• Start building relationships, making deals and advising customers face-to-face over the trade counter e.g. electricians, contractors and tradespeople.
• Begin your formal sales training course, staying overnight alongside other Graduate Trainees from across the company.
• Complete workbook assessments to underpin your learning and development and receive financial incentives for each one passed to a required standard.

6-12 months
