The Candidate

• We are ideally looking for someone with 3-5 years’ experience, clothing is not essential, but a “passion for fashion/clothing” would be good as you will need to work closely with the design and product development team.   
• The market is quite niche, so you need to have experience in B2B sales, not B2C.   
• You need to be able to command a room, think on your feet and be very good at engaging and opening doors, as well as closing deals.  The sales cycle is very long – from tender to closing can take up to a year. 
• Articulate and presentable with a strong work ethic and upbeat attitude
• Computer literate with particular proficiency in Excel and Powerpoint
• You’re bright and enthusiastic with great attention to detail and a real ‘can-do’ attitude, driven to achieve for yourself and the company

On offer to the successful candidate is an attractive basic salary and benefits, giving you the ability to work with a dynamic, fast-growing company where the career opportunities are inexhaustible.
