Business Development / Sales Trainee

About the Role

We are looking for an ambitious, commercially driven Business Development / Sales Trainee to join our growing recruitment business, specialising in the manufacturing and engineering sectors.

This is not a traditional recruitment consultant role. The position is purely focused on business development, sales and winning new clients.

Working within our unique business model, you will be responsible for identifying new business opportunities, engaging with prospective clients and developing relationships with companies across the manufacturing and engineering sectors. Your primary objective will be to open doors, generate opportunities and ultimately bring new clients into the business.

This is an ideal opportunity for someone who enjoys the sales process, is motivated by targets and enjoys speaking to decision-makers and building commercial relationships.

What You'll Be Doing

Identifying and researching new potential clients across the manufacturing and engineering sectors
Proactively generating new business opportunities through outbound calls, email, LinkedIn and other channels
Speaking with business owners, hiring managers and senior decision-makers
Qualifying prospects and understanding their recruitment requirements
Building and maintaining a strong pipeline of prospective clients
Booking meetings and developing opportunities from initial contact through to conversion
Developing long-term commercial relationships with new clients
Maintaining accurate records of activity, prospects and opportunities
Consistently working towards and exceeding agreed sales and business development targets
Working closely with the wider recruitment team to ensure new opportunities are effectively converted and delivered

What We're Looking For

We are looking for someone who already has previous sales or business development experience (ideally within the recruitment sector) who is looking to develop their career within a highly commercial environment.

You'll ideally have:

Previous experience in a sales or business development related role
Recruitment experience preferably not essential
Excellent communication and relationship-building skills
A proactive, persistent and resilient approach to sales
The ability to identify opportunities and engage with decision-makers
A strong commercial mindset
The motivation to work towards targets and measurable results
Good organisational skills and the ability

Proactive Global is committed to equality in the workplace and is an equal opportunity employer.
