The Role
In a nutshell our client provides contract hire and other fleet related services to businesses, so you will need a proven ability to find and win customers through lead generation, business networking, social media, engagement by telephone, on-line meetings and face to face meetings.
Utopia would be that you already have a robust business customer base that knows you, likes you, and will follow you to help give you a great start.
How much you earn is down to you and our client is offering a generous percentage of revenue generated in addition to salary.
About You
Our most important requirement is that you are honest with yourself and honest with our client.
You may be working for a brokerage, or a contract hire provider, and frustrated at the lack of tools at your fingertips or at the restrictions imposed by limited funding options. You’re probably telling yourself over and over that you could be more successful if you had more options for customers.
You will be the sort of person that loves to help others, who is consultative, disciplined and compliant. You will have excellent communication skills you’ll never tell a customer what they want to hear. You only ever tell the truth and manage expectations properly.
You will be somebody who is naturally curious. Somebody who is unafraid to put hard yards into success and definitely somebody who loves the rewards that brings.
Skills and experience you will need to be considered:
- Experience and success selling vehicles to end user UK fleets (not to brokers or leasing companies)
- A tenacious can-do attitude driven by a powerful WHY
- Great diary and time management
- The acumen required to understand a customers’ problems and challenges and relate those to solutions you can provide
- The ability and discipline required to find and manage your sales opportunities
- The ability to generate a solid pipeline of properly qualified prospects
- The discipline to record activity and forecast your business accurately
- The acumen to know when to “do a deal” and when to walk away
- The ability to close business
- Customer management skills that build solid relationships, for the customer, for our client and for you
