Bring Your Competitive Mindset into Sales
If you're competitive, goal-driven and always looking for ways to improve, you already have many of the qualities that make a strong sales professional.
We're looking for a Sports Sales Executive to join our growing team in Chelmsford. This opportunity is ideal for individuals with a sports-minded mentality who enjoy working with people, performing under pressure and being part of a team focused on achieving results.
You don't need previous sales experience. We're looking for drive, resilience, coachability and the motivation to succeed.
About Us
We're a growing sales and marketing company based in Chelmsford, partnering with nationally recognised brands across a variety of sectors.
We specialise in face-to-face customer acquisition and brand representation, helping our clients reach new audiences, grow their customer base and strengthen their market presence.
Our environment is competitive but collaborative. We believe individual performance matters, but the strongest results come from teams that learn, develop and push each other to improve.
What You'll Be Doing
As a Sports Sales Executive, you'll work on live client campaigns while developing practical skills across sales, communication and customer acquisition.
You'll be responsible for:
- Representing nationally recognised brands across sales campaigns
- Engaging with customers and building genuine rapport
- Understanding customer needs and communicating products and services effectively
- Developing your sales, negotiation and closing skills
- Learning the psychology behind customer behaviour and buying decisions
- Working towards individual and team performance goals
- Tracking your results and identifying opportunities to improve
- Contributing to a positive, competitive and high-performing team environment
Like sport, success in sales comes down to preparation, consistency, performance and the ability to keep improving.
Why a Sports-Minded Approach?
You don't need to be a professional athlete or even currently play a sport.
We're interested in the mindset behind it:
Discipline. Resilience. Coachability. Teamwork. Competitiveness.
We value people who set goals, respond positively to feedback and don't lose focus when something doesn't go their way.
You'll receive regular coaching and practical training, giving you the opportunity to continuously sharpen your skills and improve your performance.
Performance Creates Progression
We believe strong performance should create new opportunities.
As you develop your sales ability and commercial understanding, you'll have opportunities to take on greater responsibility, support new team members and develop skills across coaching, leadership, business development and campaign management.
Progression is based on your performance, attitude, consistency and ability to develop, rather than simply how long you've been with the business.
The Candidate
You'll be a strong fit if you're:
- Competitive and motivated by achieving goals
- Confident and comfortable communicating with people
- Resilient and able to bounce back from setbacks
- Coachable and willing to act on feedback
- Self-motivated with a strong work ethic
- A team player who takes ownership of their own performance
- Ambitious and motivated by progression
- Comfortable in a fast-paced, results-driven environment
Experience in sport, fitness, sales, retail, hospitality or customer service can be beneficial, but isn't essential.
What You'll Receive
- Full sales and product training
- One-to-one coaching and mentoring
- Performance-based progression
- Weekly sales, leadership and business development workshops
- Practical experience working on live client campaigns
- Networking opportunities and industry conferences
- Team socials and company events
- Business development trips
- National and international travel opportunities
- A competitive, collaborative and development-focused environment
