The Opportunity

This is a pure new business, field sales role within a globally recognised organisation operating at scale. If you thrive on opening doors, winning new clients and building your own pipeline, this role puts you right at the sharp end of growth.

You’ll take ownership of a defined London territory, spending your time face-to-face with potential customers, identifying opportunities, and converting prospects into long-term commercial partnerships.

This is a traditional, high-energy field sales position with clear targets, strong support, and excellent long-term progression – the business promotes almost all senior sales leaders internally.

Proactively hunting for new business within your assigned territory

Identifying, qualifying and converting prospects into long-term customers

Managing your own sales pipeline from first contact through to close

Developing tailored commercial solutions based on customer needs

Hitting and exceeding individual sales targets

Working closely with internal teams to ensure smooth onboarding and delivery

Representing a trusted, market-leading brand in face-to-face meetings

What We’re Looking For

1–2+ years’ experience in B2B sales, ideally field-based or service-led

A strong new business mindset with confidence in prospecting and closing

Resilient, self-motivated and comfortable working autonomously

Excellent communication and presentation skills

Commercially aware with a structured approach to territory planning

Comfortable working with targets, data and reporting tools

Logistics, freight or complex service experience is beneficial but not essential

What’s In It For You

Competitive base salary plus performance-related commission

Company car or car allowance

Clear, structured career progression – senior sales roles filled internally

Strong onboarding, ongoing training and development

Generous holiday allowance that increases with service

Pension scheme, life assurance, enhanced family policies

Access to wellbeing support, EAP and voluntary benefits

Discounts across retail, leisure, gym memberships and more

Interview Process

Stage 1: 30-minute video interview

Stage 2: Assessment centre or presentation-style face-to-face interview

Important Information – Please Read

Due to the nature of the business, all successful candidates must pass a full 5-year vetting process, including a criminal record check. Some roles may also require a Counter Terrorism Check (CTC).

Ready to Build a Career in High-Impact Sales?

This is an ideal opportunity for ambitious sales professionals who want autonomy, responsibility and a genuine pathway into senior roles – all while working for a globally established organisation.

Apply now to take the next step in your field sales career.
