Graduate Internal Sales Executive

The company

Established over 30 years ago, this technical company supplies raw materials that are key to a number of production processes across the UK and Ireland. Turning over around £50 million themselves, they are part of a wider business group with a turnover in excess of £400 million. Selling into a number of different industries, they are now expanding their internal sales team in Congleton and seeking an ambitious graduate keen for a great career opportunity.

What is the role doing?

As an Internal Sales Executive, your first 12 months will be spent in a phone-based sales role. Speaking to decision-makers across different industries, you will be trained on how to up-sell, develop client relations, handle objections, and much more. 80% of the role will be dealing with active/previous clients, whilst 20% of the role will be targeting new businesses. There is no experience needed here, just a hunger to get into the world of sales. Full training, internal and through external providers, will be provided.

There is huge scope for progression in this role, with the most likely initial route seeing you move into more of a client-facing position, out in the field, after a year or so excelling in the graduate role.

What are the company looking for?

• Someone ambitious, ready to pick up the phone with confidence to build a network
• Resilience, you may have some difficult days in sales!
• A likeable individual that is passionate about building relationships & being part of a great team culture
• Someone inquisitive who will always want to know more! Experience isn't key here, the hunger to learn is!

What is the package on offer?

• £25k basic salary
• Company Profit Share Scheme
• 25 days holiday + BH + one extra holiday day per year
