Are you fluent in German and looking for a career that offers genuine progression, international travel and the opportunity to earn well from day one?

Perhaps you've recently graduated, worked in hospitality, retail, customer service or another customer-facing environment and are looking for your first opportunity in professional sales.

If so, this could be exactly what you're looking for.

We're recruiting for a German Speaking Business Development Executive to join an established international business based in Manchester City Centre.

• Positive attitude and willingness to learn.
• Ambitious, driven and self-motivated.

Whether you've worked in hospitality, retail, customer service, travel, events or have recently graduated, full training and support will be provided.

What's On Offer

• £37,500 basic salary.
• Realistic first-year earnings of £45,000.
