Start your sales career with a growing environmental business.
Are you ambitious, confident and keen to build a career that makes a practical difference?
Hamptons Group is looking for a Trainee Sales Executive to join our expanding waste management and recycling team.
You don’t need previous sales experience. We’ll give you full training, ongoing support and plenty of hands-on experience as you learn how to help businesses reduce waste, recycle more and operate more sustainably.
This is an entry-level role with real responsibility, achievable targets and clear opportunities to progress into Sales Executive and Account Management positions.
What you’ll be doing
You’ll work with businesses from a wide range of industries, helping them find more efficient and environmentally responsible ways to manage their waste.
Your role will include:
- Finding new business opportunities through phone calls, emails and networking
- Speaking to potential customers and building strong commercial relationships
- Learning how to assess a customer’s waste and recycling requirements
- Recommending suitable services and practical waste solutions
- Preparing quotations for services including skip hire, waste collections and site clearance
- Supporting the wider sales team with administration
- Keeping customer information and sales activity up to date on our CRM system
- Working towards realistic sales targets and KPIs
What we’re looking for
We’re more interested in your attitude and potential than a long list of previous jobs.
You’ll ideally be:
- A confident communicator with a friendly, professional phone manner
- Motivated, ambitious and willing to learn
- Positive, organised and comfortable working towards targets
- Interested in recycling, sustainability and environmental issues
- Confident using computers, with some knowledge of Microsoft Office
- Able to manage your time and keep accurate records
- In possession of a full UK driving licence
Previous experience in an office, administration, customer service or sales role would be useful, but it isn’t essential.
What we offer
- A competitive basic salary
- Commission and bonus opportunities
- Full training and ongoing mentoring
- A supportive and friendly team environment
- Hands-on experience in a fast-growing industry
- Clear progression into Sales Executive and Account Management roles
- Opportunities to develop your commercial, communication and industry knowledge
- The chance to build a career in a business focused on recycling and sustainability
