There will be a target of £1m per annum of new business plus retention. The basic tasks of the role will be to; Oversee the business development function Manage the existing team (ensure that everyone is utilised, even during quiet periods); grow the team as required Create/Maintain/Pre qualify top 3 to 500 list of targets Oversee the whole commission structure for the business e.g. Motivate the CMs/CRMs to upsell Be responsible for social media and website marketing Head the bid team/process to ensure early responses Keep an eye on existing customers/look for opportunities For this role candidates must have extensive sales experience in the commercial cleaning sector (ideally with experience of the housing association sector or the tender process for public sector bids), be motivated and possess the ability to set up and manage a sales department. The role holder will be working regularly from the company s head office (especially in the first six months), so candidates must reside within a distance that a commute there three days a week is tenable.
