Who are we?
We are a leading print branding company with over 45 years of experience. We service multiple Global and National brands across a range of products and services. From conceptual retail in-store bespoke design to full through-the-line window and in-store campaign production to an exclusive European patented range of POS products, we cater to many needs. In essence, we are a large-scale production house executing clients’ in-store brand presence via various products, services, and media. Overall, we form part of the branding chain for our clients within various industries and markets; hence, there are multiple sales opportunities that exist for potential new business development. Focused new product development also allows for increased sales opportunities.

Type of Person We Are Looking For:
This experienced individual needs to be highly driven with an eager and confident approach to developing a network of contacts to attract new customers at a higher end.

The position requires hard work and effort to open new doors with key potential new customers. Having marketing experience, a natural creative mind, and being an excellent communicator with an ability to build relationships with people utilizing all available communication platforms is the person we are seeking.

The individual needs to be able to confidently present to senior marketing and brand teams in a relaxed but assured manner that will gain potential trust and the ability to close the deal. We are a supportive management team and work together with sales across all areas to ensure success, but ultimately the individual needs to have inner entrepreneurial skills and a burning desire to deliver and make their set sales targets. Going the extra mile, putting in the hard work to build your sales funnel with the right caliber of potential customers, and being highly proactive will propel you in the direction of success in this role. With such a diverse range of products and services, the world is your oyster in terms of new client possibilities across various market sectors and industries.
