Area Sales Manager - Homebased/field Sales in Bristol

Purpose of the Role

We exist to elevate life through technological artistry. Are you passionate about the future of mobile technology and naturally charismatic on camera? We are looking for an energetic, results-driven Area Sales Manager who can bridge the gap between traditional field sales and modern digital influence. In this role, you aren’t just visiting stores; you are the digital face of OPPO in your region. You will be responsible for driving sales growth through relationship building, expert product training, and building a powerful digital presence via TikTok. If you have a knack for turning retail staff into advocates and aren’t afraid to go viral, we want to hear from you.

Key Responsibilities

• Drive the Business (Sales & Field Operations)

• Regional Dominance: You will be responsible for a wide geographic territory, requiring a high level of mobility and a proactive approach to travel. You are expected to be "on the road" daily, ensuring the OPPO brand maintains a dominant presence across the entire region.
• Hit the Number: Your primary focus is sales growth (WoW, MoM, and Annually). Use data, regional insights, and digital reach to identify "hidden gems" and execute quick wins.
• Ambassador Leadership: Beyond your own sales efforts, you will manage and inspire a network of Store Ambassadors. You are responsible for their performance, ensuring they are motivated, knowledgeable, and acting as true extensions of the OPPO brand.
• Compliance & Excellence: You are the eyes and ears of the brand. You will rigorously monitor and report on in-store compliance, ensuring that POS materials, stock levels, and brand guidelines are met to the highest standard.
• Commercial Conversations: Negotiate high-impact initiatives in-store to ensure OPPO stands out in a competitive retail footprint, leveraging your relationships to secure prime floor space.
• Reporting: Showcase your success through our mobile platform. You will provide real-time competitor feedback and detailed reports on store performance and compliance metrics.

• TikTok Integration: Create engaging, trend-led TikTok content to showcase OPPO products and features to both retail partners and customers.
• Camera Ready: You must be 100% comfortable being in front of the camera—whether it’s filming a quick product "how-to," a trending challenge, or a live stream.
• Social Advocacy: Use social platforms to build a community within your territory, making OPPO the most "talked about" brand in your region.

• Training Perfection: Deliver innovative training sessions to upskill retail staff. We want someone who thrives "on stage"—whether that stage is a shop floor or a smartphone screen.
• Own the Process: Manage your territory solo, from planning and preparation to final execution.

Requirements & Essential Skills

• Digital Savvy: A deep understanding of TikTok trends, video editing, and social media engagement.
• Experience: Minimum 1–2 years in field sales, field marketing, or professional content creation.
• The "Hustle": A results-driven mindset with a history of achieving sales growth.
• Presence: Highly approachable, outgoing, and completely comfortable being the face of the brand on camera.
• Logistics: Full UK Driver’s Licence is essential. Must be willing to travel "on patch" (Monday–Friday) with a requirement to work at least one weekend a month.
