Responsible for TARGET +250 truck accounts, new business development. Successful conversion of 2 out of the 8 initial target accounts (in the first 6 weeks after induction) shows the potential of what a planned "attack" can bring. Time consuming process and a lack of in-house co-ordinators made the successes difficult to live with - hence my short tenure.

Supplying bespoke hand built in the U.K. containers to the recycling industry. Customer relationship skills and dynamic new business process is paramount here. A good synergy for the Fork Lift Truck industry sharing many similarities and processes. A huge and expanding "headline news" industry. A pleasure to work with and represent, this Company will always continue to do well.

Joined as Sales Director & left as Sales Director.Responsible for the internal and external sales teams. Capital goods sales and solution service, B2B, B2C including the ownership of large key accounts including The Range (from 2003-2016 includes securing the order for their main DC April 2016). Increased turnover seven fold since joining this independent company based in the South West.Note: Since returning (by invitation) January 2019, there is a complete set of new Directors and Lift West is owned by Dunstall Holdings Group. Everything has changed....it had to!

After building a team and creating a winning sales strategy, I became the General Manager of the vehicle contracts division. Working alongside Senior Directors I agreed target markets, multi channel sales strategies, development of the value proposition and took over the major account direct sales responsibilities.

Responsible for the South West region. After 7 years of building and retaining a client base, I outperformed 40+ other Sales people and was named the salesperson of the year winning the "1Lex" award (that's a new car of your choice for a year with the number plate, 1 LEX). Member of the Chairmans' Achievers Club. Surpassed all goals for the last FIVE years and attended/passed many excellent training courses - these now relevant and still being used to this day.

Contract Hire to Fork Lift Trucks, capital values from 2k - 250k, covering the South West of England. Secured the first man-up pod crane order into the Argos distribution centre in Bridgwater.After 2 consecutive years of hitting targets, promoted to Senior Sales Engineer.Fantastic training, fond memories and my initial "injection" for the MHE world that I later returned to.
