Working in Sales in the West Midlands

A sales career is open to graduates from almost any discipline since the core competencies revolve around your key skills such as communication , negotiation and organisation as well as strong drive and self motivation. Graduates working in sales will be expected to conduct a range of tasks which might include sales admin support, identifying and calling potential customers to discuss their needs and to find sales leads, and Account Management, making sure existing customer relationships are maintained and developed. Sales roles can often be a great lead into other careers in general management, sales management, customer service and marketing.
