Sales Executive job at Northampton Full Time NEW

Overview

McCarthy Hire is a growing equipment hire business specialising in flexible industrial solutions, including evaporative cooling, dust and fume extraction, and industrial vacuum hire. We’re looking for a motivated and results-driven Sales Executive to help us build on our early momentum and grow our customer base across the UK.

This is a genuine opportunity to make your mark in a business that’s still finding its feet – the kind of role where your efforts are visible, and your results matter. If you’re self-motivated, commercially minded, and comfortable picking up the phone, we’d like to hear from you.

Duties

• Identify and pursue new business opportunities through outbound prospecting, networking, and lead follow-up.
• Build and develop relationships with new and existing clients, understanding their requirements and matching them to the right hire solutions.
• Manage a pipeline of leads and opportunities using our CRM, keeping records accurate and activity levels consistent.
• Conduct product introductions and solution-based conversations with prospective clients, by phone, email, and in person where appropriate.
• Collaborate with the wider team on campaigns and initiatives to drive enquiries and brand awareness.
• Negotiate and close hire agreements, ensuring a smooth handover to operations.
• Provide a responsive and professional experience for customers at every stage of the sales process.

Skills and Experience

• Experience in a B2B sales or account development role, with a track record of hitting targets.
• Confident and credible communicator, comfortable leading conversations at all levels.
• Self-starter who can manage their own day and maintain consistent activity without close supervision.
• Good working knowledge of CRM systems and standard MS Office applications.
• Highly organised with strong attention to follow-up and pipeline discipline.
• Comfortable working in a small, fast-moving business.
• Motivated by earning potential, with a desire to maximise commission through consistent performance.
