Are you an experienced sales person looking for their next career move? Do you yearn for a position you can call your own and one that provides a good degree of autonomy?
Perhaps you already some technical sales experience and enjoy generating your own leads in a technical environment?
My client is seeking to inject some fresh impetus into their small sales team and needs you!
Role Purpose
Working as part of a small but spritely sales team, and directly for the Internal Sales Manager, your role will encompass every conceivable facet of a sales role and will best suit a creative salesperson who is hungry to grow a career and isn’t afraid to go the extra mile in order to achieve it. This role is not lending itself to a ‘sell your Granny’ salesperson – used car salesmen need not apply! A studious, tenacious, self-starting relationship builder will fit the bill perfectly here.
The role has bags of scope – the company is a market-leader in the midst of a ‘changing of the guard’ and has fresh people with big ideas. The role will be working closely with the International Sales Manager initially, but the company seeks someone with the initiative and autonomy to work under their own steam and develop their own workload once they are established in the role.

* Work closely with product and marketing departments to ensure all sales opportunities are maximised with product partners and through marketing initiatives.
* Follow up new business opportunities and set up meetings.
* Participate in pricing the solution/service, and negotiate and close business.
* Plan and prepare presentations, and present to and consult with mid and senior level management on business trends with a view to developing new services, products, and distribution channels.
* Attend industry functions, such as association events and conferences, and provide feedback and information on market and creative trends.
* Identify opportunities for campaigns, services, and distribution channels that will lead to an increase in sales.
* Using knowledge of the market and competitors, identify and develop the company’s unique selling propositions and differentiators.
* Submit weekly progress reports and ensure data is accurate.
* Ensure that data is accurately entered and managed within the company’s CRM or other sales management system.
* Track and record activity on accounts and help to close deals to meet these targets.
* Work with marketing staff to ensure that prerequisites (like pre-qualification or getting on a vendor list) are fulfilled within a timely manner.
* International travel when required.

* Great attention to detail with excellent problem solving abilities.
* Highly organised, with an ability to prioritise a heavy workload in a high pressure environment.
* The entrepreneurial flair and passion to make a job ‘your own’.
* The intuition and self discipline to develop the role independently and work alone when required.
* A good working knowledge of MS Word, Excel, Powerpoint and Outlook.
