You’ll also :

• Ensure promotions are executed accurately and compliance is maintained

Do you have :

GCSE-level education in English and Maths?

Strong communication skills and the ability to build rapport quickly?

Confidence working in a fast-paced environment with multiple priorities?

Experience using Microsoft Office and reporting tools like 360?

If you can answer “yes” to most of these, you could be a great fit.

Desirable Experience

A degree in a relevant discipline

Previous experience in retail, FMCG, or field sales
