Our contract Sales Consultants will introduce Quanta to potential clients in a professional way, arranging meetings where possible to present the benefits of working with Quanta and to secure authorisation for us to supply staff to the client.

Having generated the requests for contract staff, the contract sales consultant is also responsible for the search and selection of suitable candidates - either by working alone or with our team of specialist Delivery Executives.

Key areas of the role:

. Undertaking searches on the company's database, online job boards and utilising networking channels to target the passive market in order to identify suitable candidates and discuss opportunities with them
