You'll be selling bespoke solutions that help businesses optimise procurement, inventory management, warehousing, fulfilment, distribution and service operations. You'll understand the commercial challenges organisations face around efficiency, resilience, cost control and customer service, positioning supply chain solutions as a strategic business advantage rather than simply an operational function.

- Identifying organisations with complex supply chain, logistics and operational requirements
- Building relationships with Supply Chain Directors, Operations Directors, Procurement Leaders, Commercial Directors and other senior decision-makers

- Managing the full sales cycle from prospecting through to commercial negotiation, contract award and customer handover
- Working closely with internal solution design and operational teams to develop customer-focused proposals
- Building a strong pipeline of qualified opportunities and developing long-term strategic customer partnerships
Ideal Background
- Experience selling one or more of the following:
- Supply chain solutions
- Contract logistics
- Logistics outsourcing
- Managed services
- Operational outsourcing
- Procurement solutions
- Inventory management
- Warehousing and fulfilment solutions
- Distribution and transport solutions
- End-to-end supply chain services
About You
- A genuine hunter with a passion for winning new business
- Demonstrable success in B2B solution sales
- Experience selling logistics, supply chain or outsourced operational services
- Commercially astute with strong consultative selling skills
- Comfortable opening doors, generating opportunities and building long-term client relationships
- Confident engaging senior operational and commercial stakeholders
- Self-motivated, resilient and driven by achieving ambitious sales targets
Why Apply?
This is an opportunity to join a growing, globally recognised supply chain business where you'll have the autonomy to build your own pipeline and sell genuinely value-adding solutions that make a measurable impact on customers' operations. You'll benefit from an uncapped commission structure, strong internal support and the opportunity to work on complex, consultative sales opportunities with some of the world's leading organisations. If you're a driven new business professional who enjoys opening doors, solving operational challenges and building long-term commercial partnerships, we'd love to hear from you.
