About us
With 50 years of fire safety experience, we serve fire door installers and firestopping contractors across the UK through our vast portfolio of passive fire protection products from well-known and trusted brands.
The Role
This is a high impact, hunter style sales role for someone who thrives on building relationships from the ground up and creating genuine commercial value. You will identify and win new business, then systematically grow key accounts by increasing our share of customer spend across a broad product range.
This is not an account maintenance role, you will be expected to create your own opportunities, develop your own pipeline, and take full ownership of your results.
You’ll be supported by a strong internal Sales Support team, allowing you to focus on what you do best: winning and growing business.
Key Responsibilities
Prospecting & Pipeline Development
- Identify high-potential businesses currently under-trading or not trading with FireSealsDirect
- Build and maintain a structured, prioritised pipeline of target accounts
- Generate your own appointments through outbound activity, networking, and referrals
- Take a proactive approach to business development — never waiting for leads

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.
