Role Overview

This field-based role offers a competitive salary with an uncapped bonus scheme, along with benefits including ongoing training, a yearly incentive, an executive company car, private healthcare insurance, a laptop and phone, and a friendly working environment.

About the Role

This Regional Sales Representative role involves managing our customers in West Kent, selling them our extensive range of high-quality light-side building products. Part of the role is also to find and bring on new customers, which will attract additional bonuses.

About the Company

Founded in 1875, the Nicholls and Clarke Group has grown to become the UK’s largest national manufacturer and distributor of fine quality sanitary ware, ceramic and porcelain tiles, Nicobond tile adhesives, grouting compounds, architectural ironmongery, and general hardware.

Being field-based, you will not be in an office, although you will have a main distribution centre to support you and help you grow your sales.

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.
