Zero Surplus
We are currently collaborating with a well-established Cambridgeshire-based manufacturer with over two decades of industry experience in the supply of products to the consumer and B2B construction market. The client is seeking an office based Inside Sales Executive who can focus on maximising sales opportunities within a specific geographical area.
The manufacturer has full control over the quality and selection of their products, and they provide unmatched quality and service. Therefore, they are looking for a skilled salesperson with strong account management and growth capabilities.
The successful candidate will work in collaboration with the Inside Sales Manager, and closely with the wider sales team to implement strategies to enhance sales potential. Whilst most sales with be from existing customers, some outbound sales will be required to either lapsed or new potential clients. You will be expected to maximise the order potential from both inbound and outbound enquiries to achieve monthly KPI targets.
The ideal candidate will have proven inside sales experience within a similar fast-paced environment where you would be working towards overachieving KPIs. A strong telephone presence and the ability to multi-task, prioritise and manage your time effectively would be advantageous. Working within a comparable sector such as KBB, construction, electrical or plumbing would be a benefit but is not essential.
Due to the location of the Bedfordshire-based office, this role will be commutable from either Cambridge, Ely, Downham Market, Chatteris, Newmarket, Littleport, Bury St Edmunds and Thetford
