Sales Executive Apprenticeship Level 4
Duration: 12-15 months
The sales apprenticeship is professional quality training created by major employers and the Association of Professional Sales (APS) for graduates, school leavers and experienced but under-invested ‘short chain’ sales teams. It is ideal for both Business-to-Business and Business-to-Consumer markets.
Typical roles for the apprenticeship include Sales Advisor, Sales Consultant, Field Sales Executive, Outbound Telesales Executive, Business Development Manager and Account Manager.
