Job description

At FG Library, we don’t just supply furniture, we design inspiring library and learning environments that shape communities, support education, and transform spaces across the UK and internationally.

With over 25 years of expertise, we are the UK’s leading designer, manufacturer and supplier of library interiors, working with public sector organisations, schools, universities and local authorities. As we continue to grow, we are looking for a dynamic Project Consultant to join our industry-leading sales team.

The Role

This is far more than a traditional sales position. As Project Consultant, you’ll be at the heart of exciting, varied projects, from initial conversations through to completed spaces.

You’ll work directly with clients to understand their vision, translate requirements into creative briefs for our in-house designers, and ultimately present and secure the final solution.

Expect a highly varied role with:

• Regular travel to customer meetings, project sites and stakeholders
• Collaboration with our Northampton HQ, Clerkenwell (London) showroom, and four UK manufacturing sites
• Opportunities to shape library spaces across England and Wales.

You’ll inherit a strong, well-established territory, with an existing pipeline and relationships, alongside the freedom to develop new opportunities and grow the region.

Key Responsibilities

• Build and develop sales across public and education sectors
• Manage and grow both existing and dormant accounts
• Generate and respond to new sales leads and enquiries
• Conduct site visits, surveys and client meetings
• Present tailored design solutions and close sales opportunities
• Maintain accurate pipeline management and forecasting
• Stay informed on market trends, competitors and product developments
• Contribute to strategic sales and marketing initiatives

What We’re Looking For

Personal Attributes

• Commercially driven with a creative approach
• Strong communicator with excellent presentation skills
• Able to listen, interpret and respond to client requirements effectively
• Highly organised with strong attention to detail
• Confident working independently and as part of a team
• Enthusiastic, motivated, and adaptable
• Somebody who is centrally located within the United Kingdom

Experience

• Proven experience in face-to-face sales (essential)
• Full UK driving licence (essential)
• Experience managing a sales territory and sales pipeline (desirable)
• Background in furniture, interiors, education or public sector sales (desirable)

What We Offer

• Base salary with uncapped commission
• 28 days holiday (including bank holidays)
• Ongoing training and professional development
• The opportunity to work on meaningful, high-impact projects across the UK
• Part of a wider group structure, with a well established, loyal and experience team in all areas.

Working Hours

Monday to Friday, 9:00am – 5:30pm

(Flexibility required to meet the demands of the role)

Why Join FG Library?

This is a unique opportunity to step into a creative, consultative sales role where no two days are the same. You’ll be helping shape environments that genuinely make a difference, from schools and universities to public libraries and community spaces.

If you’re driven by building relationships, winning projects, and being part of something tangible and rewarding, we’d love to hear from you.
