Junior Sales Executive
Location: Hamstreet, Ashford, Kent
Salary: £28,000 basic plus a discretionary performance-related incentive
Job type: Full-time, permanent and fully office-based
Windsor Food Machinery supplies and supports food processing and packaging machinery for customers across the UK.
We are looking for a Junior Sales Executive to join our established sales team. This is a fully office-based position at our premises in Hamstreet. It is not a field sales or hybrid role.
You will respond to customer enquiries, prepare quotations, follow up sales opportunities and build relationships with new and existing customers.
You do not need previous experience in food machinery. Full product and industry training will be provided. We are looking for someone with the right attitude, confidence and willingness to learn.
Reasons to use Rodeo
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.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.

- Someone who is organised, reliable and comfortable following up opportunities
- Good general computer skills
