Regional Growth Manager - Refrigerated Vehicle RentalNorth | Midlands | South

Cool Motion UK | Three full-time, permanent opportunities

Home and field-based, with travel across your region

Own your region. Build your future.

Cool Motion UK is recruiting three exceptional Regional Growth Managers to help drive the next chapter of our refrigerated vehicle rental business.

We’re looking for ambitious sales professionals who want ownership: the opportunity to shape a territory, win customers, build lasting relationships and see their ideas make a difference.

You’ll bring proven success in vehicle rental, leasing or contract hire.

We’ll give you the opportunity to put that experience to work, influence our growth and share in the rewards of your success.

The opportunity

You will take responsibility for developing profitable business across your region, identifying customers who need dependable refrigerated vehicle rental solutions and building relationships that last.

This is a hands-on sales role covering the full journey—from identifying an opportunity and opening the conversation to negotiating an agreement and coordinating a successful customer handover.

You will work closely with senior management, fleet and operations to turn your commercial plans into business we can deliver reliably.

What you’ll do

• Develop and deliver a clear sales plan for your territory.
• Identify, approach and win new customers across sectors including food production, distribution, retail, catering and pharmaceuticals.
• Understand customers’ operating requirements and propose suitable rental solutions.
• Build relationships with business owners, fleet managers, procurement teams and operational decision-makers.
• Prepare proposals, negotiate agreements and secure profitable business within agreed pricing and credit parameters.
• Develop existing accounts, identify additional requirements and support renewals.
• Maintain an accurate pipeline, customer records and sales forecasts.
• Coordinate with fleet, operations and accounts to ensure commitments are achievable and customers are onboarded effectively.
• Share market insight, customer feedback and ideas that improve our offering.
• Represent Coolmotion UK at customer meetings, networking opportunities and relevant industry events.

Who we’re looking for

You are commercially sharp, proactive and comfortable being accountable for results.

You know how to open doors, ask the right questions and turn a customer’s operational challenge into a compelling proposal.

You will bring:

• A proven record of winning profitable business in vehicle rental, leasing or commercial vehicle contract hire.
• Experience managing the full sales process, from prospecting through to negotiation and closing.
• Evidence of achieving targets and developing lasting customer relationships.
• Strong territory planning, organisation and pipeline management.
• The confidence to put ideas forward and the discipline to follow them through.
• Sound commercial judgement around pricing, margin and customer suitability.
• Clear communication and a collaborative approach to working with operational teams.
• Confidence using CRM systems and sales reporting tools.
• A full driving licence valid in the UK and willingness to travel regularly across your territory.

Refrigerated or temperature-controlled vehicle experience is highly desirable.

We also welcome outstanding candidates from the wider commercial vehicle rental and leasing sector.

What you can expect

• A competitive basic salary reflecting your experience.
• Performance-related commission, with the opportunity to share in the growth you deliver.
• Ownership of a defined regional territory.
• Home-based working alongside regular customer visits and planned meetings at our Leicester head office.
• Direct access to senior management and the opportunity to influence commercial decisions.
• A role where your initiative, ideas and contribution will be visible.
• The opportunity to develop your career as the business grows.
