Founder Managing Director, Andy Hayward said: “Our focus is particularly on small and medium size enterprises (SMEs), where we effectively fill the role of a commercial sales infrastructure partner, providing all the support services which go with business development, as well as customer and market-facing sales activities themselves. Expanding our team to strengthen our lead generation, appointment making, market research, training and IT capability will significantly enhance the added value our clients derive from what we do for them, without their incurring the direct overhead costs of providing these functions in-house”.
Mike Newboult has been appointed Training and Development Manager, to design and deliver Hayward Miller’s own portfolio of specialist sales tuition and training. In addition, he will work alongside Andrew Hayward and the firm’s team of highly experienced external associates to support its specialist mentoring and coaching activities which help individuals new to some niche market sectors grow their industry knowledge, people and leadership skills. Mike Newboult’s arrival also runs concurrently with the firm’s launch of an on-line booking and payment system for its training courses.
Samantha Sacks has joined Hayward Miller as Sales Coordinator, heading up the firm’s lead generation and appointments activities. She will also strengthen the client exhibition and conference support team at events across the UK.
Qualified market researcher, Laurel Deegan joins to develop specialist market sector and industry intelligence, which will support clients and strengthen the firm’s sales strategy, customer profiling and targeting work.
IT apprentice, Georgia McGhee will work across the team to support its growing network and data management requirements.
