Job Description
Junior Sales Executive / Trainee Sales Account Manager
Position: Junior Sales Executive (with a pathway to Sales Manager)
Location: UK wide - field‑based role covering clients across the country (frequent travel required)
Type: Permanent, Full‑time
Salary: Up to £50,000 + Vehicle
Our client specialises in designing, supplying, and installing frameless glass balcony systems (balconies, balustrades, Juliet‑balconies, glass railings, etc.) for residential and commercial properties. The frameless systems are built with toughened or laminated safety glass and high-quality fixings, providing modern aesthetic appeal, unobstructed views, safety compliance, and minimal maintenance for our clients.
As our client expands, we're seeking a motivated junior‑sales person to join the team, someone ambitious to grow into a senior or manager role as they prove themselves.
What the Role Involves
Identify and engage potential new clients across the UK, developers, contractors, architects, property managers, builders, renovators, homeowners, etc.
Build and maintain relationships with existing clients, understanding their needs, offering appropriate frameless balcony/glass solutions, following up on enquiries, and ensuring client satisfaction.
Generate new business via proactive outreach: cold‑calling, emailing, networking, attending industry events, site visits, and meetings.
Prepare and present quotations, proposals, and product/service packages tailored to client requirements (balcony size, glass type, fixings, installation, compliance).
Work with internal teams (design, technical, installation) to ensure accurate project specs and smooth handover from sale to installation.
Visit client sites when required, measure, survey, discuss options, inspect existing structures - sometimes personally or coordinate with technical team.
Who We're Looking For - Person Specification
Essential attributes:
Driven, ambitious, and target‑oriented, eager to learn and progress into a management/senior role over time
Passionate and enthusiastic about sales, building relationships, and representing a company/brand with professionalism and energy.
Excellent communication and interpersonal skills, confident on phone, email, and in-person; able to build rapport and influence decision‑makers (contractors, developers, homeowners).
Good organisational and time‑management skills, able to juggle multiple clients, follow-ups, travel, and admin while staying on top of paperwork and deadlines.
Resilient and self-motivated, capable of working independently, dealing with rejections or challenging clients, and pushing for results.
Valid UK driving licence and willingness to travel regularly nationwide to meet clients, conduct site visits, or attend industry events.
Desirable (but not essential) experience/skills:
Any prior sales experience - B2B or B2C - in the construction industry, showing negotiation, targets or client management.
Some exposure to construction, glazing, renovation, property development, architecture, or building materials - helpful but not mandatory.
Basic understanding of safety/glazing regulations or willingness to learn them.
Ability to read basic technical drawings or measure up site dimensions (helpful for quoting balconies/ balustrades).
What They Offer
Competitive base salary + performance-based commission/bonus structure (reflecting individual & company success) - rewarding high performers.
On‑the-job training and support: product knowledge, technical training about glazing & balcony systems, customer handling & sales training, guidance towards more senior roles.
Career progression: opportunity for high‑performing junior sales execs to grow quickly into account management or sales manager roles, taking on responsibility for larger clients/territories.
Travel support: company mileage allowance or vehicle / travel expenses covered (since role requires UK‑wide travel).
Flexible working: balance between office/home-based admin/quote work and client‑facing field visits & site meetings.
Why This Role Matters / What's In It For You
This is an excellent opportunity for a hungry, ambitious individual looking to build a long-term career in sales within the construction/glazing industry. You will get exposure to real projects, liaise with developers, contractors and homeowners, learn technical and commercial aspects of frameless glass balconies, and with performance grow into a senior or manager‑level position.
If you enjoy meeting clients, building relationships, learning a specialised product, and working across the UK, this role could be a great stepping stone for your sales career.
