Sonic Summary

info
  • The position is for a sales role with a leading not-for-profit organization serving the property sector, focusing on a consultative approach rather than hard selling.
  • Candidates should have experience in face-to-face B2B sales or some sales experience within the property sector, ideally with a full driving license.
  • The role covers the East of England, specifically Berkshire, Surrey, and Hampshire, and involves an average of three customer visits per day, with flexibility for remote work.
  • The salary is not explicitly stated, but the commission structure is limited, making it suitable for those motivated by service rather than purely financial gain.
  • Interested applicants should submit their CV and specify their current location, required salary, and notice period, as the role is expected to be filled quickly.

Either you have experience selling B2B products/services face to face and are seeking a challenge at an organisation where it's not a 'sell sell sell' set up and consultive approach is key. Or you have some sales experience and experience of the property sector and are keen to try something new.

We're working with a leading not for profit organisation that provides a legally required service for the property sector as they seek to grow and enhance their position within the industry. This is a new role servicing the East of England, and a patch covering Berkshire, Surrey & Hampshire.

Based from home after an initial 3 week training course, you will be provided with a car and all the tools to build and grow your customer base. Expectation would be an average of 3 customer visits a day across the week, though it's likely you would be at home a couple of days and doing 5 per day across 3.

This is not a hard sales role, and it's a product/service that property business must provide by law, your job is to educate the businesses on the product and advise why it's better and different to the other market products, with the hope of them joining.

As it's not a hard sales role and you are working for a not for profit organisation there is not a huge commission package on offer, so whilst sales ability and motivation to operate a field based sales role is desired, the position will not suit people only motivated by money. It would much better suit salespeople motivated by service, and a role that isn't cut hard sales where the doors for appointments are much easier to open.

If you have face to face sales experience, some interest in the property sector, a full (Ideally clean) driving licence and live on or near to the region the position is covering we would love to speak with you. So please send us through your CV and if you have the right skills and experience we will be in touch. Please don't delay getting in touch as we anticipate the role will be filled within a few weeks.
