Job Description:

 

Our client, originally formed in 1890 is possibly one of Derby’s longest established Printing companies; it came under the stewardship of its current MD through acquisition in 1980 and remains privately owned.  Following the retirement of his business partner a number of years later the MD subsequently became the sole shareholder.

The company is (understandably) proud of its record under recent ownership wherein it has delivered consistent year on year profit in a notoriously difficult and volatile market that has seen many of its competitors stumble.  Notwithstanding this, the company has remained somewhat ‘under the radar’ in terms of its wider profile outside the trade sector. 

The requirement for a new Sales/Business Development Manager has been created as a consequence of the pending retirement, after 25 years, of the current Sales Director.  The emphasis of the role will therefore be to develop new business with new clients, (the company is after all very good at looking after what it has already got).  Whilst there are never any guarantees, the right person, could, in the fullness of time, and if their success warranted, ascend to the role of Sales Director and enjoy all the rewards and benefits commensurate with such a position. 

If you have a proven record of success in the security print arena and are excited by the challenge of this opportunity, we would like to hear from you.  Please call and speak in strictest confidence to Paul Lloyd on 01332 206219.  Alternatively forward a copy of your CV to  mailto:p.lloyd@garrett-lloyd.com
