About The Role
As a Team Leader, you drive sales performance by being out in the field with your people.
You’ll coach them through real customer interactions, help them build effective selling habits, and use data to focus their time on the opportunities that matter most. You support new hires, develop experienced team members, and bring structure and clarity that give everyone the confidence to hit their targets.
You’ll help your team plan the right activity - from first appointments and customer preparation to quotes, cost‑saving insights, and closing conversations - ensuring they follow a proven, consistent approach that delivers predictable results.
Your mission: empower your team to succeed, achieve KPIs and targets, and build a high‑performing, supportive sales culture where everyone can thrive.
What You’ll Be Doing
* Leading from the front in the field - coaching your team in real customer situations, building strong selling habits and raising the standard of every customer conversation.
* Developing people, not just activity - running effective huddles, 1:1s and reviews, giving clear, behaviour‑focused feedback and supporting both new hires and experienced salespeople to grow.
* Creating a winning sales rhythm and pipeline - setting structured weekly routines, ensuring every team member owns a healthy, well‑qualified pipeline with clear next steps and predictable results.
* Driving performance through insight - using data to spot patterns early, unblock issues and lead confident performance conversations that help each person improve.
* Protecting quality and “the Safetykleen way” - role‑modeling professional, value‑led sales behaviour and quality‑checking key steps like preparation, quotes and follow‑up to ensure equal success and partnership for the customer and Safetykleen.
About You
* A performance‑driven field sales leader with a proven track record of winning new business and consistently hitting ambitious B2B targets.
* A real coach: you challenge, support and grow people, not just manage them by the numbers.
* Comfortable having performance conversations – not the easy ones, but the ones that reset standards and drive results.
* Disciplined and data‑led, using CRM, pipeline, forecasting and activity insights to decide what happens next.
* Hold a valid driving licence – a must have.
