Kickstart Your Career in Sales with a Role That Actually Excites You
Trainee Business Development Executive
Location: Middlesbrough
Salary: From £27,000+ (Depending on Experience)
Company: Sigma PlantFinder UK
Ready to launch a high-energy, people-focused career where no two days are the same?
At Sigma PlantFinder UK, we don’t just sell machinery—we build global connections, solve real-world challenges, and make serious moves in the used piling and drilling machinery industry.
With over 50 years of experience, we’re leaders in our field—and now, we’re looking for a Trainee Business Development Executive who’s hungry to learn, eager to grow, and ready to bring personality to the world of B2B sales.
What You’ll Be Doing:
You’ll be the friendly voice at the end of the line—reaching out to customers and prospects, having real conversations, and building relationships that lead to major sales. This is not a pushy call-centre gig. It’s about being genuinely valuable to people, understanding their machinery needs, and making connections that count.
You’ll:
* Call out to leads and prospects and spark meaningful conversations
* Build a solid network of contacts and become their go-to advisor
* Identify what clients need and offer smart, practical solutions
* Support our experienced Business Development team and close deals
* Help shape our sales strategy as we grow
* Dive into market research and uncover new opportunities
* Attend trade shows and industry events to represent our brand
Why This Role is a Game-Changer:
* Serious career growth: Learn from top-tier pros, build your confidence, and open the door to massive opportunities in sales and international business.
* Real rewards: Starting salary from £27K with performance-based bonuses. Your hustle = real results.
* Work that matters: You’ll be dealing with high-value, capital goods—this isn’t your average entry-level role.
* Vibrant team culture: Friendly, fast-paced, and future-focused. We care about people, not just quotas.
What We’re Looking For:
* A confident communicator who enjoys talking to people and asking smart questions
* Someone hungry to learn and build a long-term career in sales
* A curious mind who’s not afraid to pick up the phone, do some digging, and make things happen
Perks and Benefits:
* 25 days holiday + bank holidays (yes, you read that right!)
* Free on-site parking
* Opportunities to travel and attend industry events
* Performance-based bonuses
* Be part of a company where your ideas actually matter
Ready to Take the First Step?
* If you’re ambitious, enthusiastic, and ready to make your mark, we want to hear from you. Send us your CV today and let’s talk about your future at Sigma.
