Sales Directors

​Sales Directors are the strategic drivers of revenue, team leadership, and growth. They set the pace, define the vision, and build the culture that enables sales teams to thrive. At The ONE Group, we understand that the right Sales Director isn’t just a senior hire, it’s a pivotal one.

Working regionally, with strong networks across Cambridgeshire, Northamptonshire, Hertfordshire, Essex and Peterborough, we partner with organisations to identify Sales Directors who combine commercial acumen, inspirational leadership, and a proven track record of success.

The Sales Director of Today

The modern Sales Director is more than just a deal-closer. They’re data-informed decision-makers, people leaders, and strategic partners to the board. Whether you're navigating a new market, scaling a sales function, or realigning commercial strategy, they set the direction and make it happen.

We place Sales Directors who:

  • Create and execute sales strategies aligned with business goals

  • Build and manage high-performing sales teams

  • Influence and collaborate with C-suite stakeholders

  • Use insight, forecasting, and performance data to drive results

  • Lead change and transformation across commercial functions

  • Understand emerging technologies and evolving buyer behaviours
