Internal Sales Executive - Trade & Technical Products in Weybridge

Internal Sales Executive – Trade & Technical Products

Account Management | New Business | Commercial Growth

Location: Weybridge, Surrey – Full-Time, Office-Based

Hours: Monday to Friday, 9:00am–5:30pm

A great opportunity for a commercially minded salesperson who enjoys products, people and growing business.

We are recruiting for a highly successful, established UK distributor supplying specialist products and materials into industries including construction, fabrication, signage, shopfitting, glazing and commercial interiors.

We're looking for someone who is confident, commercially switched on and enjoys understanding products, solving customer problems and spotting opportunities to increase sales.

This isn't simply an account management or customer service position. You'll be combining established customer relationships with proactive account development, new business generation and commercial decision-making.

You'll be joining an experienced team within a successful business offering stability, excellent products and genuine long‑term career opportunities.

The Role

You’ll be responsible for developing an established customer portfolio while identifying opportunities to increase business across existing, dormant and new accounts.

Your responsibilities will include:

• Managing and growing relationships with existing trade customers.
• Proactively identifying and securing new business opportunities.
• Re‑engaging customers who haven't purchased recently.
• Understanding customers' requirements and recommending appropriate products and materials.
• Preparing accurate quotations, handling pricing enquiries and converting opportunities into orders.
• Identifying upselling and cross‑selling opportunities.
• Working confidently with product specifications, measurements, quantities and pricing.
• Developing commercial relationships with customers across different industry sectors.
• Managing multiple enquiries, maintaining accurate CRM records and following opportunities through to completion.
• Working closely with colleagues in purchasing, warehousing and operations.

What Will Make You Successful?

We're particularly interested in people who combine strong interpersonal skills with commercial awareness, initiative and the ability to learn.

You’ll ideally bring:

• Experience in B2B internal sales, trade sales, account management or product‑led business development.
• A confident, professional approach to building customer relationships.
• Strong numerical ability and comfort working with quotations, quantities, prices and commercial information.
• The ability to understand technical products and their applications.
• A proactive approach to developing sales rather than simply responding to enquiries.
• Excellent organisation, attention to detail and the ability to manage competing priorities.
• Good IT skills and the ability to learn product and CRM systems.
• A positive, collaborative approach and an interest in building a long‑term career.

Your Background

Experience within building materials, builders' merchants, plastics, sheet materials, glazing, signage supplies, metal distribution, industrial products, fabrication or manufacturing‑related sales would be particularly relevant.

However, direct industry experience isn't essential. We’re equally interested in commercially capable salespeople from other product‑led environments who can demonstrate the ability to learn quickly, understand customer requirements and develop profitable business.

What's On Offer?

• Performance‑related bonus scheme
• Established customer accounts with genuine opportunities for growth
• Comprehensive product knowledge and training
• Long‑term career development within a highly successful UK business
• Monday‑to‑Friday working hours

Location and Working Arrangements

This is a full‑time, office‑based position in Weybridge, Surrey, working alongside the existing sales and operations team.

Interested?

If you're an ambitious internal salesperson who enjoys building customer relationships, understanding products and turning opportunities into profitable business, we'd be delighted to hear from you.
