Regional Director - North & Scotland

An opportunity is now available for a Regional Director to join our North and Scotland leadership team to take responsibility for the Travis Perkins branches in Scotland.

Under the leadership of our Regional Managing Director for the North & Scotland, Colin Porterfield, the Regional Director will take full P&L responsibility for all branches across the patch. In addition to being responsible for our Travis Perkins branches, the successful candidate will also work collaboratively with our Managed Services, Hire & Benchmarx operations to drive profitable sales.

Whilst our Regional Director will take direct responsibility for the TP Branch Managers in the region, they will have indirect responsibility for all of the teams within the sub-region, therefore, influencing skills at both a senior and operational level are a prerequisite.

The merchanting world is moving fast, and Colin is keen for a Regional Director to join his team and lead the way with new ways of working, ensuring the region is being run safely, profitably and in-line with the businesses overall objectives. Creative thinking, challenging the ‘norm’ and the ability to deliver change are three key elements to this role, all whilst keeping our customers at the heart of everything that we do.

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.
