Sales & Business Development Lead (Electrical Wholesale)

Location: Hoddesdon Employment Type: Full-Time, Permanent Salary: From £32,000 + Profit Share + Benefits

Are you a proactive closer who thrives in a hands‑on, fast‑paced environment? A successful independent electrical wholesaler is looking for a driven Sales & Business Development Lead to join a tight-knit team and play a key role in accelerating growth.

This is not a passive desk job, you’ll be at the heart of the action, from managing high‑value accounts to shaping the company’s digital presence.

 

Key Responsibilities

  • Drive Growth: Generate new business through proactive internal quoting and external sales activity.

  • Build Relationships: Develop strong, long-term connections with local contractors and industrial clients.

  • Boost Digital Presence: Lead social media activity to promote products, offers, and updates.

  • Stay Market-Savvy: Monitor industry trends to keep stock, pricing, and promotions competitive.

  • Collaborate: Work closely with a small team to deliver a personalised service that stands out from larger chains.

 

What You’ll Bring

  • Sales Experience: Ideally within electrical wholesale, construction, or a related sector.

  • Strong Communication: Confident on the phone, on-site, and across digital platforms.

  • Digital Confidence: Comfortable using social media to drive engagement and brand awareness.

  • Self-Starter Attitude: Enjoys variety, autonomy, and the pace of a small-business environment.

 

Why This Role Stands Out

  • Competitive Salary: Starting from £32,000, depending on experience.

  • Profit Share: When the business succeeds, you share in the reward.

  • Real Influence: Your ideas and input will directly shape the company’s direction and growth.
