Sales & Business Development Lead (Electrical Wholesale)
Location: Hoddesdon Employment Type: Full-Time, Permanent Salary: From £32,000 + Profit Share + Benefits
Are you a proactive closer who thrives in a hands‑on, fast‑paced environment? A successful independent electrical wholesaler is looking for a driven Sales & Business Development Lead to join a tight-knit team and play a key role in accelerating growth.
This is not a passive desk job, you’ll be at the heart of the action, from managing high‑value accounts to shaping the company’s digital presence.
Key Responsibilities
1. Drive Growth: Generate new business through proactive internal quoting and external sales activity.
2. Build Relationships: Develop strong, long-term connections with local contractors and industrial clients.
3. Boost Digital Presence: Lead social media activity to promote products, offers, and updates.
4. Stay Market-Savvy: Monitor industry trends to keep stock, pricing, and promotions competitive.
5. Collaborate: Work closely with a small team to deliver a personalised service that stands out from larger chains.
What You’ll Bring
6. Sales Experience: Ideally within electrical wholesale, construction, or a related sector.
7. Strong Communication: Confident on the phone, on-site, and across digital platforms.
8. Digital Confidence: Comfortable using social media to drive engagement and brand awareness.
9. Self-Starter Attitude: Enjoys variety, autonomy, and the pace of a small-business environment.
Why This Role Stands Out
10. Competitive Salary: Starting from £32,000, depending on experience.
11. Profit Share: When the business succeeds, you share in the reward.
12. Real Influence: Your ideas and input will directly shape the company’s direction and growth.
