About AFD
AFD is a UK supplier of raised access floor and hollow floor systems, the flooring used in offices, data centres and commercial buildings. We're an established, growing business, and we're creating this new role to drive our next stage of growth.
About the role
This is a front-facing, relationship-first sales role, not a desk-based order-processing job. You'll be AFD's face in the market, building long-term relationships with contractors, installers, specifiers and consultants across the UK. Relevant construction experience is preferred, but not essential. You'll get full training and a structured onboarding programme.
What you'll do;
- Build and maintain strong relationships with contractors, installers, specifiers and key industry contacts
- Spend 3–4 days a week on the road visiting customers and sites across the UK
- Identify upcoming projects early, build a pipeline and feed market intelligence back into the business
- Deliver CPD presentations and help position AFD at specification stage
- Represent AFD at meetings, on site and at industry events
- Work closely with our operations team to hand over opportunities smoothly
What we're looking for;
- A confident communicator who's comfortable with people at every level
- Someone who prefers face-to-face engagement to desk work and is happy working independently
- A proactive, ambitious mindset and the drive to help grow the business
- A full, valid UK driving licence (essential)
- A construction industry background is a plus but not required
What you'll get;
- Company car and expenses
- Full product training and structured onboarding
- A new role you can shape, with real scope to grow as the business expands

Closing date is Friday 16th October 2026, 1700 hours
