Basingstoke, United Kingdom Ashby Signs Ltd Full time

Looking for a change of direction or just starting out on your long-drawn-out struggle to survive in the working world?

We might just be the company for you.

Ideally, we are looking for someone with a bit of spark and enthusiasm, willing to work hard and put their nose to the grindstone alongside our existing group of misfits. If you are weak minded or have woke tendencies please do not apply, we work on the premise that a spade is a spade, we work hard and pay well, but also understand that life isn’t all unicorns and rainbows, that’s why it’s called work, because you have to work at it.

The position offered comes with complete and comprehensive product and system training, our only caveat is that you can read, write and know how to operate a PC, everything else will fall into place.

**A little bit about us**

Ashby Trade Sign Supplies Ltd is a family owned privately held trade supplier to the UK signage industry. Our company of twenty years designs and fabricates raw aluminium into component, semi-finished or fully finished (vinyl or printed graphics) signage systems in our 32,000sqft factory located just outside Basingstoke.

The core principles of speed and efficiency are the focus of everything that we do to satisfy both customer requirements and profitability of the business.

We are looking to expand our small sales team by hiring like-minded enthusiastic individuals.

If you consider yourself a confident, chatty person but are you worried about a lack of experience, don’t. What is imperative is a keen eye, enthusiasm and a desire to learn and understand. We will, in return offer as much assistance as is necessary to make you an effective, contributing member of the team. Most important attributes include a positive, “jump-in” attitude, good communication and organisation skills and IT proficiency.

**Duties include (but not limited to)**:

- Building and attaining a working relationship with customers
- Advise customers on product suitability
- Upload information accurately to existing CRM
- Produce quotes and raise orders
- Make outbound calls to follow up quotations and update contact details
- Ad-hoc tasks

We are offering £24,960 as a starting rate increasing to £29,120 per year based on working an 8-hour day upon successful completion of the probation period.

The business hours are 08.00 - 18.00, with our factory running from 07.00 - 18.00 Monday to Friday.

Working hours will be on a rota basis either 08.00 - 17.00 or 09.00 - 18.00 with a 30-minute unpaid lunchbreak (up to one hour can be taken each day).

Our work attire is casual, no shirts or ties here..., an embroidered 'Ashby' polo or collared t-shirt and jeans, the reason being is we believe this best reflects our customer base from whom we do not intend to place ourselves above by way of reflecting their working style.
