Reed is supporting a well-established and growing business within the construction supply sector to recruit an Internal Sales Executive, based remotely from home, based in and around Somerset/Bristol area.

This is a fantastic opportunity to join a business experiencing growth under a newly appointed Managing Director, offering a fast-paced, commercially focused environment where your ability to deliver transactional sales results will be key.

This is not a field sales or BDM role, it is a hands-on, desk-based sales position suited to someone who thrives on high-volume activity, speed, and accuracy.

Working arrangement

• Fully home-based (existing home office required)
• Candidates must be based in the Somerset / North Somerset / Bristol area
• Monday – Friday, 9am – 5pm
• Monthly team meetings and training sessions
• One visit per month to the Midlands-based depot
• Initial onboarding: 2–3 days per week on-site for the first 2 weeks (accommodation provided)

The role

Working remotely, you’ll manage a constant flow of inbound and outbound sales activity, taking ownership of enquiries from initial contact through to order.

Key responsibilities include:

• Handling inbound calls, emails, and web enquiries throughout the day
• Producing accurate quotations within tight turnaround times (15–20 mins)
• Proactively chasing quotes and converting to orders
• Making outbound calls to existing, lapsed and new customers
• Processing orders and managing activity across CRM and Sage systems
• Coordinating with internal teams on stock, logistics and delivery
• Maintaining accurate customer records and system updates

This is a fast-moving, transactional role — success is driven by volume, responsiveness, accuracy and conversion, not long-term pipeline management or field sales.

What we’re looking for

• Proven experience in an internal / office-based sales role
• A strong background where sales has been your primary focus
• Experience within a product-based business (e.g. construction, plant hire, wholesale, manufacturing)
• Confidence managing call-heavy workloads, including cold calling
• Ability to work in a fast-paced, high-pressure environment
• Highly organised with strong attention to detail
• Comfortable using CRM systems and sales platforms

This role is best suited to an Internal Sales, Account Manager, Hire Desk or Trade Counter professional, rather than someone looking for a field-based or strategic BDM position.

Salary & Benefits

• £30,000 – £37,000 (depending on experience)
• Up to 10% annual bonus (split between individual and company performance)
• Additional monthly sales incentives
• Expenses covered for required travel
• 25 days holiday + bank holidays (including Christmas shutdown)
• Pension scheme
• Full training and long-term development opportunities
• Supportive, team-focused culture
