Internal Account Manager

We are looking for an Internal Account Manager to join a lighting hire business based in Leeds. In this role, you will manage customer accounts and deal with warm sales enquiries.
This is quite a technical role where you will need to understand a wide range of products and put together detailed proposals. Experience in lighting hire or a similar industry is essential - building proposals from a detailed range of equipment to suit the customer's requirements.
This isn't a targeted role, it's more about delivering for the customer, building long term relationships and recognising sales opportunities. We still need someone who can spot an opportunity and close a sale, however you will not be pressured into hitting financial targets.
Main duties to include;

• Growing the existing customer base by converting opportunities and building long term relationships that result in repeat business
• Seek out new sales opportunities and support the growth of the department
• Organise face to face meetings for the sales team to demonstrate equipment
• Follow up on leads, seek feedback and understand why opportunities might have been missed
• Support external sales team with quotations and proposals

We are looking for;

• Previous experience in sales or account management
• Lighting hire experience or similar
• Someone who can find solutions and meet customers needs
• Excellent communication and relationship building skills
• Someone who can work interdependently and is self motivated
• Driving licence preferred, should the need arise to meet with clients

Benefits

• Basic £30k-40k
• Bonus based on company performance
• Friendly, autonomous working environment
• Hours 8.30am-5.30pm Monday to Friday
• 23 days holiday plus Bank Holidays
