Job Description

The Senior Sales Development Representative will be responsible for identifying, developing, and converting new business opportunities while also nurturing and growing existing customer accounts. This role is key to driving commercial growth across a wide and established customer base, with a strong focus on relationship building and account development rather than purely cold acquisition.

Why Apply?

This role offers the chance to join a growing business where your input genuinely shapes commercial success and customer relationships.

As a Senior Sales Development Representative, you will be joining a collaborative team environment where ideas are valued, and progression is actively supported rather than promised.

If you are a motivated, autonomous individual seeking real impact, this is an excellent opportunity to develop your career within a forward‑thinking manufacturing business.
