Location: Ashford, Kent
Salary: £35,000 basic + uncapped commission
OTE: £74,000

Ready to Take Your Sales Career to the Next Level?

Are you a natural hunter / closer?

Someone who thrives on the chase, loves winning business and gets a genuine buzz from turning a great conversation into a signed order?

Do you have big career ambitions, great energy and the determination to make serious money through your own performance?

If so, this could be the opportunity you've been waiting for.

Diamond Search Recruitment are working exclusively on behalf of our client, a rapidly growing product manufacturing business.

Due to continued growth, they are looking for a driven Business Development Executive who wants to build a successful sales career, take ownership of a valuable pipeline and become a key commercial player within the business.

And here's the exciting part

You're not starting from zero.

Forget spending your days trawling LinkedIn, buying databases and making hundreds of completely cold calls.

You'll be handed a pipeline of highly qualified opportunities from customers who are already exploring product development and are interested in taking their ideas into manufacturing.

We're looking for someone who can pick up the phone, build instant rapport, uncover the opportunity, overcome objections and close the deal.

THE ROLE

This is a genuinely exciting hunter-style sales position.

You'll manage approximately new qualified opportunities every month, speaking directly with entrepreneurs, start-ups and established brands looking to bring new products to market.

Your job is simple:

Build relationships. Create momentum. Solve problems. Close business.

You'll have regular telephone and video conversations with customers, understanding what they're trying to achieve, their budget and requirements, and then working with them to develop a commercially viable solution.

You'll learn the technical side of the industry as you go.

Full training will be provided across the company's products, pricing structures, systems and manufacturing processes.

What you DO need is:

Energy. Confidence. Commercial instinct. Ambition. Resilience. And the ability to ask for the order.

WHAT YOU'LL BE DOING

• Take ownership of a high-quality pipeline of qualified sales opportunities.
• Conduct frequent telephone and video consultations with prospective customers.
• Build strong relationships quickly and establish credibility with decision-makers.
• Identify customer needs, budgets and commercial objectives.
• Qualify opportunities and keep customers moving through the sales journey.
• Identify potential obstacles and find commercially viable solutions.
• Present pricing and proposals confidently.
• Negotiate and overcome objections.
• Follow up relentlessly and professionally.
• Maintain accurate CRM records and pipeline activity.
• Work closely with internal teams to ensure customer requirements can be delivered.
• Convert qualified opportunities into manufacturing orders.
• Consistently work towards and exceed sales targets.

WHO ARE WE LOOKING FOR?

We're not looking for someone who simply wants another sales job.

We're looking for someone who wants to build a career in sales.

You might already be working in:

• Business Development
• B2 B Sales
• Account Management
• Telesales
• Technology Sales
• Another target-driven commercial environment

Or perhaps you're a naturally competitive, commercially minded salesperson who knows you're capable of much more.

Industry experience isn't essential.

What matters is that you are:

• Ambitious you want to progress and earn well.
• Energetic you bring enthusiasm to every conversation.
• Confident you're comfortable speaking to customers and decision-makers.
• Hungry you want to win, not simply participate.
• Resilient you don't crumble when you hear "no".
• Commercial you understand that conversations need to lead somewhere.
• Curious you enjoy learning and asking great questions.
• Competitive you want to be one of the best performers.
• Career-focused you're serious about where your sales career can take you.

Most importantly, you're comfortable asking for the business.

WHAT'S IN IT FOR YOU?

£35,000 Basic + £74,000 OTE

Your earning potential is directly linked to your performance, giving you the opportunity to significantly increase your earnings as you develop.

You won't be expected to build your entire pipeline from scratch.

You'll be working with qualified opportunities every month, giving you a strong platform from which to generate sales.

This is a proactive sales role, but you won't spend your day making endless calls to completely cold prospects.

The conversations you're having are with customers who have already shown an interest in developing and manufacturing products.

This is an opportunity to join a growing organisation where ambition is encouraged.

If you're successful, there is genuine scope to develop your responsibilities and progress your career.

You do not need technical knowledge of the products or manufacturing process.

You'll receive comprehensive training and learn everything you need to become a confident and credible commercial advisor.

You'll be working with entrepreneurs and established brands bringing new products to market.

Every customer and project is different, meaning this is far from a repetitive sales environment.

• Qualified Leads
• No Traditional Cold Calling
• Career Development
• Full Product Training
• An Exciting Industry

THE IDEAL PERSON

We're looking for someone who walks into the office with energy and ambition.

Someone who enjoys being busy.

Someone who likes targets.

Someone who wants to hear "yes".

Someone who can take a difficult customer conversation and turn it into an opportunity.

Someone who isn't afraid to pick up the phone, challenge a customer, negotiate and ultimately close the deal.

If you're currently in sales and thinking:

"I'm capable of earning more. I'm capable of doing more. I want a proper career."

We want to hear from you!

Interested?

If you're ambitious, energetic, commercially driven and serious about building a successful sales career,

Diamond Search Recruitment is proud to be representing our client on this exciting appointment.
