You'll play a key part in driving the business from £20 million to £30 million turnover, working closely with Directors, and collaborating across departments to deliver outstanding results.

* Working closely with marketing and procurement to align strategies.

* Providing clear, data-driven reporting and sales forecasts to leadership.

* Supporting and inspiring a team culture built on trust, performance, and collaboration.

* Staying engaged in front-line sales activity - this is not a desk-only role.

* Strong B2B background with a demonstrable track record of success.

* Confident leader with a passion for coaching and team development.

* Results-driven, commercially minded, and highly organised.

* Proficiency in Microsoft Office, CRM tools/HubSpot and sales performance metrics.
