About the Role
This highly successful company is looking for a Regional Sales Manager / Area Sales Manager to join at the top-end of the business. This is an important role within the company.
This business specialises within the civils sector, so the ideal candidate will have experience of civils products. If you have transferable sales skills which are relevant from another sector in the construction supply world, you may also be considered.
The business has an enviable range of products sold into the builders merchants world and the construction sector itself. This gives you multiple channels in which to generate business, but a big part of the role is also keeping the existing ledger of customers happy. They have become accustomed to really good service, and this must be maintained.
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.
