Job description

At first glance, AO Business and ao.com might look similar, but they're quite different.While ao.com transformed the way people shop for appliances, AO Business is shaking up the B2B world by offering a wider product range and tailored solutions to a more diverse client base. Our aim is simple: challenge the norm, do things better, and become the most trusted name in business supply.

We're looking for a Sales Executive to join our fast-paced, high-energy B2B Inbound Sales team where you won't just take orders - you'll build relationships, solve problems, and help our customers grow.

With plenty of recognition for top performers, support to help you succeed, and a basic salary of £28,408 (OTE of £40k) on the table, this is a role where you can make your mark in a team that's transforming the B2B market!

Our people are our superpower, and we’re unstoppable when we’re together! We want your ideas to flow, and what better way to make that happen than being under the same roof, where our culture fuels creativity, collaboration and growth. If a £1 bet in the pub between two friends can become the UKs most trusted electrical retailer, imagine what else can be achieved when we we’re together!

Here's What You Can Expect To Be Doing

• Handle inbound calls and process orders with care and accuracy
• Build rapport and ask the right questions to understand customer needs
• Develop and maintain a healthy business pipeline
• Proactively acquire new customers and grow your client base
• Send and follow up on quotes via phone and email
• Conduct market tests and feed insights back to the team
