About us
Chorley Concrete is a family-run business and one of the North West's largest independent suppliers of volumetric concrete. We've built our name on quality, reliability and looking after our customers, and we're proud to be one of the highest-rated and most-reviewed concrete suppliers in the area, with over 157 five-star reviews and counting (nearly 200 across the group). That reputation, along with our continued expansion, means we're now looking for an Internal Sales Representative to join our office team and help drive the next stage of our growth.
The role
This is a brand-new, office-based role at our Appley Bridge depot, working closely with the sales team. You'll be the first point of contact for many of our customers, handling incoming enquiries and making outbound calls to win and grow business. It's a busy, varied role that would suit someone who enjoys talking to people, thrives on hitting targets and wants to build a career in sales.
Full training will be given on all our systems, so you don't need to know the concrete trade to apply. If you've got the right attitude, we'll teach you the rest.
What you'll be doing
- Answering inbound calls and enquiries, quoting and converting them into orders
- Making outbound calls to new and existing customers to generate and follow up sales
- Building strong relationships with trade and domestic customers alike
- Processing orders accurately and coordinating with the operations team on scheduling
- Upselling additional products and services where they genuinely help the customer
- Keeping customer records and enquiries up to date on our systems
- Working to sales targets and contributing to the team's overall goals
What we're looking for
Essential:
- A positive, proactive, can-do attitude
- Confident and professional telephone manner
- Strong communication skills and the ability to build rapport quickly
- Well organised, accurate and able to juggle several jobs at once
- Comfortable working to targets in a busy environment
- Reliable and a good team player
A big plus (but not essential):
- Previous sales experience
- Trade counter or builders' merchant experience
- Knowledge of the construction or concrete industry
- Experience of outbound / telesales
What we offer
- Competitive salary with a bonus/commission structure
- Full training on our products and systems
- Monday to Friday hours, 8am–5pm – no weekends
- A genuine opportunity to progress for the right person
- A friendly, supportive, family-run team
- Free on-site parking
Room to grow: this role is office based to start, but for the right person there's real scope to progress within the sales team as the business grows.
