Job description

Graduate Technical Sales Representative Programme

Competitive Starting Salary + Company Car | Level 4 Approved Sales Program | Structured Development Programme | Genuine Career Progression

Location: Suffolk, Norfolk (East Anglia)

Graduating in 2026 or already graduated?

Looking for a career where you'll earn, learn and progress from day one?

This isn't your typical graduate job.

At MGF, you'll work alongside experienced professionals, build relationships with customers across the construction industry, develop valuable commercial skills and receive industry-leading training to become a successful Technical Sales Representative.


We're looking for graduates with the right attitude, ambition and willingness to learn.


Why Join MGF?

As one of the UK's leading providers of temporary works and shoring solutions, MGF has been supporting construction projects for over 40 years. As a proud member of The 5% Club, we're committed to developing future talent through structured learning, mentoring and genuine career progression.


When you join MGF you'll benefit from:


  • Company Car

  • Structured Graduate Development Programme

  • Sales Success Programme

  • Dedicated mentor and ongoing coaching

  • Hands-on technical and commercial training

  • Exposure to major construction and infrastructure projects

  • Clear career progression opportunities

  • Supportive, collaborative team environment


What You'll Be Doing

From day one you'll gain exposure to both the commercial and technical sides of the business.


You'll be:



  • Building relationships with customers across your region

  • Visiting construction sites and customer locations

  • Learning how major construction projects operate

  • Working with contractors, engineers and project managers

  • Identifying new business opportunities

  • Managing and growing customer accounts

  • Providing technical solutions to customer challenges

  • Working closely with depot, operations and engineering teams

  • Developing your commercial awareness and sales skills


Every day is different, giving you the opportunity to learn, develop and build confidence in a customer-facing role.


What's It Really Like?

I expected the role to be mainly sales-focused, but it's so much more. Every day is different - from visiting construction sites and meeting customers to working with engineers to solve technical challenges. Seeing a project go from an initial enquiry to equipment arriving safely on site is incredibly rewarding.


One of our current graduates also told us:


"You don't need to be an engineer before you join. MGF gives you the training - you just need to be willing to learn and get stuck in."


Your Development

We believe careers are built, not simply jobs filled.


Our structured programme is designed to help you become a successful Technical Sales professional through practical experience, mentoring and continuous learning.


You'll learn how to:



  • Build long-term customer relationships

  • Identify and win new business

  • Present confidently to customers

  • Understand temporary works and technical construction solutions

  • Manage customer accounts and projects

  • Grow revenue within your territory

  • Become a trusted Technical Sales professional


You'll also gain experience across sales, operations, engineering and depot functions, giving you a well-rounded understanding of the business.


We Think You'll Enjoy This Role If You Are...


  • Curious and eager to learn

  • Confident speaking with new people

  • Commercially minded

  • Competitive and motivated

  • Resilient when faced with challenges

  • Looking for a long-term career with genuine progression


Any degree discipline is welcome.

Previous sales experience isn't required. Whether you've gained transferable skills through university, part-time work, hospitality, retail, sport or student societies, we'd love to hear from you.


After Your First Year You Could Be...


  • Managing your own customer accounts

  • Building long-term relationships with customers

  • Visiting clients independently across your region

  • Working towards recognised professional qualifications

  • Driving business growth within your territory

  • Building the foundations of a successful career in Technical Sales


What's In It For You?


  • Company Car

  • 22 days annual leave plus Bank Holidays

  • Structured Graduate Development Programme

  • Level 4 Approved Sales Program

  • Industry-recognised training and qualifications

  • Ongoing coaching and mentoring

  • Clear career progression opportunities

  • Opportunity to work for one of the UK's leading construction solutions providers


Ready to Start Your Career?

If you're an ambitious graduate looking for more than just another graduate job, we'd love to hear from you.


Join MGF and develop into the next generation of Technical Sales professionals while working on some of the UK's biggest construction projects.
