Why More Salespeople from competitors Are JoiningLess red tape, more selling. You won't spend your week chasing approvals. Our quoting system is slick, decision-makers are accessible, and our MD will look at non-standard terms when there's a good reason. One of our recent hires, who joined from a major OEM, says producing a quote, seeing a customer and getting terms approved is far easier here.
A service you won't have to apologise for. Too often in this industry, salespeople win a contract that the service team then can't deliver. Not here. We do proper maintenance visits of around 45 minutes, not a ten-minute box-tick. We make proactive recommendations, manage shutdowns properly and take every customer issue seriously. You'll never look foolish in front of a client because operations let you down.
A team, not a lone wolf. Big companies often leave their salespeople to fend for themselves. Here, the sales team works together and pulls in the same direction, with real support behind you.
Room to grow. As we scale toward £100m, the sales structure will grow with us, including future leadership roles. Lisa will coach and develop strong performers every step of the way.
Earnings that reward results. You'll get a competitive basic plus commission paid on every lift you bring on contract. The best-structured deals earn the most, and good salespeople can earn very well.
A Word from Lisa“I joined Liftec because it's an ambitious business with huge potential. It's fast-paced with a great team around you and everyone genuinely wants to help. I felt at home very quickly. We're independent, growing rapidly and there's a real opportunity for good salespeople to come in, make their mark and be part of what we're building.”
The OpportunityThis is a pure new business role. There's no inherited account book and no renewals. Your mission is to win new lift maintenance contracts across a patch with thousands of lifts in it.
