Sales & Trading Executive

Location: 1 Brewers Green

Reports to: Head of Parts Trading

Rolls-Royce & Partners Finance Limited

Why Rolls-Royce?

An exciting opportunity has become available for a Sales & Trading Executive to join our RRPF team.

Rolls-Royce & Partners Finance Limited ("RRPF") is a jet engine leasing company with the largest global portfolio of Rolls-Royce and IAE V2500-A5 aero engines. We provide medium and long-term spare engine leasing and bespoke financial solutions to airlines, aircraft lessors, and OEMs and support over 60 customers worldwide with a portfolio of over 500 jet engines.

This role sits within the Parts Trading Team; a fast-paced, close-knit team responsible for maximising the residual value of our engines and providing aftermarket solutions to MROs and airlines.

To be successful in this role, you will need to have experience and a passion for the aviation industry, exposure to sales or leasing, an eye for detail, and be capable of working with a diverse mix of external customers and internal partners.

Work with us and we'll provide an environment where you can be yourself. An inclusive, digital-first culture that invests in you, gives you a platform for continuous learning, and access to an incredible breadth and depth of opportunities to grow your career.

We offer excellent development, a competitive salary, and exceptional benefits. These include bonus, employee support assistance, and employee discounts.

Your needs are as unique as you are. Hybrid working is a way in which our people can balance their time between the office, home, or another remote location. It's a locally managed and flexed informal discretionary arrangement. As a minimum, we're all expected to attend the workplace for collaboration and other specific reasons, on average three days per week.

What you will be doing:

This is a key role within the RRPF family; the main responsibilities include:

• Grow the Parts Trading customer base through parts sales and trading activity, achieving budgeted and stretch sales targets.
• Manage key accounts; establish and maintain strong customer relationships and oversee the transaction process from initial sales call to product delivery.
• Actively propose system improvements to speed up response times and service delivery to customers.
• Record sales opportunities and customer updates on CRM, draft and maintain account management plan.
• Attend conferences and other industry events to expand network and source new leads, collating and sharing market intelligence with the wider team.

Who we're looking for:

• 3+ years experience in aviation sales or equivalent.
• Efficient time management skills, ability to multi-task and prioritise workload in a fast-paced environment.
• Good communication and influencing skills; able to deal with airlines, MROs, and lessors, at senior management levels.
• Results focused with strong attention to detail, good numerical reasoning and drafting skills.
• Flexible, robust, strong team player, open to new ideas and self-driven.
• Always act with honesty, integrity and take responsibility.
• Background in sales or leasing within aviation and a passion for the industry preferred.
• Frequent international travel is required.

We are an equal opportunities employer. We're committed to developing a diverse workforce and an inclusive working environment. We believe that people from different backgrounds and cultures give us different perspectives. And the more perspectives we have, the more successful we'll be. By building a culture of respect and appreciation, we give everyone who works here the opportunity to realise their full potential.
