Sales Executive

Salary: Competitive
Contract: Full-time, permanent
Working hours: 37.5 hours, Mon-Fri, 8am-4.30pm

Do you have the ambition, drive, and confidence to succeed in sales - especially when it comes to striking up conversations and turning them into opportunities? 

As one third of our close-knit sales team at Grundon Sand & Gravel, you will gain in-depth knowledge of our diverse product range - including path gravels, rockery stones and shingle. We supply everyone from golf courses and equestrian centres to landscapers and the general public. If you're ready to carve out a new career, we’re ready to invest in your future!

About the Sales Executive role
Our four quarries across Southern England supply both natural and recycled aggregates. As Sales Executive based at our Beenham office in Berkshire, you will cold-call new customers and manage the whole life cycle of orders, from initial enquiry through to ensuring material delivery on site and after-sales care. 

The job also involves booking and attending your own appointments to visit clients face-to-face in our current London and home counties operating area (we have aspirations to extend our operations to other areas within the UK), but first things first, you'll receive thorough training. 

What we're looking for in our Sales Executive
No industry knowledge is needed, but we do want enthusiasm, a persuasive personality and good time-management skills. A full driving licence is essential too. 

Why Grundon – and what’s in it for you
We believe in nurturing talent and offer plenty of training and professional development opportunities. Many of our star sales team started as trainees and have worked their way up – like to join them?

You can expect a perks and benefits package that includes:

Company car 
Discretionary company bonuses
 Pension scheme (you contribute 5% of pay, Grundon matches this) with life insurance cover 
30 days’ annual leave (inclusive of 8 bank holidays), which will increase with service, plus the option to buy up to 5 extra days' holiday
