Skills & Experience

Candidates are sought with some experience of field sales, ideally within the same sector although this is not essential. Experience across the hospitality sector would also be highly desirable. The ability to self manage your time is important as is the ability to always put the needs of the customer first. Being able to add value to customers is essential, and you must be able to demonstrate how you have added value across multiple customers; both existing and new business. Basic Microsoft Office skills are required, in particular Excel. A tenacious, determined and customer focused outlook is what will serve candidates well in this process.

This is a field-based role that will involve travel throughout the North region; therefore, you must be a self starter with the ability to effectively and efficiently plan your own diary.
