Lead from the front, develop a strong sales team and make a direct impact on revenue growth.
Our client is looking for an experienced Sales Manager who enjoys developing people just as much as winning business.
This is a hands-on leadership opportunity within an established organisation, combining team management, coaching and performance development with active involvement in the sales process. You will support the team to improve results while remaining confident stepping into customer conversations, handling objections and helping convert opportunities when required.
Why Apply?
- Competitive salary with additional bonus potential
- Hybrid working with two days from home each week
- Opportunity to shape and develop a small sales team
- A varied position combining leadership with hands-on selling
- Scope to influence sales performance and wider commercial growth
The Role:
As Sales Manager, you will take responsibility for developing sales performance while creating a positive, supportive and accountable environment for the team.
Your responsibilities will include:
- Coaching, motivating and developing sales team members through regular feedback and one-to-one support
- Monitoring sales activity, conversion levels and performance against agreed targets
- Leading by example and becoming directly involved in more challenging sales opportunities where required
- Supporting the team with objection handling, negotiation and closing business
- Identifying opportunities to increase revenue from both new and existing customers
- Encouraging effective upselling, cross-selling, renewals and customer retention
- Supporting a mixture of inbound and outbound sales activity
- Working closely with marketing colleagues to improve lead generation and follow-up
- Reviewing lead quality and identifying opportunities to strengthen conversion
- Maintaining an accurate sales pipeline and ensuring customer information is kept up to date
- Looking for practical ways to improve sales processes and commercial performance
The ideal Sales Manager will have:
- Previous experience managing or leading a sales team
- A strong track record of coaching and developing salespeople
- Hands-on sales experience with the confidence to become personally involved in closing opportunities
- Experience working towards sales, conversion or revenue targets
- Strong negotiation, communication and objection-handling skills
- A proactive and commercially focused approach
- The ability to motivate others while maintaining clear performance expectations
- Experience working within a business-to-business, consumer sales or comparable commercial sales environment
Experience using CRM systems, supporting recurring customer revenue or working alongside marketing-led sales campaigns would be useful, although these are not essential requirements.
This could be an excellent opportunity for an experienced Sales Manager, Telesales Manager, Inside Sales Manager or established Sales Team Leader who wants a role where people development and personal sales involvement carry equal importance.
