This is an outstanding opportunity for an ambitious, goal-orientated sales person that is craving greater autonomy, higher rewards and more exciting career prospects.

We are part of the preferred supply chain for many household names and provide them with a unique level of service that many of our larger high street and independent agency competitors cannot provide.

• Supply Chain & Logistics
• Office Support
• MMCC (Marketing Media Communications Creatives)
• Sales
• Finance
• Manufacturing
• Engineering

The Opportunity:
We seek an individual that will be responsible for generating new service users, but also maintaining and expanding on existing relationships that have made Regional Recruitment the success it is today. This is an excellent opportunity to join one of the best-rated agencies within the Midlands, according to Google. This role offers the right individual full autonomy and the freedom to make decisions throughout the sales process, and of course will be given the full support of the Senior Management team to be a success within this role.

• Booking direct one-to-one meetings at customer's sites, to present bespoke recruitment solutions.
• Evaluate and lead strategic approach to new business development
