An ambitious and fast-growing business specialising in high-value alternative assets is looking for a relationship-driven Private Client Executive to join its expanding sales team.
This is an excellent opportunity for a commercially minded sales professional to join a growing business with access to a substantial database of warm leads, while also building and developing their own portfolio of high-net-worth clients. The successful candidate will manage the full sales cycle, from prospecting and relationship building through to consultative sales and long-term account management.
The role would suit someone who enjoys autonomy, thrives in a business development environment, and is motivated by uncapped earning potential while maintaining a genuinely client-first approach.
This role requires 4 days onsite in Edinburgh.
Key Responsibilities
- Build and develop relationships with high-net-worth individuals through a combination of warm leads, networking, referrals, and self-generated business.
- Manage the full sales process from initial engagement through to negotiation, objection handling, and closing.
- Deliver a consultative sales experience, educating clients on high-value physical assets and presenting tailored solutions aligned to their objectives.
- Grow and manage a portfolio of clients, identifying opportunities for repeat business, referrals, and long-term account growth.
- Maintain accurate CRM records, sales forecasts, and pipeline management.
- Work closely with internal teams to ensure an outstanding customer experience throughout the client journey.
- Ensure all client communications are accurate, compliant, and focused on building long-term trust.
