Salary £38-42,000 Basic, Excellent Bonus, Company Car & Superb Benefits including a Really Good Pension Scheme + 25 Days Holiday plus Bank Holidays

Our client is a leading distributor of catering equipment with a loyal customer base in Scotland, however that market penetration does not ( until now ) extend to south of the border. A recent merger now presents the opportunity to extend the sales efforts into England, and we have been retained to identify and recruit three accomplished individuals ( one to cover the North, one for the Midlands, and South ). Although these are new areas, an existing customer base does exist as the result of a strong market presence by the other party to the merger, so there are existing and warm relationships already which should make the cross fertilisation of products relatively easy.

To be considered for one of these exciting roles you should ideally have worked as a chef at some stage in the past as much of the work involves doing product demos to chefs, so youll need an ability to talk to chefs in their own language. Some sales exposure would also be a bonus, although we have also been briefed to accept applications from candidates looking for their first ever sales roles as well.

To be considered for one of these exciting roles, you will need to be a proactive self-starter, highly disciplined and well-organised with a strong desire to succeed. Career prospects are excellent for the right individuals.
