Job description

Our client is an established publishing and marketing services company specialising in international B2B magazines in the cruise, technology and golf industries. They are looking for a Sales Account Manager to join their team.

The company is based in Leicester but, if you can demonstrate the ability to successfully do so, you can opt to work remotely.

You must be able to travel to Leicester for your initial training period and as required following this for team meetings and further training.

About the role
Our client is looking for an articulate individual who enjoys engagement with prospects and clients. The role includes:

  • Sourcing and researching prospective clients for one of our publication brands
  • Presenting the marketing opportunities available to companies through these brands to support their business goals
  • Selling directory entries, advertising and sponsorship packages
  • Collaborating with the in-house editorial and design teams to guarantee that your sales promises are fulfilled
  • Managing client relationships to ensure their complete satisfaction and to explore cross, repeat and up-selling opportunities
  • Completing additional ad hoc assignments to contribute to the success of the team and the wider business

About the rewards
For the role of Sales Account Manager there is on offer:

Salary
A basic salary of between £27,000 to £30,000 per annum, depending on ability and experience.

Uncapped commission
The ability to earn uncapped commission with a generous commission scheme on offer.

Benefits

  • Contributory pension scheme
  • Initially 22 days annual leave plus 8 bank holidays (gradually increasing to 25 days plus bank holidays with length of service)

About you
Sales experience would be welcome, but it is not a prerequisite as full training and support for the successful candidate will be provided. The most important thing is that you must be confident talking to senior decision makers both on the telephone and in person and be driven to learn about their industry with the ability to cultivate strong working relationships with them.
