Are you a deal‑maker with a hunter’s instinct? Do you love the thrill of a fast‑paced trade and want a role where your earnings reflect your hustle?

- Collaborating: Working within a supportive team to expand the business’s global footprint.
Qualifications
- Sales Mindset: Tenacious, motivated by money, and love closing a deal.
- Communication Skills: Confident, professional, and persuasive in both written and verbal styles.
- Self‑Starters: Highly organised and able to multi‑task and prioritise in a fast‑moving environment.
- Adaptability: Eager to learn the technical side of the electronics industry—full training is provided!
- Experience: Previous sales or electronics experience is valuable, but attitude and drive are paramount.
Benefits
- Competitive Earnings: £27,000 – £32,000+ (uncapped potential).
- Work‑Life Balance: Early finish Fridays and a professional, friendly, and modern environment.
- Hybrid Perks: Option to work from home 2 days a week (following successful training/discretion).
