, develop further business, or provide additional value. We are looking for an individual who can demonstrate a successful sales track record within the electric warehousing equipment sector or a similar or aligned industry such as pallet racking systems.
We place emphasis on career stability and therefore look for an employment history that demonstrates this. You will be a self-starter and have a strong work ethic, high energy, drive, and determination.
