Elias Whiteoak

Sales Manager @Rs Connect

Birmingham, GB

As a Sales Manager at RS Connect, I was responsible for face-to-face field sales across the UK, reporting directly into the Sales Director. My role focused on generating new business by finding work for our team of auto electrical engineers and creating additional revenue streams through supply and fit jobs, supply-only, or fit-only contracts. I worked closely with senior decision-makers and leadership teams, travelling nationwide to meet customers and develop opportunities that could grow into long-term repeat business.A highlight of my time with RS Connect was successfully onboarding Teletrac Navman, one of the UK’s largest telematics providers, for installation work. This partnership demonstrated our capability to deliver at scale for major industry players. Alongside this, I built and managed a pipeline of fleet and telematics opportunities, ensuring clients received tailored solutions and service to match their requirements.This role allowed me to combine strategic business development with hands-on field sales, showing my ability to create new revenue, represent the business nationwide, and build partnerships that delivered sustainable growth.
