- Proper backing – an experienced internal team supporting you and your customers
WHAT YOU’LL BE SELLING
Premium woodscrews, fixings and power-tool accessories built for the professional trade – plus an expanding range of accessories and fixing solutions. It’s a quality sell, where performance and reliability win the business and your product knowledge makes you a trusted partner to your customers.
YOUR PATCH
London, the Home Counties, South East England, the South Coast and South West England – including Greater London, Hertfordshire, Bedfordshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire, Berkshire, Essex, Kent, Surrey, Sussex, Hampshire, Dorset, Wiltshire, Gloucestershire, Somerset, Devon and Cornwall.
Field-based with regular customer visits, so you’ll need to be based with practical access to the territory.
WHAT YOU’LL DO
- Grow an established portfolio of trade and merchant accounts
- Win new business and build a healthy pipeline across the territory
- Build strong relationships with key decision-makers, face to face
- Introduce new products and ranges to increase spend in existing accounts

- Strong relationship-building, communication and negotiation skills
- Self-motivation and organisation – comfortable working independently in the field
- A full UK driving licence
Experience with fixings, fasteners, power-tool accessories or building products is a plus, but not essential. If you’re a strong B2B trade sales professional with the right attitude, we want to hear from you.
THE PACKAGE
- Competitive salary
- Company car and fuel card
- Structured performance-related bonus
- 25 days’ annual holiday plus Bank Holidays
