About the Role
The Role
GAP Lifting Hire & Sales offers one of the largest ranges of lifting equipment and accessories in the industry. From small shackles and slings to material lifts and aluminium gantries, the division has everything our customers need for lifting any size of load.
Reporting directly to the Regional Operations Manager, the Technical Sales Representative (TSR) will be responsible for maximising Lifting hire revenue opportunities from existing major account customers and winning new business. This will include delivering sales presentations to our major account customers at a senior management level and attending depot/customer trade days to promote our product offering.
The TSR will also work with various stakeholders across the GAP Group network, including Regional Sales Managers and their sales teams, to ensure proactive promotion of hire opportunities for Lifting equipment within their existing customer base.
Please note this position will be covering our Lifting Central region, maximising revenue for our Nottingham/Peterborough/Sheffield/Birmingham depots and so the successful candidate will ideally be based in the Midlands. You will ideally come from a Lifting background; however, we would consider candidates with any form of solution sales-based experience (i.e., hoists, powered access, survey, or other).
