Job Description
Are you currently working in a builders' merchant, plumbing merchant, electrical wholesaler, civils supplier or trade counter environment?
Do you enjoy helping trade customers find the right solution, building long-term relationships, and being part of a small team where your contribution genuinely makes a difference?
We're looking for an experienced Trade Counter Sales Person to join our successful Fareham branch.
This is not a role where you'll be hidden behind a desk. You'll be at the heart of the branch, serving customers face-to-face, handling enquiries, driving sales growth and helping to keep the branch running smoothly. If you take pride in giving great advice and exceptional service, we'd like to hear from you.

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
