Description
Job Title: Sales Director/Head of Temps - Senior Leadership Role
Job Duties: Managing and building the entire temporary team, currently consisting of a BOH events desk, a BOH pubs, restaurants and hotels desk, a FOH temps desk (non-contract catering) and a BOH & FOH contract-catering desk. You will need to also run your own desk. You will also contribute to the overall strategy and direction of the business through board meeting contributions.
Commission Scheme:

• Personal Commission:

Monthly Billings | Commission Band
0 - 4,999 | 0%
5,000 - 9,999 | 10%
10,000 - 14,999 | 15%
15,000 - plus | 20%
So for example, if you bill 17,500, you will get 20% commission of 17,500 = 3,500

• Team Commission:

5% of the combined total of the temporary team.
So if the team bill 100,000 then the commission is 5,000
