Regional Field Sales Executive - Inverness
Are you an experienced FMCG Field Sales Representative? Are you ready to take the next step in your sales career with a company that values initiative, collaboration, and growth?
Would you like to be part of an inclusive, innovative global FMCG business supported by 25,000 employees? Imperial Brands have an exciting opportunity for a driven and passionate Regional Field Sales Executive to join our industry-leading Field Sales team in Inverness, Scotland.
This is more than just a job—it’s a chance to be part of a team that has built long-standing, trusted relationships with retailers and wholesalers across the region.
As a Regional Field Sales Executive, you’ll be at the heart of our business, representing our brands directly in the field and making a impact every day. You’ll enjoy the freedom to shape your territory, the flexibility to manage your own schedule, and the support of colleagues who are experts in their field. No two days will be the same: one day you might be introducing new products to independent retailers, the next you could be strengthening partnerships with key wholesale accounts.
We know that success comes from investing in our people, which is why we offer unrivalled training, mentoring, and ongoing support to help you thrive. You’ll be joining a team that celebrates achievements, shares knowledge, and works together to deliver outstanding results. If you’re proactive, ambitious, and eager to make a role your own, this is the perfect opportunity to showcase your skills and grow with us here at Imperial Brands.
This is a field-based role, and you will need to be able to travel to your customers sites across Scotland. You will ideally live in Inverness (Central) or surrounding areas to make it easier to travel to your customers sites.
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.
