About the Role:
This role is a highly dynamic Sales Representative and Administrator position – liaising with customers to close key sales, resolving customer queries, and following up on sales administrative duties such as raising invoices.
The vast majority of our sales are online or over the telephone – with a very minimal but occasional in-person sale. There will also be general administrative duties to assist staff in other departments.
You will be working from an office but will need to be comfortable occasionally entering our warehouse - as some queries require you to view the products which are located in the warehouse. We would estimate about 2-3% of your time to be spent in the warehouse.
You will also be part of our front-of-house team, so you will need to be comfortable answering the door to couriers, etc.
Training and Development:
We sell predominantly used laboratory equipment, but we do not expect you to have any prior knowledge of lab equipment.
About You:
We are looking for a hard-working and committed individual who can think on their feet and respond well to this dynamic sales position.
To fulfil the role, you must have exceptional IT skills and be comfortable using a computer for the vast majority of your day. You must also be a people-person and highly motivated, keen to chase up potential sales leads. Previous experience in a sales-related role is desirable.
Candidates must demonstrate a minimum typing speed of 55 words per minute with high accuracy. This will be assessed during the interview.
It is important that you feel comfortable both working under direct supervision to meet targets, as well as self-motivating yourself when working independently.
Other Considerations:
The position is strictly non-smoking only.
