Responsibilities will include:
Developing and implementing a clear sales strategy to deliver sustainable, profitable growth
Work to realistic sales targets through identifying and targeting new business opportunities across relevant markets
Personally developing and winning new accounts
Working closely with production and estimating to ensure commercially viable solutions
Supporting the team with larger opportunities, pitches and negotiations
Using the company's extensive in-house manufacturing capabilities to cross-sell
Providing accurate forecasting and reporting to the Directors
Keeping abreast of market trends, competitor activity and emerging opportunities
About You

You’ll ideally have experience within one or more of the following: Digital Print - Large Format - POS / Display - Signage
You should be:
An experienced Sales Manager, Senior BDM or senior print salesperson
Able to demonstrate a strong track record of winning and developing profitable business
Technically knowledgeable enough to have credible conversations around print, substrates, production and finishing
A natural relationship builder who is equally comfortable with existing clients and cold new-business development
Commercially astute with a good understanding of margins and profitable growth
Proactive, driven and comfortable working within an independent SME environment
Someone who leads from the front rather than simply managing from behind a desk
