Welcome Our New Business Development Manager, Rebecca

Charlie Port • Oct 09, 2023

We are thrilled to welcome Rebecca to The SMART Group as our new Business Development Manager. We caught up with her to learn more about her background, achievements, and new role here with us.

What was your background prior to The SMART Group? 


"Strangely, my background and degree is in Animal Behaviour until I realised about 4 years ago that I absolutely loved sales! I started my career at Battersea Dogs Home, moving into animal nutrition around 7 years later which then led to my first sales role selling luxury leisure items. I was fortunate enough to then stumble across The SMART Group and the rest is history!"


What made you want to join The SMART Group? 


"The beauty and aesthetics industry has always interested me; I love everything about it. Pairing that passion with a sales and development role is perfect for me. I liked that The SMART Group is well established in the industry and only supplies the highest quality products to other business owners. Everyone I met at The SMART Group before I joined was so friendly and passionate about the company, making it an easy decision." 


What is your new role at The SMART Group and what does it involve?


"My role as Business Development Manager involves speaking with new and existing clients, offering full business support, and helping them to grow and develop within the industry. This includes generating sales for The SMART Group and assisting in growing new business."

The SMART Group Customer Service

What are you most excited about joining The SMART Group? 


"I love to learn, so definitely learning about all the products! I’m very customer-focused, so getting to know the clients and building relationships is something I look forward to."


What achievement are you most proud of in life?


"During my time at Battersea, I was able to foster hundreds of dogs and cats to get them ready for rehoming. Without that, it might not have been possible to find them new homes."


Who/ What inspires you?


"My grandfather. He built his business from the bottom with very little and achieved many amazing things in his life." 


What is the most useful thing you have learnt since joining?


"I’ve previously worked in a B2C industry and have really enjoyed dealing directly with business owners. Learning about the different products and how they can enhance clients' businesses, as well as understanding the results that can be achieved, has also been extremely interesting."
