Internal Sales Exec - Managed Print & Document Solutions

Expired

Job Description:

Our client is one of the most exciting names in managed print, outsourced document solutions and managed IT services. Partnering with one of the largest technology companies in the world has given them an unrivaled service offering which has massively aided new client growth.

 

Due to an excellent 2021 they are looking to add 2 new members to the new business team.
