Sales Manager

A fantastic opportunity has arisen for an experienced Sales Manager with a very commercial and customer centric focus, to join a progressive, successful and highly people oriented growing international organisation. They are keen to hear from ambitious sales professionals who thrive on taking full ownership, are results oriented and are extremely hands-on in both leading and developing their teams and in securing new business. This is an excellent platform from which to really drive the business to its next level of success. Whilst you may not know the company products and services, each day they work with businesses that impact the lives of millions of people in the UK. The business is ambitious, and with plans to grow in the UK service industry they have an unrelenting desire to become an employer of choice. It is a meritocracy, and they promote and reward individuals who deliver against objectives and show great performance. Ambition and enthusiasm are key traits of their employees who live the values of respect, integrity, exemplarity and responsibility. To give you a feel for their ethics and commitment, the company achieved the PLATINUM level of Ecovadis positioning them among the Top 1% of the 125,000 companies assessed by Ecovadis, meaning a commitment to minimising environmental impact. You will lead and nurture a team of 8 field sales executives, developing sales strategies to drive revenue growth, and whilst the role is 100% focused on new business wins, this will be backed up by a solid sales support and account management function, allowing you to take the service offering confidently to market. A proven track record of success within B2B is essential, and if this has been developed within the hospitality sector, even better! In addition to excellent communication, rapport building, organisational and presentation skills, what will really make you stand out is your passion, resilience, results oriented, self-starting approach. A likeable, straight-forward, honest individual with drive and energy are key traits the client values highly. Preference will be given to candidates that are degree educated and have leadership / management courses under their belt or can demonstrate commitment to personal and professional development. This is an exceptional opportunity to be part of a hugely successful, financially stable and expanding international business where there is genuine opportunity for career advancement.
