Group Sales Director Opportunity — Join a Growing Powerhouse!
Location: Swindon (hybrid, minimum 3 days in-office)
Salary: £70,000 - £100,000 + bonus + perks
Are you ready to lead, inspire, and roll up your sleeves (but not get stuck in the weeds)? We’re hunting for a sharp, senior sales leader to step into a vibrant, fast-growing group of companies buzzing with energy, innovation, and a seriously strong culture.
The current Sales Director (and all-around superhero), is moving on to new adventures after steering the ship through big growth, exciting acquisitions, and system upgrades - think CRM rollouts and account planning that’s ready for YOU to take and run with.
What’s on your plate?
* Leading a brilliant, dynamic team - 4 direct reports plus a lively crew of account managers and business developers.
* Juggling fast-paced, agile days packed with meetings, forecasting, budgeting, tender kick-offs, and proposals.
* Nurturing and expanding a mixed portfolio of UK and international clients across sectors like retail, beauty, construction, finance, healthcare, and more. (Pharma’s off the menu, sorry!)
* Getting hands-on with business development - this is about being proactive, not a passive emailer.
* Owning the CRM system like a boss - pipeline management is your playground.
* Supporting senior execs and being a key voice in monthly board and strategy meetings.
* Stepping into client shoes occasionally with site visits and networking events (because relationships really matter here).
Who are we looking for?
* A seasoned sales/account management leader, comfortable managing teams and tackling tough conversations.
* Someone with agency or events background who’s done the AM or AD hustle and is ready for the next big step.
* A leader who knows that charisma alone won’t cut it - you’re assertive, empathetic, and value-driven.
* Not just a big “I AM” - you lead by example and earn respect from a team that’s hungry and energetic.
* Ready to thrive in a company that puts family and values front and centre - work/life balance matters here.
* Location-wise: Swindon-based preferred, no last-minute relocations unless it’s truly the right fit.
What to expect in the hiring process?
1. Stage One: A relaxed chat with current incumbent and other SLT member - get ready to tell your story.
2. Stage Two: Deep dive with Directors on Teams - your CV and experience will be scrutinised.
3. Final: A face-to-face presentation to full SLT - you’ll talk them through managing a high-performing team and share your proudest client success.
We want you to feel ready - we’ll prep you with what to expect if you make it through the early stages!
Perks & Extras
* £70,000 - £100,000 base + commission & company bonus scheme
* Company car or allowance + mobile and laptop
* Flexible holidays, cycle to work scheme, and travel perks
* Access to a talented, fun, and supportive team
If you’re looking for a role where no two days are the same, where you can really make your mark and lead a team with heart, this is it. Ready to join a company that’s as serious about growth as it is about its people? Let’s talk.
