2 Sales Leadership jobs in the United Kingdom

Before we dive in…

If you're the kind of hard-hitting, big-ego, aggressive salesperson who throws their weight around, causes friction, and burns out (or burns bridges) within a year - this isn’t the right fit. 

We’re building something different here. Our people are amazing and the life blood of our incredible business and we owe it to them to hire the right colleague who can inspire, nurture, motivate and coach them to success the right way. The Croci way…

Ok great… you’re still here… let’s begin…
