At CCF we supply the insulation, ceilings and drylining that go into the buildings people live and work in. This role puts you in front of our highest spending customers, with a ledger of your own and the freedom to decide how you grow it.


This isn't order taking. You'll be the person your customers ring first when a project lands, because you understand their business well enough to solve the problem before they've finished describing it.


What you'll be doing

  • Owning a ledger of key accounts across your territory, building genuine relationships with the decision makers who matter
  • Making CCF the first call across every product category, not just the categories you're already winning
  • Hitting sales and profit targets on existing accounts and bringing new business through the door
  • Negotiating full terms packages and making the commercial calls on customer and project activity
  • Building many to many relationships so accounts sit with CCF, not just with you
  • Tracking projects, customers and market movements so nothing lands as a surprise
  • Reading the market properly: who's competing and what's shifting
  • Supporting and mentoring sales colleagues around you


What we're looking for

  • A track record in sales management, ideally somewhere in construction, merchanting or distribution
  • Someone data led. You look at the numbers, spot the gap, and adjust
  • A strong negotiator and an even better listener
  • Comfortable at pace and under pressure, and confident in a difficult conversation
  • Commercially sharp, with a clear view of the customer and the competition
  • Full UK driving licence


Sector experience is a bonus, not a barrier. If you can sell, manage a ledger and build trust with people, we can teach you the products.


What you'll get

  • Competitive basic salary
  • Strong bonus earning potential
  • Car allowance
  • All the perks and benefits of working for an industry leading employer
  • The backing of Travis Perkins Group, one of the UK's largest builders' merchants, behind a brand with room to grow


CCF is part of Travis Perkins Group. We're building a team that reflects the customers and communities we serve, and we welcome applications from everyone. If you need any adjustments during the recruitment process, tell us and we'll sort it.
