We’re looking for a true new business hunter. Not an account manager. Not someone who waits for enquiries. This role is for someone who thrives on:
- Winning new customers
- Building pipeline from scratch
- Turning prospects into long-term, high-value accounts
We are an established industrial supplies business specialising in mechanical and automation, site safety and production consumables, with a strong reputation across Yorkshire. Now we’re investing in growth — and this role will be key to delivering our aggressive targets in the fast changing industrial landscape.
The Role
You’ll be responsible for generating and winning brand new business across:
- Manufacturing
- Food & beverage production
- Distribution & warehousing
- Recycling & aggregates
Operating within a defined local territory, you’ll:
- Identify and target high-potential industrial companies
- Proactively prospect via calls, email, LinkedIn and site visits
- Secure meetings with decision‑makers (operations, procurement, engineering)
- Deliver tailored proposals focused on cost, service and reliability
- Convert opportunities into profitable, long‑term accounts
What We’re Looking For
You’ll likely be:
- A proven B2B salesperson with a strong track record in new business
- Comfortable with high levels of outbound activity
- Confident speaking to senior stakeholders
- Relentless, resilient and self‑motivated
Most importantly:
- You enjoy the chase
- You don’t rely on inbound leads
- You measure success by wins, not effort
Experience in industrial supplies, MRO or technical sales is advantageous — but mindset, behaviour & performance matters more.
What You’ll Get
- Competitive basic salary
- Uncapped commission structure (high reward for high performance)
- Autonomy to build and own your territory
- Development & training on a proven sales methodology
- Clear progression as we grow the team
Why Join Us?
- Established business with strong operational support
- Opportunity to make a visible impact quickly
- No micromanagement — results matter
Apply if you’re a driven new business salesperson who wants to be rewarded for what you bring in — we want to hear from you. Send your CV and a short note outlining your biggest new business win.
