Internal Sales Executive - #2178538

Internal Sales & Account Development Executive

Leeds City Centre | £26,000–£28,000 Basic + £10,000 OTE Commission (Uncapped) A fantastic opportunity for a confident, commercially minded salesperson to develop their career within the luxury interiors sector. Aaron Wallis Sales Recruitment is working with an established, highly regarded business supplying premium products to interior designers, specialist retailers and trade customers across the UK and internationally.

We're looking for an energetic, proactive and naturally engaging Internal Sales & Account Development Executive to join their Leeds-based team. This is a genuine sales role, not an administrative or customer service position. You'll spend your time developing customer relationships, identifying opportunities and generating revenue through proactive telephone sales. For the right person, there's also a clear opportunity to progress into field sales, attending trade shows and potentially visiting customers internationally.

The Role

You'll take ownership of a portfolio of existing customers alongside developing new business opportunities.

Your responsibilities will include:

• Making regular outbound calls to existing, dormant and prospective customers.
• Building relationships with trade customers and identifying opportunities to grow accounts.
• Proactively developing new business and introducing customers to relevant products.
• Following up enquiries, quotations and potential sales opportunities.
• Supporting the onboarding and development of new customer accounts.
• Identifying opportunities to increase customer spend and encourage repeat business.
• Maintaining accurate CRM records and managing your sales pipeline.
• Working towards agreed sales targets and earning uncapped commission.
• Collaborating with colleagues across sales, marketing and customer service.

About You

We're looking for someone who genuinely enjoys sales and has the confidence and personality to build relationships over the telephone.

You'll ideally bring:

• Experience in telephone sales, internal sales, account management or business development.
• A proven ability to make outbound calls and generate sales opportunities.
• A confident, engaging and professional telephone manner.
• Strong relationship-building and communication skills.
• Commercial awareness and the ability to identify opportunities.
• A proactive, self-motivated approach and the confidence to work independently.
• Experience working towards targets and managing your own workload.
• Excellent organisation, follow-up and attention to detail.
• A genuine desire to learn, develop and progress your career.

Previous experience within interiors, design or luxury products would be an advantage, but it's certainly not essential. We're much more interested in finding someone with the right sales ability, attitude and personality.

What's on Offer?

• £26,000–£28,000 basic salary, depending on experience.
• Circa £10,000 additional annual commission at target performance, with uncapped earning potential.
• Quarterly commission payments.
• Monday to Friday, office-based in Leeds city centre.
• The opportunity to work with a well-established, respected business.
• Full product and industry training.
• Genuine career progression into field sales and potentially international customer visits.
• A supportive, collaborative working environment.

Why Apply?

This is an excellent opportunity for someone who's already developed a solid foundation in sales and is ready to take the next step.

You'll have an established customer base to work with, plenty of opportunity to generate new business and the chance to build a long-term career in an interesting, premium market.

If you're confident on the phone, enjoy developing relationships and want to be rewarded for your results, we'd love to hear from you.
