• Drive regional performance against KPIs, revenue targets and account strategies.
• Oversee forecasting, planning, reporting and long-term leadership development.
• Lead succession planning, recruitment and resource allocation across the southern region.
• Build credibility with customers at senior level, acting as a trusted point of escalation.
• Collaborate across departments to ensure national commercial plans are executed consistently.
About You
To excel in this Sales Director opportunity, you will bring:
• Significant senior-level B2B sales leadership experience.
• Proven experience managing managers in a high-performance, multi-region environment.
• Gravitas and presence when coaching senior leaders.
• Familiarity with the GROW coaching methodology or similar structured frameworks.
• Strong understanding of data-driven, consultative and narrative-led sales.
• Excellent communication, analytical and organisational skills.
• Ideally based from the Midlands downwards to effectively manage the southern team.
