3. Building relationships with decision–makers and understanding their unique business challenges
4. Positioning our client's service solutions as the answer to those challenges
5. Facilitating meetings between qualified prospects and the CEO to close deals
6. Developing strategic partnerships to generate warm opportunities
7. Leveraging web analytics and tracking to maximise conversion of inbound leads

The Ideal Candidate

1. Proven experience in B2B service/solution sales (ideally NOT product sales)
2. Strong track record in prospecting, qualifying, and setting up closable opportunities
3. Experience selling complex service solutions to SMEs – the more complex, the better!
4. Exceptional relationship–building skills with the ability to quickly establish credibility
5. Self–motivated, results–driven attitude with natural hunger and ambition
6. Excellent communication and presentation skills
7. Ability to understand and articulate complex service propositions
8. Strong organizational skills to effectively manage multiple prospects
9. Proficiency with Microsoft Excel preferred

What my client offers:

1. Realistic targets focused on quality over quantity
2. An established database of prospects built over several years
3. Direct collaboration with senior leadership
4. Flexibility in working arrangements (Office based with some remote days available)
5. The opportunity to make a significant impact on company growth

This is an exceptional opportunity for a driven sales professional looking to join a company where quality relationships and service excellence are prioritised over transactional volume.
