THIS IS A SALES ROLE – NOT CUSTOMER SERVICE
Are you a driven salesperson who thrives on hitting targets, building relationships and earning uncapped commission?
We're looking for ambitious, commercially-minded individuals to join a successful and well-established business. If you enjoy speaking with customers, identifying opportunities and closing deals, this could be the perfect next step.
If you're seeking a customer service or administrative role, this position is unlikely to be the right fit.
About the Company
Our client is a long-established, award-winning wholesale distributor supplying trade customers across the UK. With decades of success behind them, they have built an outstanding reputation for customer service, product quality and long-term partnerships.
Due to continued growth, they are now looking to strengthen their sales team with an ambitious and target-driven Sales Account Manager.
The Opportunity
This is a proactive account management role where you'll manage an established portfolio of trade customers while identifying opportunities to grow sales and increase revenue.
You'll be responsible for:
✔ Managing and developing existing customer accounts
✔ Proactively contacting customers to generate orders
✔ Identifying upselling and cross-selling opportunities
✔ Re-engaging dormant accounts
✔ Building long-term customer relationships
✔ Achieving and exceeding weekly and monthly sales targets
This is not a passive account management role. Success comes from picking up the phone, creating opportunities and driving revenue growth.

Growing customer spend and profitability
