At CCF we supply the insulation, ceilings and drylining that go into the buildings people live and work in. This role puts you in front of our highest spending customers, with a ledger of your own and the freedom to decide how you grow it.
This isn't order taking. You'll be the person your customers ring first when a project lands, because you understand their business well enough to solve the problem before they've finished describing it.
What you'll be doing
- Owning a ledger of key accounts across your territory, building genuine relationships with the decision makers who matter
- Making CCF the first call across every product category, not just the categories you're already winning
- Hitting sales and profit targets on existing accounts and bringing new business through the door
- Negotiating full terms packages and making the commercial calls on customer and project activity
- Building many to many relationships so accounts sit with CCF, not just with you
- Tracking projects, customers and market movements so nothing lands as a surprise
- Reading the market properly: who's competing and what's shifting
- Supporting and mentoring sales colleagues around you
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
