Job description

Overview

Sales executive / Sales Manager (hybrid) required for a logistics company in the North West / Manchester area. This role is Hybrid, with a few days in the office and around 10-12 meetings a week with clients (not all new business, lots of relationship building meetings). This is ideal for a candidate with 2 years within sales OR a number of years within account management within a freight forwarder. You will have an understanding of freight forwarding. This role is more about being the face of the company within your patch instead of a hard core sales role. You will do 10-12 face to face meetings a week and the targets are based on winning either a new business or a repeat business instead of a financial target.

Role

We are looking for a candidate as a sales manager / Sales executive (field based) who will meet both new and repeat clients. You will ensure the client base has a range of regular visits, you will work through a list of 150 previous clients to re-win these clients, you will work on repeat business as well as brand new business. This is a client facing role with about 12 meetings each week. This role is not hard core sales, it is about client relationships as well. This role will include all the normal Sales executive (field based) duties.

Experience / Qualifications

  • Understanding of freight forwarding.
  • Candidate could be from operations moving into sales, or an account manager seeking more field-based work, or a sales executive or a business development manager looking to step into their next role.
  • Ability to hold meetings with around 10-12 meetings per week.
  • Excellent communication skills and passion for growing relationships.
  • Resident within the patch/area essential due to short notice meetings.

Remuneration & Benefits

  • £36-40k basic + annual bonus based on new clients won
  • £5k car allowance
  • Hybrid/field-based role with work from home on non-meeting days; approximately 12 client meetings per week
