This is an excellent opportunity for someone with a strong sales background who enjoys building relationships, managing existing accounts and generating repeat business.

You don't need previous engineering industry experience, but you must be confident using IT systems, managing customer databases and keeping accurate records of sales activity.

The Role

Your responsibilities will include:

• Managing and developing an existing database of B2B clients.
• Building strong relationships with industrial clients, manufacturers and large retailers.
• Generating repeat business and identifying opportunities to grow existing accounts.

• A proactive approach to account management, customer follow-ups and generating repeat business.
• Excellent communication and relationship-building skills.
• The ability to understand customer requirements and identify opportunities to increase sales.
• A willingness to learn a new industry and develop your technical product knowledge.
• Experience within engineering or manufacturing is not essential. We are interested in candidates with transferable B2B sales skills who are keen to learn and build a long-term career within the engineering services sector.

What's on Offer?

Salary of £32,000 - £35,000 per annum, depending on experience.
