Account Manager – New Business
Stoke-on-Trent | Full-time, Monday to Friday
Salary: Up to £35,000 per annum (DOE)
Sector: Manufacturing / Construction Sales

Join one of the UK's leading steel fencing manufacturers in a varied sales role

Paramount Steel Fence has been manufacturing and supplying high-quality steel security fencing, gates, and access solutions for over 30 years. With a strong reputation across commercial, industrial, and public sector markets, they are now looking for a motivated and personable Account Manager – New Business to join their team.

This is a varied sales role where you'll be developing new business alongside managing and growing relationships with existing and dormant accounts. You'll be well supported by an experienced internal team and have a strong, established product range behind you — so you won't be starting from scratch.

What you'll be doing

  • Proactively identifying and approaching new business opportunities across commercial, industrial, and construction markets
  • Re-engaging dormant accounts and growing relationships within the existing customer base
  • Managing the full sales cycle from initial enquiry through to quotation and close
  • Building strong, lasting relationships
  • Working alongside the internal estimating team to prepare and issue accurate and competitive quotations
  • Handling incoming enquiries from new and existing customers efficiently and professionally
  • Conducting outbound calls to prospective clients to generate leads and develop your pipeline
  • Maintaining and developing your own customer database using internal systems
  • Managing your own pipeline and activity using the internal CRM system
  • Working towards individual targets and collaborating with colleagues to ensure smooth day-to-day operations

What we're looking for

  • Experience in B2B sales, ideally in a proactive or outward-facing capacity
  • A confident, personable communicator who enjoys building relationships
  • Self-motivated and organised, with the ability to manage your own workload
  • Experience in construction, manufacturing, or a trade-related sector is a bonus but not essential
  • Resilient and commercially minded with a genuine drive to hit targets
  • A full UK driving licence is advantageous

What's on offer

  • Salary up to £35,000 per annum depending on experience
  • Established business with a strong market reputation and quality product range
  • Real autonomy to develop your territory and make the role your own
  • Supportive and welcoming team environment
  • Clear progression opportunities within a long-standing, reputable business

This vacancy is being advertised on behalf of Appointments Personnel, who are acting as an employment agency.
