Vacancy for Internal Sales Executive Domestic market, Partime
Posted 25th May 2011

SK Direct (UK) Ltd is an upcoming Importer/Distributor and Converter of Industrial Self-Adhesive Materials and Tamper Evident Solutions.

We are looking for an enthusiastic internal sales executive with a friendly investigative approach to selling. Working in a small team you will play a key part in expanding our national client database helping us to achieve £1m turnover in the next two years.

You will be responsible for locating potential business, first contact with business clients, assessing their needs, generating leads and appointments.

Some experience or affinity with industrial materials, processes, consumables or engineering would come in useful. You must be able to retain technical product information and have an organised approach to your work.

We are a small but growing team with the hands-on mentality that suits such a small organisation. The hours are part-time to start, 24 hours per week with an initial 4 month contract. We have a fairly flexible approach and have no problem fitting the hours around other engagements such as school-run or sports.

Your duties will include:

·         Contacting (potential) clients through outbound calls

·         Documenting information, building a client database

·         Building a rapport and positive working relationships

·         Locating business potential

·         Working to targets for calls and lead generation
