Job Description:

If you enjoy pursuing new business opportunities and want to work for a flexible company with an appealing range of services that save customers thousands of pounds, then we have an interesting role to discuss.

The organisation is an international business in the security sector, offering a wide range of services, both manned and unmanned, to protect remote construction sites, empty properties, and other situations.

This is a hybrid role based in NE Birmingham. After initial training, you will be encouraged to engage with potential clients and customers, sourcing opportunities and booking meetings. You can spend 2-3 days in the office if not out and about.

The position is self-sufficient, and you will build your client base over time. The role involves both new business development and account management. The sales process can last up to 6 months, so patience and excellent client management skills are essential.

Candidates with experience selling services into government sectors such as local authorities, public sector, housing associations, NHS, and police are preferred. Candidates from security, debt/property enforcement, fire solutions, or experienced services sales professionals with steady careers in related roles are also of interest.

If you are a motivated salesperson comfortable pitching and winning new clients/contracts, please send your CV. If you have the relevant product and industry experience, we will contact you promptly for a chat.
