£34,000 + Bonus + Vehicle

Kick-start your sales career with a globally recognised FMCG brand.

The Advocate Group are partnering with one of the world's most recognisable FMCG brands as they continue to invest heavily in their UK field sales operation.

This is a brilliant opportunity for an ambitious graduate or early-carer candidate looking to build a career in FMCG sales with a business known for developing talent and promoting from within.

You'll be given your own London territory to manage, working with independent retailers and convenience stores to grow the brand's presence, availability and visibility.

What you'll be doing

This is a genuinely hands-on commercial role. You'll be out in the market every day, building relationships with retailers and taking ownership of how the brand performs across your territory.

Who are we looking for?

We're looking for ambitious, commercially minded people who want to build a career in sales and are excited by the opportunity to represent a major consumer brand.

You could be a recent graduate looking for your first commercial role or already in an entry-level sales role and looking to break into FMCG

More important is your attitude. You'll need to be confident speaking to different people, comfortable working independently and motivated by targets and seeing tangible results from your work.

A full UK driving licence is essential, and you must be based within the M25.

Why apply?
