3. Sales Performance: Consistently work towards (and exceed!) branch and individual sales targets, with a clear focus on volume, margin, and profit.
4. Lead Generation: Proactively reach out to dormant accounts, follow up on quotes, and work closely with the external sales team to identify local project opportunities
5. CRM & Administration: Maintain accurate records in our CRM system, keeping quotes and customer activity up to date and assisting with invoicing queries when needed.
6. Product Knowledge: Develop a strong understanding of our construction materials and industry standards, offering advice to customers on compliance and product suitability.
7. Health, Safety & Environment: Champion a safe working environment by actively promoting a culture of safety at all time.

What you’ll bring:

8. A proven track record in internal sales or account management
9. Excellent communication and negotiation skills
10. Strong organisational ability with attention to detail
11. Confidence using Microsoft Office, CRM tools and sales systems
12. Ability to work under pressure and hit deadlines
13. Flexibility and a proactive, team-oriented approach

What we offer:

14. Competitive salary

16. Company pension with up to 7.5% employer contribution.
17. Life assurance (up to 4x salary).
