THE ROLE: As a BDM within this division of the business, you will manage a variety of customers and stakeholders across Regional Developers, Housing Associations, Some Senior Living Developers and Contractors. You will be selling a very strong British brand of LVT flooring. This role will involve long term project management, a juggling of many hats and working on tender frameworks for specific product requirements. Working as part of a small, close knit and highly successful sales team, you will represent a profitable and forward-thinking manufacturer with over 60 years of legacy in this market.

Key to success in this role is a proven track record of consultative sales and strong sales process with effective communication techniques. Candidates from a flooring or construction background with new business sales experience will be highly desirable. Previous knowledge of housing associations or developers is preferred but not essential.
THE COMPANY: Established in the Midlands over 60 years ago, the holding company is a global market leader in both luxury and affordable flooring solutions. This division of the company has been recently established to drive their more affordable and lower priced product in the high rise sector. The BDM has a focus on delivering affordable, quality flooring to high rise residential, senior living blocks and social housing developments. It is constantly diversifying in order to offer integrated and environmentally sensitive products.

·Ability to manage a pipeline of projects and long sales cycle
·A consultative, driven and professional salesperson with good attention to detail
