Role Overview
This is an extremely rewarding Account Management role with a market-leading manufacturer of specialist Care Equipment and Disability Aids sold to local authorities, hospitals, health trusts, care homes, rehabilitation centres and specialist charities. It is a highly consultative and non-pushy sales role that is better suited to an altruistic individual looking for a gratifying role rather than one with large bonuses. It requires a consultative sales professional who has sold products and/or services into the public sector, care sector or NHS and understands complex procurement processes and how to navigate various stakeholders to secure sales.
In Return, You Will Receive
- £60,000 Basic salary
- £550 per month car allowance.
- 5% employer pension contributions plus generous holidays

What You'll Do:
- Champion change: Sell cutting-edge Disability Aids and devices to local authorities and specialist care facilities.
- Build trust and rapport: Develop close relationships with local authority contacts, understanding their specific needs and challenges. These are typically 'non-commercial people', so your style must be advice-giving, empathetic and guiding, as many of the contacts are unaware of budgets and resources that are available to them.
- Expert advisor: Demonstrating your deep product knowledge, explain the benefits of the solutions and provide consultative sales support. The products are world-leading, and the sales is generally around how the increased cost and quality outweigh cheaper alternatives in the medium to long term.
- Secure success: Close deals, manage accounts, and ensure customer satisfaction.
- Travel: Be prepared to travel throughout the UK & Eire to meet client needs.
- Problem solver: Find creative solutions within budget constraints, ensuring client satisfaction and the success of numerous incentives to improve the quality of life of people in the local authority's care.
