Sales Representative: Capital Equipment

(Ideally based along M62 corridor or NE England)

Our client is a firmly established and privately owned manufacturer and supplier of waste and truck chassis equipment. To support their continued growth in the Central / North England and Scottish territories, they are seeking a home-based Sales Representative to continue the successful management of existing customers and develop new relationships.

This role requires a self-motivated individual who is confident working independently and thrives in a field-based environment.

Key Responsibilities

  • Sell capital equipment solutions to customers within the waste industry, recycling sector, and established truck dealer networks.
  • Conduct high volumes of cold calls and site visits in all weather conditions to generate new leads and secure sales.
  • Build and maintain strong relationships with customers, dealers, and industry partners.
  • Manage the full sales cycle, from prospecting and demonstrations to negotiation and closing.
  • Maintain a disciplined approach to territory management, reporting, and follow-up activities.
  • Work independently to meet and exceed sales targets while representing the company with professionalism and integrity.

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.
