Full job description

The Line Marking Sales Executive is the commercial driver and line marking category growth owner for paint and line marking equipment sales. This role is both outward-facing and strategically grounded—focused on generating new business, developing existing accounts, and building a repeatable, high-frequency revenue stream through paint and associated equipment sales. Operating across sales, account management, and category strategy, the role bridges the gap between market demand and internal execution. It plays a critical role in identifying opportunities, shaping product development, refining pricing strategy, and ensuring the category evolves in line with customer needs and competitive pressures.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

New Business Development & Lead Generation

Proactively identify and target new opportunities across:

Schools, colleges, and universities
Local authorities and contractors
Groundskeepers and facility managers

Execute outbound sales activity including:

Cold outreach (phone, email, LinkedIn)
On-site prospecting and visits
Referrals and relationship-led introductions

Build and maintain a strong pipeline of qualified prospects.

Own the full top-of-funnel process from prospecting through to initial deal agreement.

Field Sales & Product Demonstration (When appropriate)

Travel to meet prospects and customers:

Site visits and facility walkthroughs
Grounds team requirements

Deliver hands-on product demonstrations including:

Line marking machines
Paint performance and application

Showcase clear value versus competitor products.

Drive conversion through practical, experience-led selling.

Account Management & Repeat Revenue Growth

Build strong, long-term relationships with customers to drive:

Repeat paint orders (core consumable revenue)
Cross-sell of category equipment and upgrades

Follow up on large inbound/online orders to:

Gather feedback
Secure repeat business
Identify upsell opportunities

Work closely with the inbound sales team to ensure seamless account handling and order processing.

Pipeline Ownership & Sales Integration

Maintain clear visibility of pipeline health and future demand.

Collaborate with inbound sales to ensure:

Smooth handover of opportunities where required
Alignment on pricing, stock, and delivery expectations

Stay involved in key accounts to support retention and growth.

Category Ownership & Commercial Performance

Take ownership of the line marking category performance, including:

Revenue growth
Margin performance
Repeat purchase rates

Monitor and analyse sales trends, identifying:

High-performing products
Underperforming areas
Seasonal demand patterns
Drive initiatives to improve category performance and scalability.

Market Intelligence & Competitive Analysis

Continuously monitor the market landscape, including:
Competitor products and pricing
Supplier positioning
Industry trends and innovations

Conduct “like-for-like” product comparisons to maintain competitiveness.

Identify pricing opportunities and risks within the category.

Act as the internal expert on the line marking market.

Product Development & Range Expansion

Identify gaps in the current product offering, including:

Paint formulations
Equipment features
Bundled solutions

Work closely with product development and buying teams to:

Launch new products
Improve existing ranges
Align offerings with customer needs

Contribute to building a more complete and competitive category range.

Cross-Functional Collaboration

Work closely with:

Inbound sales team

Support forecasting through accurate pipeline and demand insights.

WHAT YOU'LL BRING

Sales Expertise: Strong ability to sell in-person and convert.
Commercial Awareness: Deep understanding of pricing, margins, and repeat revenue models.
Category Thinking: Ability to take ownership of a product category, not just individual sales.
Relationship Management: Strong interpersonal skills with a focus on long-term value.
Market Awareness: Ability to analyse competitors and identify opportunities.
Self-Management: Comfortable working autonomously.

Role Positioning
