Contracts Sales Manager

Location: Bradford
Company: Joseph Parr
Job type: Full-time

We’re looking for an experienced contracts sales professional to establish and grow the contracts sales department at our Bradford branch.

This is an opportunity to build the department from the ground up, win new business and develop lasting relationships with contractors across the region. You’ll have the freedom to shape how the department operates, with the support of an established builders’ merchant and the wider Joseph Parr group.

The role

  • Develop and lead the contracts sales operation at our Bradford branch.
  • Identify and win new contracts and project opportunities.
  • Build strong relationships with contractors, developers and other key customers.
  • Get involved early in projects to understand customer requirements and position the branch to win the work.
  • Prepare and follow up quotations and tenders.
  • Work closely with the branch team, suppliers and colleagues across the wider group to deliver for customers.
  • Track sales activity, pipeline, conversion and margin, and report on progress.
  • Help shape the department’s processes and future growth.

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.
