Bradford, United Kingdom Driver Hire Group Services Ltd Full time
In 2023, we proudly celebrated our 40th anniversary as the leading force in specialist transport and logistics recruitment, standing tall as the largest in the nation. But what really sets us apart is our people – a vibrant, passionate team dedicated to excellence, collaboration and growth, whilst making sure we find time to have fun along the way.
Building on our successful reputation in the logistics sector, we pride ourselves on being more than just recruiters – we’re also one of the UK’s largest Driver CPC training providers. In 2023, we successfully delivered over 57,000 training days, solidifying our dedication to excellence in the training sector. It’s as a result of our continuing success in this field that we’re looking for a new Business Development Assistant to join the team.
What the role of Business Development Assistant involves
As a Business Development Assistant, you’ll work hand in hand with our field sales team, assisting them by scheduling appointments and ensuring seamless coordination between your telesales efforts and their in-person engagements. Additionally, you’ll play a crucial role in following up on marketing campaigns, gauging their effectiveness, and collecting valuable customer feedback to inform future sales and marketing strategies.
If you’re passionate about sales, possess exceptional communication skills, and thrive in a collaborative environment, we want to hear from you
Business Development Assistant key responsibilities
* Proactively reaching out to logistics professionals to introduce our training services and make appointments for your field sales colleagues to attend
* Work closely with the telesales and field sales team to provide them with the necessary information, support and follow-up on leads all generated
* Collecting customer feedback to gain insights into their experiences, informing future sales and marketing strategies
Business Development Assistant qualifications/qualities
* Previous telesales experience or a knack for persuasion. If this is within the logistics industry – even better
* Excellent communication skills, both verbal and written
* Strong computer literacy, including proficiency with CRM systems and/or other sales software
* Ability to work independently whilst also collaborating effectively within a team environment
What it’s like to work with us
Whilst the Business Development Assistant role demands a high degree of focus and commitment, it's not all serious business here - we believe in a relaxed yet results-driven approach to business, where hard work is celebrated just as much as success.
We take pride in our collaborative culture, where every voice is valued and respected, and we invest in our team’s growth because we understand that our success is intertwined with yours. Moreover, our dedication to nurturing our team has been recognised through recent reaccreditation under Investors in People, a milestone we’ve maintained since 1995.
Benefits
* A competitive salary (£24.5-26k p.a. DOE)
* Hybrid working
* Free on-site parking
* Free lunch once a month during company all-hands days
* Regular internal and external training courses
* Benefits scheme providing you with retail and gym discounts, virtual GP service, and money back for healthcare such as dental, optical and physio treatments for you and any dependent children
* 33 days holiday (including Bank Holidays), plus an extra day off on your birthday
* An optional paid day off every year to volunteer in your local community
