About you You are established in business development within print, large format, graphics or a related sector. You know how to open doors, build trust and turn capability into contracts. You are doing well where you are, probably earning decent commission. But maybe you feel your company is stuck in its ways. Maybe the investment is not there, or the ambition has plateaued. You do not need a sideways move. You need a role that gives you more to sell and a business that matches your drive. Your experience You have been in sales long enough to know what works. You have built relationships, sold creative print solutions, and you understand how to translate technical production into a commercial opportunity. You have sold into agencies, retail, events, property or brand environments. You win business on capability, reliability and scale rather than chasing the lowest price. What you will be doing with your experience in this role This role is about selling one of the most capable print facilities in the UK. Three 5m-wide printers. Direct-to-substrate technology. Flatbeds. The ability to deliver award-winning projects for some of the best-known names out there. You will take that capability to market, win new accounts and grow existing ones. You will be backed by a strong delivery team so you can focus on driving growth. About the company This is a business built on heritage and knowledge, now moving into a new era. The MD has taken the baton from the previous generation and is bringing fresh ambition, creativity and a clear drive for growth. It is a company with personality and culture at its heart. Clients stay. Employees stay. The last sales hire is now ten years in. The project manager is in year five. The production team in years four, six and two. This is a place where people build long-term careers and are part of something exciting. Next steps This is the perfect moment to join. If you want to be part of a company that is investing, ambitious and moving forward while others stand still, this is your chance. Get in touch and let us have a conversation.
