Area Sales Manager – Merchants
South East
£45,000 - £60,000 car, phone, laptop, plus career progression opportunities
My client is a world-class manufacturing business with products that clients need that can be used in a variety of different routes to market.
I have placed several people with this business over the past few years and the feedback I have received after they have started has been amazing. The company has onboarded them well and integrated them into existing. The training on systems and products has been second to none.
Due to investment and huge growth plans, they are looking to recruit an Area Sales Manager to focus on selling their products to builders’ merchants both nationals and independents.
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.
