Alongside a starting salary of £29,000 - £31,000, you'll benefit from an annual company profit share bonus, comprehensive product training and genuine opportunities to develop a long-term career in sales and account management.

About the Opportunity

Our client is a long-established specialist distributor supplying genuine spare parts and replacement products from many of the world's leading manufacturers.

Working across heating, ventilation, hot water, domestic appliances and commercial catering equipment, they support electrical wholesalers, contractors, facilities management companies, maintenance providers and trade professionals throughout the UK.

As part of a larger group, the business combines the stability and resources of an established organisation with the friendly, supportive environment of a close-knit local team.

The Role

As a Graduate Sales Executive, you'll receive the training and support needed to develop your product knowledge, commercial skills and confidence in professional B2B sales.

You'll build relationships with new and existing customers, manage your own portfolio of accounts and identify opportunities to grow sales. The role combines proactive business development, account management and inbound customer enquiries, giving you broad commercial experience from the outset.

Your responsibilities will include:

• Be organised, proactive and willing to learn
• Want to develop a long-term career in B2B sales, account management and business development

No previous sales or industry experience is required. Your attitude, enthusiasm and willingness to learn are far more important than your existing product knowledge.
