About the opportunity

Working with us is a wise investment in your future career. The successful candidate will become part of a Business Development Team, in a role that offers a lot of responsibility and fast career progression. You will need lots of energy and have a strong desire to succeed, as your day will be jam-packed with developing self-generated prospects. You will be dealing with senior level staff.

Sales executives help to drive a business forward by selling its products or services to customers

Your role as a sales executive is to sell a company's products and services to individuals, businesses, and government organisations. Sales may be domestic, international, or a combination of both. As well as approaching potential customers with the aim of winning new business, you'll strive to maintain good relationships with existing clients, gaining repeat business wherever possible.

Responsibilities

As a sales executive, your duties will differ if you're working in B2B or B2C sales.

In B2B sales, you'll need to:

• build good working relationships
• understand the needs of your business customers
• research the market and related products
• present the product or service favourably and in a structured professional way face-to-face.

In B2C sales, you'll need to:

• listen to customer requirements and present appropriately to make a sale
• maintain and develop relationships with existing customers in person and via telephone calls and emails
• cold call to arrange meetings with potential customers to prospect for new business
• respond to incoming email and phone enquiries
• act as a contact between a company and its existing and potential markets
• negotiate the terms of an agreement and close sales
• gather market and customer information
• challenge any objections with a view to getting the customer to buy
• advise on forthcoming product developments and discuss special promotions
• create detailed proposal documents, often as part of a formal bidding process, which is largely dictated by the prospective customer

For both roles, you'll be required to:

• negotiate on price, costs, delivery and specifications with buyers and managers
• liaise with suppliers to check the progress of existing orders
• record sales and order information, sending copies to the sales office, or entering figures into a computer system
• represent the company at trade exhibitions, events and demonstrations
• feed future buying trends back to employers
• review your own sales performance, aiming to meet or exceed targets
• attend team meetings and share best practice with colleagues.

What to expect

• The sales industry is target driven and consequently, the work can sometimes be demanding and pressurised.
• Conditions of work vary widely according to the field in which you operate. You could be based in the UK or overseas and may work from an office base.
• Sales executives are generally expected to look professional and smart, particularly when liaising with clients.

Qualifications

Although this area of work is open to all school leavers & graduates, the following subjects may improve your chances:

• business, management or marketing
• computing, engineering or technology (for technical sales)
• media studies (for advertising and media sales)

Academic qualifications are often less important than personality, attitude and abilities and a strong commercial awareness and excellent communication skills are particularly desirable attributes.

Work experience

It will be helpful to you if you already gained experience in a customer-facing environment, such as retail or hospitality.

How to apply

If you are confident, passionate about learning, want to flourish your skills and become a valuable proud team member at LSB Group, please do get in touch by emailing your CV and Cover Letter for the role.

We wish you a very successful career in the near future!

Skills

Skills you'll need to have:

• the ability and desire to sell
• excellent communication skills
• a positive, confident and determined approach
• resilience and the ability to cope with rejection
• a high degree of self-motivation and ambition
• the skills to work both independently and as part of a team
• the capability to flourish in a competitive environment
• a good level of numeracy
• fluency in a foreign language - this can be helpful, particularly if working for an international company.
