Training and support are provided on the job as well as a clear and defined monthly sales plan from your manager. You will be eligible for our sales incentive plan when you have passed your probationary period.

The role is full time (35 hours a week) but we welcome applicants that would consider working on a part time or job share basis We offer flexible working patterns and you can work between the hours of 8am and 6pm to suit your needs.

About the role

As a Customer Sales Executive, you will be provided with ongoing training and support to work on both reactive and proactive sales campaigns in-line with our sales strategies. Campaigns cover our full range of Group products and services, delivered to both new and existing customers. Achieving performance targets and pipeline activity through managing a caseload of customers or campaign objectives, predominantly over the phone but also email based as well. You'll generate sales meetings and customer demonstrations for the specialist team.

You will also manage customer inboxes for new centre enquiries and general enquiries into the department as well as working collaboratively with colleagues across the business to bring the right expertise to the business. A key element of the role is also analysing trends and insights, to drive business decisions and continuous improvement.

About you

We are very much open to background so long as you demonstrate the transferability of your skills and have the right attitude. We are looking for motivated, hardworking and passionate individuals who are confident in making outbound calls and who have a strong resilient work ethic. Ideally, you will have some experience in sales or generating new business, but it is not essential.

You'll be accountable for meeting your own deadlines, targets and KPI’s so you must be customer-focused, have a passion for delivering a great customer experience and be comfortable working to quarterly targets. Finally, you'll need great team working skills as well as possessing a flexible, adaptable approach and be motivated by new challenges. 

Full training and ongoing support is provided in this role as well as a  defined monthly plan by your manager. This is a fantastic opportunity to develop your sales and account management skills, which could develop into more senior sales roles or act as a stepping stone to other functions within the business.
