About The Senior Sales Manager Role
The Senior Sales Manager for the Logbook Finance Product builds and runs a field sales machine. The job starts with recruitment: Team Leaders, each with 15 Sales Agents every month.

Daily discipline matters: every agent must engage at least eight prospects and close two conversions a day. The manager analyses sales metrics to spot trends and gaps, runs performance reviews on underperformance, and holds all teams accountable for monthly recruitment, sales and portfolio quality targets, while designing training programmes and retention strategies for Team Leaders and agents across the branch network.
Is This Job For You?
- Career level: Senior sales leadership (five years leading sales teams).
- Good fit if: You have recruited and managed large field sales teams against daily conversion targets.
- Good fit if: You know asset-backed or consumer lending and can protect portfolio quality while growing sales.
- Think twice if: You have sold well individually but never led a team; supervision is required.
