Field New Sales Executive
Are you a lift industry salesperson who’s at your best opening doors and winning new maintenance contracts, but tired of fighting process, paperwork and a service team that lets you down? Liftec Express, a leading independent lift and escalator specialist, is growing its sales team. It’s looking for a genuine new business hunter to build its lift maintenance portfolio across Milton Keynes, Luton and Cambridge.
The Role at a Glance
New Business Sales Executive
Field-based: Milton Keynes / Luton / Cambridge territory
50,000 – 65,000 Basic DOE + 10,000 – 15,000 OTE Uncapped
Car allowance + business mileage reimbursed monthly + company mobile
Full-Time | Permanent
The Opportunity
This is a pure new business role. There’s no inherited account book and no renewals.
Your mission is to win new lift maintenance contracts across a patch with thousands of lifts in it.
You’ll:
• Build and manage your own prospect pipeline
• Target decision-makers across property management, facilities, building ownership and main contractors
• Take opportunities from first contact through to signed contract
• Conduct site visits and consultative customer meetings
• Prepare proposals, presentations and commercial submissions
• Lead and complete tender submissions, including full commercial review
•Negotiate long-term maintenance agreements
• Keep your CRM pipeline and forecasting accurate
• Work with our operational teams to ensure a smooth handover once business is won
Lift service contracts are typically three years and are well written, so some opportunities mean keeping a prospect warm for the long haul. Others can be won quickly, and there are always one- and two-lift wins to be had. You’ll need the drive of a hunter and the patience to build relationships over time.
About You
You’ll already be selling lift service and maintenance contracts and know how the industry works. This role needs someone who can hit the ground running, so lift industry experience is essential.
You’ll bring:
• A track record of winning new B2B lift service & maintenance customers
• Strong prospecting and pipeline-building skills
• Consultative, relationship-led selling. SPIN-style approaches work really well here.
• The ability to understand customer pressure points and build trust over long sales cycles
• Strong commercial, negotiation and presentation skills
• Experience with proposals and tenders
• Good CRM and forecasting discipline
• A full UK driving licence and willingness to travel
Service sales here is about long-term relationships and understanding what keeps customers awake at night. It doesn’t need the deep engineering expertise of modernisation sales. Our modernisation specialists work alongside you when those opportunities arise. We’re looking for people who are open-minded and inquisitive, take extreme ownership, put the customer at the centre and act with honesty and integrity. If that sounds like you, come and help us build what comes next.
