The Role

DEKRA has an exciting opportunity for a motivated sales professional looking to develop their career in a true end-to-end sales role.

This is not a traditional SDR or order-taking position you’ll be responsible for creating and converting your own opportunities, managing your pipeline, and developing your commercial capability within a structured and supportive sales environment.

What’s in it for you:

• A true end-to-end sales role with ownership of your pipeline and results
• Clear targets, performance bonus, and visibility of success
• A balanced role combining inbound enquiries with proactive prospecting
• Opportunity to develop your sales capability in a technical, consultative environment
• Exposure across multiple safety-focused business areas
• Strong progression opportunities within a growing commercial function

Duties of the Role:

• Proactively prospect into target accounts using phone-first and digital outreach
• Follow up inbound enquiries and marketing-generated leads, converting them into opportunities
• Reactivate dormant and lapsed accounts, identifying new commercial potential
• Manage and close smaller, transactional opportunities end-to-end
• Qualify and escalate larger or more complex opportunities to senior sales colleagues
• Maintain consistent follow-up across all opportunities to drive pipeline momentum
• Accurately update CRM systems to ensure visibility of pipeline, activity, and progress
• Work closely with Sales Managers and Sector Leads to progress and hand over opportunities
• Share customer insights and market intelligence with the wider sales team

Key Attributes of the Ideal Candidate:

• Previous experience in a sales, BDR, SDR or customer-facing commercial role
• Confident communicating via phone and digital channels
• Driven, proactive, and motivated to develop a career in sales
• Strong organisational skills with the ability to manage multiple opportunities
• Commercial awareness with a focus on results and performance
• Resilient with a positive, high-energy approach
• Background of technical knowledge, particularly of chemistry or chemical engineering would be a significant benefit.

What Success Looks Like:

• Comfortable leading sales conversations across the full sales cycle
• Consistent and disciplined in follow-up activity
• Able to manage high volumes of activity without compromising quality
• Understands when to close independently and when to escalate
• Takes ownership of pipeline, performance, and personal development

Benefits:

• Competitive salary and bonus structure
• Career development and progression opportunities
• Collaborative and supportive team environment
• Exposure to a global, industry-leading organisation
