Internal Sales Executive - Builders Merchants

Role: Internal Sales Executive

Location: Cumbria - Whitehaven

Sector: Timber / Building Materials / Construction Supplies / Builders Merchants / Landscaping Supplies

Package: £27,000 - £30,000 + Bonus

With a substantial network of branches our client supplies a range of timber and building products to the construction sector. This branch is busy due to an optimistic, friendly and highly driven approach.

They are looking to recruit an enthusiastic and experienced Internal Sales Executive to join their busy sales office. Timber or some kind of general Builders Merchants experience is required for this role. Also, a proven sales background is essential and you must be able to demonstrate this.

This is a very important role for our client. They don't want an order processor!! They need a proactive, hungry sales professional who's confident in their manner, great to talk to and methodical in their approach to ensure sterling service is delivered at all times.

You will interact with customers over the phone, by email and face to face. Asking questions, finding about the projects the clients are working on, taking quotation enquiries, developing rapport with these people and upselling where possible. You will need to be able to think on your feet and ideally demonstrate sound knowledge when called upon.

The other part of the role is working on those quotations, generating the quotes and following these up, turning them into orders. Basically not being afraid to pick up the phone! New business is always welcome but account management will play a big part in this role.

Excellent package within a fantastic company offering excellent career prospects. Salary is entirely negotiable on experience.
