Northampton | Hybrid working | Leadership opportunity

Millbrook Business Finance is at a pivotal moment in its journey — and we're looking for a Sales Director to help lead the charge.

With a talented team of 17+ salespeople, strong momentum, and a bold vision for growth, we’re ready to move into our next phase. But to truly scale, we need a proven sales leader to bring structure, consistency, and a high-performance culture to the sales floor.

This is more than a leadership role — it's your opportunity to shape the future of one of the UK’s most ambitious commercial finance brokerages.

What You’ll Do:

• Define and drive a clear, motivating sales vision and culture
• Establish KPIs, build structure, and elevate performance standards
• Coach and develop the team — not just top performers, but everyone
• Take full ownership of daily sales operations
• Build scalable systems, repeatable processes, and a team structure that grows with us
• Partner with marketing to align lead generation and outbound strategy
• Lead with energy, visibility, and belief — every single day

What You’ll Bring:

• 5+ years in senior sales leadership (Sales Director, Head of Sales, etc.)
• Experience managing sales teams of 15+, ideally in a finance or brokerage setting
• Commercial lending knowledge (commercial loans & asset finance preferred)
• Deep understanding of CRM performance management (HubSpot a plus)
• A track record of developing people, improving performance, and driving growth
• Leadership that inspires focus, professionalism, and ambition
• Experience in cross department collaboration, including marketing, operations and business support

What You’ll Get:

• A leadership role with true ownership and autonomy
• Performance-linked bonus override aligned to team size and output
• A 180-day onboarding plan to set you up for success
• The backing of a leadership team that’s ready to support and step back
• Hybrid working opportunities

If you’re a sales leader ready to drive culture, performance, and long-term success, get in touch. Let’s talk.
