If you're passionate about winning new business, building long term customer relationships and making a real impact, our Area Sales Manager opportunity with Dawsongroup Vans could be exactly what you're looking for.

You'll take ownership of your territory, developing new business opportunities while becoming the trusted local face of Dawsongroup Vans. Working closely with customers and colleagues across the business, you'll help deliver sustainable growth by promoting service, building partnerships and identifying opportunities that create long term value.

About You

You're someone who enjoys building relationships, spotting opportunities and delivering results through a consultative approach. Experience in commercial vehicles, asset rental or B2B sales is beneficial, but if you have transferable skills and the drive to succeed, we'd still love to hear from 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.
