Reporting directly to the Managing Director and sitting on the board, the Sales Director will be tasked with sales strategy, driving revenue, account retention and management of the sales staff across Europe. Currently there are three sales staff in each of the hubs - the UK, Belgium and Poland. Although the expectation is for the role to be primarily client facing, there is a definite need to cultivate and push relationships internally - specifically with the operations team who execute the solutions sold. In order to do this the SD will be expected to travel fairly extensively to visit stakeholders in other offices, combining this with client visits where possible. Other responsibilities will include:-

• Working with members of the board on budgeting and planning and presenting sales results on a periodic basis
• Creating and implementing strategic sales and marketing plans that align with business objectives
• Developing an operating budget for the sales division
• Forging positive long-lasting relationships with key clients to understand their business needs and objectives
• Negotiating agreements for contracts with customers to ensure a commercial outcome
• Effectively communicating the value proposition through proposals and presentations
• Serving as a business representative at major industry events, conferences, trade shows, and exhibitions
• Identifying valuable and viable emerging markets to target
• Meeting with the sales managers on a monthly basis to assess company performance against KPIs
• Full responsibility of all sales compliance processes across the business ensuring company and statutory standards and laws are being adhered to at all times
