Across the UK, our branches support local communities with everything they need for building, improving, and creating - we couldn't do it without our people and that's where you come in!

At Huws Gray, we're passionate about helping our customers build better. We're looking for a driven, ambitious and commercially focused Territory Sales Manager to join our National Sales team and play a key role in driving growth across the Penrith and Longtown area.

This is an exciting opportunity for a talented sales professional who thrives on winning new business, building relationships and creating commercial opportunities. You'll be responsible for identifying and developing new customers, re-engaging lapsed accounts, and establishing long-term partnerships that deliver value for both our customers and the business.

What you'll be doing:

• Identify and secure profitable new business opportunities through prospecting, networking, site visits and lead generation activities.
• Build and manage a strong sales pipeline, converting opportunities into long-term trading relationships.
• Develop and execute effective territory plans to maximise customer engagement and account acquisition.
• Build trusted relationships with business owners, buyers and key decision-makers.
• Work closely with branch teams to ensure a seamless customer onboarding experience.

We're happy to explore flexible working options. Feel free to chat with us about it during the interview. While we might not be able to meet every request, we'll always listen with an open mind-and there's no judgment in asking.

We're looking for a driven and ambitious sales professional who thrives on building new business and creating lasting customer relationships.

Most importantly, you'll bring energy, resilience and a passion for winning new business.

At Huws Gray, we believe that a diverse and inclusive workforce makes us stronger, smarter and better at serving our customers.

We're proud to be an equal opportunities employer and we are committed to creating a respectful and inclusive workplace, whether you're based in one of our branches, on the road or in one of our offices.
