The opportunity
We're working with an established, international IT solutions and reseller business that's growing its UK team in Manchester. This is a genuine ground-floor opportunity: an Inside Sales Representative role that's designed to grow into Account Management as the team scales. If you're doing sales support or internal sales today and want a clear path forward rather than a seat that stays still, this is built for you.
What you'll be doing
- Supporting Account Managers across the full sales cycle, from first enquiry to order fulfilment
- Preparing accurate, timely quotations in line with commercial guidelines
- Keeping the CRM accurate and up to date
- Tracking orders and proactively updating customers and colleagues
- Liaising with distributors, manufacturers and partners on pricing, availability and lead times
- Handling customer queries and resolving delivery and service issues
What we're looking for
- Experience in sales support, inside sales, or a customer-facing commercial role
- Genuinely strong attention to detail (this one matters)
- Confident communication, on the phone and in writing
- Well organised, able to juggle priorities in a fast-paced environment
- Salesforce (or similar CRM) experience
- A willingness to learn: the right attitude beats knowing everything on day one
Nice to have, not essential:
- A basic understanding of IT products and solutions
- Any exposure to regulated or government-facing sales environments
Worth knowing
The role is office-based in Manchester. Given the markets the business works in, the successful candidate should be comfortable undergoing security clearance (SC) in time. This isn't required to start.
Why apply
- A clear progression path into Account Management
- Join early and grow with a scaling UK business
- £35,000 base plus commission
