Higson Edwards Steel stock is one of the North West's leading independent steel stockholders. Since 1983, we've built our reputation on exceptional customer service, fast turnaround times and long-term customer relationships.

As our business continues to grow, we're looking for an ambitious Sales Executive to join our team.

No previous steel industry experience is required. Full product training will be provided. We're looking for someone with excellent communication skills, a positive attitude and the ambition to build a successful long-term career in sales.

Working within our busy sales team, you'll be responsible for managing customer enquiries, building relationships with existing customers and helping to develop new business opportunities.

No two days are the same. You'll work closely with customers, suppliers and colleagues to ensure orders are handled efficiently while delivering the outstanding service that Higson Edwards is known for.

• Build and maintain strong, long-term relationships with customers.
• Prepare quotations, follow up opportunities and convert enquiries into orders.
• Identify opportunities to grow existing accounts while developing new business.
• Handle customer enquiries by telephone and email.
• Work closely with our purchasing and warehouse teams to ensure excellent customer service.
• Keep customer records and quotations up to date using our internal systems.
• Learn our product range and provide customers with the best solutions for their requirements.
• Deliver a professional, friendly and efficient service on every interaction.

We're looking for someone who is motivated, organised and enjoys building relationships. Personality, attitude and a willingness to learn are more important to us than previous steel industry experience.

You'll ideally have:

• Previous experience in sales, customer service or a commercial office environment.
• Excellent communication and relationship-building skills.
• Confidence speaking with customers over the phone and by email.
• Strong organisational skills and attention to detail.
• Good IT skills and the ability to learn new systems.
• A proactive approach with a willingness to learn.
• A driven, ambitious mindset with a desire to develop your career.

• Competitive salary of £30,000–£34,000, depending on experience.
• Monthly performance bonus.
• Full product and industry training.
• Clear opportunities for career progression within a growing business.
• Company pension.
• Free on-site parking.
• Friendly, supportive team environment.
• The opportunity to build a long-term career with an ambitious, growing independent business.

If you're looking to join a company where hard work is recognised, training is provided and there are genuine opportunities to develop your career, we'd love to hear from you.
