About Phoenix Play
Phoenix Play is an independently owned company with over 13 years’ experience designing and supplying inspiring outdoor learning and play environments.
We work closely with a wide range of customers and stakeholders to design purpose-driven, fun outdoor spaces that inspire a love of learning, encourage movement, and create opportunities for connection, friendship and storytelling.
Our mission, Stories Start Here, reflects our belief that great outdoor spaces create the moments that shape how children grow and learn. As an Outdoor Learning Consultant in our Sales Team, you’ll play a key role in helping bring this vision to life.
The Opportunity
Are you looking for a career that is fun, creative and genuinely makes a difference?
We are looking for an Outdoor Learning Consultant to join our Sales Team, covering the North of the UK.
This is a remote, field-based role, combining site visits with home-based admin and design work. Typically, there will be an equal mix of field-based and home-based work across a fortnight, however, this can change depending on customer demand and business needs.
Under the guidance of our Head of Sales, you will work closely with our Internal Sales, Visualisation, Operations and Marketing teams, helping turn a customer’s brief and vision into an inspiring outdoor learning and play space.
