Sonic Summary
- Our client, an expanding engineering business, is seeking a Sales Administrator to join their sales team.
- The ideal candidate should have excellent written English skills, be well-organized, and have the ability to manage multiple concurrent projects independently.
- Candidates with ONC or HNC qualifications, or relevant experience from a manufacturing background, are preferred, along with a good understanding of technical sales.
- The role offers a salary of £25,000 to £30,000 and requires previous experience in a sales administration role, ideally within an engineering or manufacturing environment.
- As the Sales Administrator becomes more comfortable, there is potential for advancement into a Sales Executive role.
The appointed Sales Administrator will need to have good technical knowledge (ONC / HNC qualified would be great, but experience from working in a manufacturing company a capable substitute) and will work alongside the technical team to better understand customer requirements. You don't need to be an engineer but you do need to understand the requirements of a technical sale and be able to write proposals that draw on technical info. You'll be given free reign (within reason!) to manage your own diary and must be well organised with good overall knowledge of the sales process. You'll be working on existing accounts and already 'opened' new accounts but as you progress you'll be able to target the contracts you want to work on and build the relationships you feel will best suit the business if you'd like.
