Driver Hire Stoke is looking for a confident, driven and personable Business Development / Sales Executive to join our team.

This is a heavily sales-focused position for someone who enjoys getting out and meeting businesses, picking up the phone, building relationships and ultimately winning new customers.

The Role

Your main responsibility will be to identify, approach and develop new business across Stoke-on-Trent and the surrounding area.

Your typical week will include:

• Proactively identifying and targeting potential new customers
• Making outbound sales calls and booking appointments
• Attending face-to-face meetings with local businesses
• Visiting prospective customers and introducing Driver Hire's services
• Following up meetings, calls and previous enquiries
• Producing and emailing quotations and proposals
• Building relationships with key decision-makers
• Maintaining accurate records of prospects and opportunities
• Managing and developing your own sales pipeline
• Following up quotations and progressing opportunities through to conversion
• Working closely with the existing recruitment team to ensure new customers receive an excellent service

This isn't a role where you'll spend every day sitting behind a desk. We want someone who is comfortable getting out into the local area, meeting businesses and creating opportunities.

Working Pattern

The position is 3 days a week, with your week split between office-based work, telephone sales and visiting customers.

You’ll also have the opportunity to work from home one day per week, providing a dedicated admin day to update your pipeline, send quotations, follow up meetings and plan your activity for the week ahead.

What We're Looking For

We're looking for someone who is:

• Confident speaking to businesses both over the phone and face-to-face
• Comfortable approaching new customers and generating their own leads
• Motivated by targets and winning new business
• Organised and able to manage a busy sales pipeline
• Persistent without being overly pushy
• Professional and comfortable dealing with decision-makers
• Able to build strong, long-term business relationships
• Self-motivated and capable of planning their own sales activity

Previous experience in B2B sales, recruitment, transport, logistics, account management or business development would be advantageous, although we’re more interested in finding someone with the right attitude, confidence and drive.

A full UK driving licence is required due to the amount of face-to-face customer activity involved.

What We Offer

• Competitive basic salary
• Attractive commission structure rewarding new business success
• Monday to Friday working
• No weekend working
• One work-from-home/admin day per week
• Support from an experienced existing office team
• Direct support and guidance from the franchisee
• Established Driver Hire brand and reputation
• Genuine autonomy to develop your own territory and customer base
• Opportunity to build a successful long-term career within the business
