Afternoon!

We've recently had a role open up...Despite some firms cutting back as much as possible & having to reduce staff we are expanding at a superb rate & have just had the best 3 months we've ever had since the company started 5/6 years ago.

The firm itself offers a prestige product in the way of glass balustrading for developments both private/commercial. The days are largely spent on the phones to both private & trade.

The role itself would be very similar to mine where by you handle all incoming phone/email enquiries for our products & talk to private clients/architects/developers/builders/quantity surveyors/project managers & so on regarding there respective projects.

There is no "Sales Rep" type stuff in the way of travelling all over the country, you're simply based at the office, if clients are local, you're more than welcome to visit but it's not a necessity.

The firm itself is very small & you would be working with myself & 1 other on the sales side of things...We then have another 5 full time staff handling other roles.

Regarding salary, the role is aimed at someone starting out to an extent as the base salary starts at 16k during training...So if you're a quick learner, you can be done with training in about 1-2 months & then progress onto our bonus scheme which pays out every 3 months.

You MUST have past Sales environment experience. This is by no means a "pressured" role...Well it is for me. But my point is, this isn't one of those target based organisations where if you don't make a target 1 week you're out. It's very relaxed & we all work as a team & help each other out as the firm itself is originally a family business (not my family I hasten to add) & everyone is very close knit as a result.

Anyhoo...I need to get back to work now so if you do have any queries at all or would like to know more, drop me an email.

Thanks!
Umair

I wouldn't if I didn't have cars to fund hehe

But indeed...I'm 5 minutes away from your house probably. It's why I always kept mentioning spots of Caterhams around the area to you wink

If you lived closer you'd already have a Tiv! wink

Yeah my parents live off London Road, as you head out towards Felbridge.
Normally it's my dad's car and his mate that go off in tandem.

On a sidenote, the other car (the burgundy one with silver stripes) I've driven and it is mental.
The first and so far only time I've driven a car with comforably more than 400bhp/ton!! driving

You know where it is? scratchchin

Oh and yeah I will be sorting a new car.
Very nearly bought something a few weeks ago (just for a change) but my current insurer won't insure me on anything interesting.
Not worth cancelling as I'll have 4yrs NCB at the end of the year (which is worth more to me than a car change right this second!) and will then go to another insurer! smile

It was an A3 1.8T Sport 150bhp. I found one with one private owner and Audi ex-demo, relatively low mileage and all the options I wanted (I wanted leather, climate and ideally Bose 6 CD and heated seats) and looked a good buy.
I was really happy with my insurer... rolleyes

I'm surprised as in standard form they aren't the quickest of cars, but this is insurance so logic doesn't apply rolleyes

Well I had quotes of around £580 from other insurers, so I can't understand why my current one wouldn't insure at all.
I guess they only go for very low risk cover.
Stupid really!!
