Hertfordshire Sales recruitment agency listing
Typically responsible for around two thirds of a company's income, sales operations play a key role in the commercial performance of UK businesses. Jobs in the sector will include sales director, business development manager, team leader and telesales, with the overall objective being to sell a service or product to potential customers. More than 35,000 Hertfordshire professionals work within a sales or customer service role and this equates to around 6% of the local labour market.
Specialist Hertfordshire sales recruitment agencies will have contributed to this level of employment as their local industry knowledge is often relied upon to address clients' permanent, contract or temporary jobs.
Salaries
Candidates looking to enter a sales position can usually expect a 9-5 job within an office environment, although large companies may choose to introduce a flexible work schedule that includes shift and part-time hours. Work conditions and salaries are largely dependent on the specific job role, although the average earnings for a Hertfordshire sales professional is around £25,000 - £30,000 per annum. Executive staff such as sales directors, can expect the highest salary at £75,000+, whereas telesales workers will usually earn £18,000 - £24,000. Jobs within Watford, Stevenage or Hemel Hempstead will usually offer the best job opportunities in Hertfordshire, although candidates may decide to commute to nearby London or Cambridgeshire.
Qualifications, entry requirements and key skills
Academic credentials aren't strictly necessary to enter a sales role, with a confident and charismatic personality often valued more by employers. While a degree isn't an entry barrier to the sales field, employers may favour graduates who hold a qualification in business, marketing or advertising. Personnel entering medical sales may also require a qualification in life sciences.
Recruiting dynamic and self-assured candidates can be challenging for sales employers and a local sales recruitment agency may help optimise the chances of making a successful hire. Hertfordshire recruitment consultants will have experience of recruiting within the local sales industry and will understand the skills needed for a candidate to thrive in the field.
