SUSSEX PLUMBING SUPPLIES · PART OF IBMG
Bathroom Showroom Designer / Sales Advisor

Location: Heathfield — Sussex

Who we are
Our SPS bathroom showrooms are where ideas become reality — for homeowners doing their dream bathroom and for the installers fitting them. We pair quality ranges with people who genuinely know their stuff. No pushy sales scripts. Just good design, honest advice and a finish the customer's proud of.
The role
We're after a Showroom Designer / Sales Advisor who can turn a customer's vision into a beautiful, buildable bathroom — and close the sale doing it. You'll design, you'll advise, and you'll own the customer journey from first hello to final delivery. Equal parts creativity and commercial nous.
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.
What you'll actually be doing
- Design bathrooms that sell — consult, plan and create tailored designs (CAD experience welcome — we'll train you on our system if not).
- Look after both audiences — retail customers spending their own money and the trade installers who fit the work.
- Drive showroom sales — quote, follow up the leads, and hit your targets with service, not pressure.
- Keep the showroom immaculate — displays fresh, ranges current, the floor looking like somewhere you'd want to buy a bathroom.
- Know your product — stay on top of new ranges, trends and what's actually good, so your advice is worth taking.
- Own the order — process it cleanly, manage delivery expectations, and keep the customer in the loop.
