Across the UK, our branches support local communities with everything they need for building, improving, and creating – we couldn’t do it without our people and that’s where you come in!
We’re looking for a Senior Sales Person with detailed knowledge of building materials, to join the team at our Northwich branch.

- Building connections – chatting with customers in person or over the phone, using your experience in the industry to give helpful, confident advice.
- Creating tailored solutions – putting together quotes, following up on enquiries, and turning leads into real opportunities, using your understanding of what materials work best for different jobs.
- Keeping things running smoothly – handling day to day admin without any fuss and keeping everything on track.
- Offering guidance – helping customers choose the right products for their projects by drawing on your up to date knowledge.
- Enhancing the shopping experience – keeping displays tidy, well stocked, and easy for customers to browse so they can quickly find the materials they need.
- Collaborating – working closely with the team across the branch, including the yard and counter, using your product knowledge to help customers get the right materials first time.
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.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
We’re happy to explore flexible working options. Feel free to chat with us about it during the interview. While we might not be able to meet every request, we’ll always listen with an open mind - and there’s no judgment in asking.
What You’ll Bring
You’ll have experience in a builders’ merchant or a sales‑focused role, or you’ll be a confident sales professional with strong knowledge of building materials and a passion for helping customers find the right products. Experience leading or supporting a team would be a real advantage.
The right person will also bring strong time keeping, natural organisation and clear communication skills. You’ll be a great listener, show genuine enthusiasm and maintain sharp attention to detail. Driven, passionate and customer focused, you’ll adapt your approach to suit each individual and deliver a positive, personalised experience every time.
