This successful business is looking to recruit a Decorative Panel Products Manager to work within their well-regarded company. This role will be a nice balance of account management and new business generation. The current ledger is nicely formed but can always be improved upon! New business is obviously always welcome though and does form an integral part of the role. The company deals with many large sectors within the market but also targets niches sectors too. This company is well liked both as a supplier and an employer.

You must have a sales background from within the builders merchants world. The ideal candidate would also have good knowledge of sheet materials and decorative panel products. This role will mean dealing with fabricators, contractors, architects, designers, and the end-users so you should be confident dealing with a wide range of people. You must also be able to communicate clearly to ensure the right product is ordered for the job. Attention to detail is key to maintain the sterling service the company has become known for.

They don't want an order processor!! They need a proactive, hungry sales professional ideally from the timber supplies or building supplies / builders merchants / sheet materials sector who will go above and beyond.. You will interact with customers over the phone, by email and face to face. Asking questions, finding about the projects the clients are working on, taking quotation enquiries, developing rapport with these people and upselling where possible. You will need to be able to think on your feet and ideally demonstrate sound product knowledge when called upon.

The other part of the role is working on the quotations, generating the quotes and following these up, turning them into orders. We are looking for a confident individual with high levels of customer service. This role requires someone who is proactive and will pick up the phone and talk to customers!

There are clear rewards within this company though - the right people can progress further and genuine talent will always be respected.
