Job description

SALES EXECUTIVE / BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT – TRANSACTIONAL PRINT

Essex | Competitive Salary + Benefits

Print that matters.

Sales that makes an impact.

We’re looking for a driven, commercially minded sales professional to join an established Transactional Print business based in Essex.

This isn’t about selling a commodity.

Transactional print sits at the heart of how businesses communicate with their customers — from statements and invoices to critical customer communications, personalised documents and fulfilment.

And we’re looking for someone who can turn that into commercial opportunity.

The role

You’ll be responsible for winning new business and developing existing relationships, working with organisations that rely on secure, accurate and highly efficient print and mailing solutions.

You’ll be:

• Identifying and winning new business opportunities
• Building strong, long-term relationships with key clients
• Selling transactional print, mailing and associated fulfilment solutions
• Developing existing accounts and increasing revenue
• Understanding customer requirements and proposing the right solutions
• Managing the sales process from prospecting through to close
• Working closely with operational and production teams to deliver for clients
• Keeping up with evolving technology and finding new opportunities in the market

Who are we looking for?

You’ll ideally have experience selling transactional print, mailing, document management, managed print, data-driven communications or a related service.

But more than anything, we're looking for someone who:

• Is hungry for new business
• Is commercially switched on
• Builds relationships naturally
• Can talk confidently to decision-makers
• Understands the importance of data, accuracy and security
• Is tenacious, organised and comfortable managing a sales pipeline
• Wants to win — not just manage

Why this opportunity?

Transactional communications are becoming increasingly sophisticated — and businesses need reliable partners who can combine print, data, personalisation, mailing and fulfilment.

You’ll be joining a business where you can make a genuine impact, with the opportunity to build your own pipeline, grow existing customers and play a key role in the company's continued growth.
