• Work closely with internal departments in Cheshire—including customer service, technical, and logistics—to ensure efficient order processing and after-sales support.
• Monitor market trends, competitor activity, and regional developments, reporting insights to management.
• Attend trade shows, industry events, and networking functions.

• Experience selling to electrical wholesalers, contractors, or OEMs.
• Strong understanding of the UK construction and infrastructure sectors.
• Ability to support financial planning and assist with annual budget development.

Reporting to the Sales Development Manager, this role requires a self-driven individual capable of planning and managing their workload independently. You will be expected to maintain a proactive, organised, and improvement-focused approach to all tasks.

We are committed to equal opportunities and the creation of a fair, inclusive working environment. Health and safety is integral to our operations, and all employees are expected to work in line with company policies.

Qualifications & Requirements

• Proven experience in sales or account management within the cable, electrical, or industrial distribution sectors.
• Strong technical knowledge of electrical cable products and applications (highly desirable).
• Excellent communication, negotiation, and interpersonal skills.
• Self-motivated and target-driven, with the ability to work independently in the field.
