If you're someone who thrives on variety, loves building relationships and gets a quiet thrill from keeping things running beautifully behind the scenes, this could be the role you've been looking for.

We're delighted to be recruiting on behalf of a multi-award-winning, design-led British brand with a global reputation that speaks for itself.

This is a broad, varied support role sitting at the heart of their International and UK Sales function. You'll be a key point of contact for distributors and customers worldwide, supporting the sales team with everything from lead generation and CRM management to quotations, sample orders, trade show coordination and brand presence across distributor channels.

It's not a field sales role, but it's far from purely administrative. Our client is looking for someone with genuine commercial curiosity: someone who enjoys spotting opportunities, building rapport, and contributing to growth, not just processing requests.

Day-to-day, you will be:

• Researching and qualifying new international leads
• Preparing quotations and managing the sales pipeline
• Coordinating trade show logistics and meeting schedules
• Supporting distributor showrooms with POS and brand materials
• Communicating product launches and pricing updates to global partners
• Occasionally covering UK retail and online store enquiries

About You

• You're highly organised and detail-driven, but you also know when to pick up the pace.
• You're confident communicating with people from different cultures and backgrounds.
• You enjoy working in an environment where no two days look exactly alike.
• You'll have strong IT skills (Microsoft Office, CRM systems) and excellent written and verbal English.
• A genuine interest in sales and business development.
• A passport is essential, and additional languages would be a real bonus.

Most importantly, you'll bring a proactive, can-do attitude and a genuine desire to make a positive impact in a business that's still growing.

Why Apply?

This is a close-knit, collaborative team where your contribution genuinely matters. The role has real scope to develop, both commercially and professionally, within a brand that's already made its mark on the world stage.
