Bright A Blind is looking for an experienced, technically minded sales professional to join our expanding Commercial Contract Shading Division.

Based at our modern North London offices, you will work closely with the Directors, Project Manager, Estimating Team, Surveyors, Production, and Operations departments, managing opportunities from initial enquiry through to order while providing technical solutions and exceptional customer service.
The majority of your time will be spent developing opportunities from our extensive CRM database, analysing tender enquiries, following up quotations and project variations, and maintaining regular contact with prospective and existing customers. You will also carry out approximately three client or site visits each week to strengthen relationships, present solutions, and develop new business opportunities.
Reasons to use Rodeo
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.
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.
