To truly run your department (while still collaborating) and work effectively with the wider business, you must have a deep understanding of your area.

  • Streamline operations: Implement a new sales process, manage order processing flow, and ensure smooth handovers between sales and operations teams.
  • Embrace change: Champion the implementation of a previously developed transformation plan to optimise sales performance.

To be successful, you'll bring:

  • Proven ability to sell complex tailored solutions, such as design or other professional services.
  • Proven sales management experience: A track record of success in sales management, ideally within the house building or a related industry, with experience leading a team of at least 6 sales professionals.
  • Strong leadership skills: The ability to motivate, inspire, and coach your team to achieve their full potential. Natural and proven examples of driving sales teams.
  • Strategic thinking: A deep understanding of sales methodologies and best practices, with the ability to develop and execute winning sales strategies.
  • Excellent communication and interpersonal skills: The ability to build strong relationships with both internal and external stakeholders.
  • Analytical mind: Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with a data-driven approach to sales.
  • Tech-savvy: Proficiency in using CRM systems and sales tools.

The package: A generous package with up to £85,000 DOE + Bonus + Car

Performance-based bonus: A lucrative bonus structure with significant earning potential.

  • Exciting opportunity: Make a significant impact in a fast-paced and growing business.
