Why would you join this company?

This is a successful and well‑established family‑owned business with a multi‑million‑pound turnover and a strong position within its sector. Despite its size and continued success, it has retained the friendly, personal approach that makes it feel like a place where people genuinely know and support each other.

You'll be joining a business that values its people and invests in their development. It's an opportunity to represent a market‑leading company, build long‑term relationships with customers across the UK and play an important part in the continued growth of the business.

You'll ideally be someone who is commercially minded, organised and proactive. Someone who enjoys being out meeting customers, spotting opportunities to grow business and finding ways to improve account performance.

You'll also need to be comfortable working independently, planning your own diary and managing a UK‑wide customer base, while being very much part of a supportive office‑based team.
