- Description
We are recruiting for an Internal Account Manager with a demonstrable interest in Technology to work in an office-based role contacting clients and making new business calls to help generate appointments for the external Business Development Managers, generate new sales leads and close and negotiate opportunities.
At this point in the company's growth the role is predominantly new business whereby you will be responsible, working with the external Business Development Manager, to develop your sales region. This will involve a lot of targeted cold calling, working on your own initiative and driving up call volumes and the number of new business meetings.
