Meet the Team: George, Graduate Sales Account Manager
Meet George – one of the newest faces in our Sales team at Stocksigns! Fresh from university, George joined us through our graduate scheme and is also gaining valuable experience as part of the Pareto apprenticeships programme. He’s already making his mark with customers and showing his competitive edge in the world of sales
Life at Stocksigns
As a Sales Account Manager, George spends his days juggling emails, sending quotes, chatting with customers on the phone, and reaching out to new businesses. Organisation is key and he’s mastered the art of Post-it notes, call schedules, and colour-coded emails to keep on top of it all.
One of the projects he’s most proud of so far has been working with Greenfingers Charity, helping provide signage for hospice gardens. Being able to contribute to such a meaningful project has been a real highlight.
What keeps George engaged is the people – he loves building rapport with customers across the UK, from Exeter all the way up to Edinburgh. And, being naturally competitive, he admits it’s always exciting to check the sales board at the end of the day to see how he’s stacking up!
Career Journey
After finishing university, George knew sales was the route he wanted to take – especially in B2B, which suited his skills and interests. Stocksigns was the perfect match, offering him the chance to learn, grow, and be part of a supportive team.
Since joining, George says his biggest takeaway so far has been organisation. From scheduling follow-up calls to categorising emails, he’s quickly learned that being organised makes everything far more manageable in a fast-paced environment.
The team spirit has also made a big impression:
“It is a true team at Stocksigns. Everyone is happy to help everyone. It’s been a real pleasure learning from so many people, in all of the different departments and I know I can continue to learn as I go.”
