Project Sales Executive
Dartford / North Kent
£28,000–£40,000 depending on experience and industry contacts, plus commission and company bonus
Are you a confident, polished and commercially driven salesperson who knows how to turn opportunities into orders?
We are recruiting for an established and successful B2B organisation looking for a proactive Project Sales Executive to join its busy internal sales team. You’ll manage a portfolio of live opportunities, build relationships with key decision-makers and work alongside a field-based colleague to win new business.
This is not a high-volume, untargeted cold-calling role. You’ll be working with genuine project leads, developing long-term commercial relationships and following opportunities through from initial enquiry to confirmed order.
What you’ll be doing
- Managing a substantial portfolio of live and upcoming sales projects
- Identifying opportunities and speaking with relevant business contacts and decision-makers
- Building relationships with architects, specifiers, designers and other project stakeholders
- Securing high-quality appointments for a field-based sales colleague
- Following up quotations and converting opportunities into confirmed orders
- Developing new business within an allocated geographical area
- Keeping accurate, detailed records of every conversation and project
- Working closely with internal pricing, technical and customer service teams
- Delivering against individual and team sales targets
- Providing a professional, responsive service throughout the sales process
What we’re looking for
- A confident, credible and engaging communicator
- A proactive, resilient approach with the drive to achieve results
- Strong relationship-building and influencing skills
- Excellent organisation and attention to detail
- The ability to manage multiple projects, priorities and deadlines
- Comfortable working to sales targets, call activity and conversion measures
- A polished and professional manner when dealing with senior contacts
- Strong IT and CRM skills
- A genuine team player who is also happy to use their own initiative
Previous B2B sales or business development experience would be advantageous. Candidates seeking the top end of the salary range will need to demonstrate a strong track record in project or specification-led sales and bring an established network of architects, specifiers or other relevant industry contacts.
Why apply?
- Commission earned on every successful order
- Additional company performance bonus
- Genuine opportunities to progress within a growing organisation
- 25 days’ holiday plus bank holidays
- An additional day off for your birthday
- Christmas and New Year closure
- Generous company pension
- Flexible start and finish times
- Monday-to-Friday working
- Regular sales incentives and prizes
- Modern offices with free parking and excellent transport links
- Supportive, sociable working environment

This would suit an ambitious, well-presented sales professional who enjoys building relationships, taking ownership and seeing opportunities through to a successful conclusion.
