Sales Account Manager

Department: The IT Bay

Company: Ikonic Technology Ltd

Role Title: Sales Account Manager (Permanent)

Salary: Competitive, commensurate with qualifications and experience + uncapped commission

Start Date: ASAP

Location: Heywood, Lancashire (Hybrid – 2–3 days per week on-site)

The IT Bay is a fast-growing ecommerce business supplying IT and electronics to both B2B and B2C customers across the UK. We’re now at a pivotal point in our growth journey, and we’re looking for two high-performing Sales Account Managers who are excited by the opportunity to help shape the future sales direction of the business.

This is not a standard sales role. It’s a unique chance for commercially minded sales professionals to join a business with huge potential, a growing digital footprint, and the freedom to make a real impact.

The successful candidates will play a central role in defining our route-to-market strategy, building customer relationships from the ground up, and helping establish The IT Bay as a recognised and respected brand in the UK IT channel.

- Identifying and closing new business opportunities, including your own prospecting and outreach

- Building, owning and developing customer accounts over time

- Working closely with vendors and distributors to structure competitive deals and solutions

- Collaborating with the ecommerce and marketing teams on campaign ideas, promotions and content

- Feeding into our overall sales strategy, approach and customer engagement playbook

- Representing The IT Bay in a professional, credible and ambitious way

- Autonomy: You’ll have the freedom to shape how you sell, who you target and how you grow your pipeline

- Impact: You’ll be instrumental in helping to grow a brand that’s still emerging, with support but without layers of red tape

- Ownership: This is your chance to take real ownership of sales development in a business that’s ready to scale

- A proven background in B2B sales, ideally in the IT channel (hardware, software, services or distribution)

- Confident in handling the full sales cycle: prospecting, pitching, quoting, closing, and managing accounts

- A self-starter who’s comfortable owning targets, leads and outcomes without micromanagement

- Someone who thrives on new business, strategic thinking and building relationships from scratch

- Comfortable using Microsoft Office and CRM systems to manage and report on activity

- Experience working in an ecommerce-led business or alongside digital marketing teams

- Familiarity with vendor deal registration, bid pricing or structured projects

- Confidence producing basic sales content or promotional ideas for campaigns

- A competitive salary, commensurate with experience and qualifications

- Uncapped commission, directly tied to your contribution and performance

- 20 days annual leave plus UK bank holidays (with up to 4 days reserved for Christmas shutdown)

- A genuine opportunity to grow with the business and shape the sales function from the ground up

- Commercially driven and motivated by results

- A builder, not just a follower — someone who wants to create, not just maintain

- Customer-focused, curious, and solution-oriented

- Resilient, resourceful, and excited by a blank canvas

- A strong communicator who enjoys a fast-paced, collaborative team culture

If this sounds like the kind of opportunity you’ve been waiting for, we’d love to hear from you. Even if you’re not actively looking but are curious about what this role could offer, feel free to get in touch for a no-obligation, confidential chat. You might be surprised at what’s possible.
