You’ll be confident using CAD software (full training provided) to create bespoke plans, manage a pipeline of quotes, and maximise sales opportunities through upselling and add-ons. A full UK driving licence is essential , as you'll regularly travel to customer sites, showrooms, and project locations. If you're a self-motivated sales professional with a passion for design and delivering outstanding service, we’ll give you the tools and support to succeed.

• Creative Flair & CAD Expertise: Using CAD, you’ll design dream kitchens that reflect the customer's vision, asking the right questions to tailor the solution to their needs.
• Networking & Collaboration: Building a strong customer base to meet targets, you’ll also work closely with the external Sales Rep to ensure customer requirements are met.
• On‑Site Visits: Not all customers will come to the branch, so you’ll visit homes or building sites to create inspirational designs on CAD and present them to clients.
• Safety First: Safety is key, so you’ll ensure colleagues and customers leave the showroom safely by following all safety policies and procedures.
