Job description

If you're ambitious, competitive and motivated by success, this could be the opportunity you've been waiting for.

At Sharp UK, we're looking for driven sales professionals who want to build a long-term career in technology sales.

Whether you're currently working in a contact centre, telesales, customer service sales, retention, energy sales, insurance or another fast-paced sales environment, we'll give you the platform, training and support to develop into a successful Account Manager.

This isn't a role where you'll spend every day reading from a script.

Instead, you'll learn how to build customer relationships, uncover opportunities, provide consultative advice and manage your own portfolio of business customers using Sharp's market-leading technology solutions.

What You'll Be Doing

As an Inside Sales Account Manager, you'll be responsible for developing relationships with both existing and prospective customers across our technology portfolio. You'll work as part of a collaborative sales team focused on delivering exceptional customer experiences and commercial growth.

Your responsibilities will include:

• Managing a portfolio of customer accounts and building long-term relationships.
• Identifying opportunities to cross-sell and introduce additional products and services.
• Producing quotations and proposals with speed and accuracy.
• Delivering outstanding customer service and ensuring customer retention.
• Working towards sales targets and activity-based KPIs.
• Using CRM systems and digital sales tools to manage opportunities and forecast performance.
• Participating in ongoing sales and product training to continuously develop your skills.

Who We're Looking For

We're far more interested in attitude than industry experience.

If you're someone who enjoys competing, achieving goals and pushing yourself to be better every day, we'd love to hear from you.

You may currently be working as a:

• Customer Retention Specialist
• Business Development Executive
• Customer Account Manager
• Insurance, Energy or Telecoms Sales Consultant

The ideal candidate will be:

• Highly motivated and target-driven with a genuine desire to succeed.
• Resilient and comfortable handling objections and challenges.
• Confident speaking with customers and building rapport.
• Competitive, ambitious and eager to develop a career in sales.
• Organised and capable of managing multiple customer conversations at pace.
• Professional, articulate and customer-focused.

Why Sharp?

We genuinely invest in our people.

You'll receive ongoing coaching, structured sales development and exposure to a broad portfolio of technology solutions. This is an opportunity to learn from experienced sales professionals and build a career within one of the UK's most established technology businesses.

Many organisations talk about progression. We actively create it.

If you're looking to move beyond transactional sales and develop into a skilled Account Manager with real earning potential and long-term career opportunities, we'd like to hear from you.
