Jobsgopublic is the UK’s leading jobsite for the public sector. Jobsgopublic carries 2500 jobs from mainly local and central government, charities and the third (not for profit) sector. My role as a Relationship and Sales Executive in the direct sales team was to sell advertising and jobs on the website whilst looking after a portfolio of clients in central London. I was employed for a three month trial period after which several candidates had the opportunity to gain a permanent position. Following this period, I was selected as the only Sales Executive. I consistently exceeded my sales target and was promoted to a senior sales position. This demonstrates my determination and drive to reach set targets. During my 18 month tenure at Jobsgopublic my main achievement was to bring in over £180,000 of business deals.
