This vacancy has now expired. Please see similar roles below...



Looking for a change in career? Do you have a passion for sales, a hunger to succeed and a love for being out on the road, visiting new and existing customers? You don’t even need to come from our industry or even know our products. Interested? Yes? Then read on!  

We have an exciting opportunity for an Area Sales Representative to join our South East region, covering the areas of Worthing TC, Worthing CC, Bognor & Littlehampton. Joining our friendly and hard working family as an ASR will give you a fantastic opportunity to showcase your ability to sell and build relationships with customers as well as identifying and introducing new customers to Travis Perkins. 

You will be fundamental to the sales growth and performance of the branches you are working with and therefore the overall performance of the biggest builders’ merchants in the UK. Being part of the sales team you will play a vital role in our continued success of providing a first class service to the best builders in town and growing our share of the market. 

Hours - Monday to Friday 8am - 5pm

What’s in it for you?
Competitive salary, plus a company car, with an achievable and generous bonus package
22 days holiday plus bank holidays
Full support and training
Group-wide colleague discounts across the Travis Perkins Group including Tile Giant and Toolstation.  
Contributory pension, private healthcare, life assurance, sharesave scheme
Great onboarding and recognised qualification opportunities including Apprenticeship programs, if you choose.

What you’ll be doing
No two days are the same within Travis Perkins, but here are some of the key account abilities you will be involved in:
Maintaining and developing a pre-determined ledger of customer accounts within the South East area
Building strong relationships with our current customers and seeking out new customers to add to your portfolio.
Identify sales opportunities, introducing new products and creating solutions for your customer ledger to deliver long term profitable sales growth 
Collaborating with the branches in your area to maximise opportunity and sales growth

What experience do you need?
Just bring your passion for sales, customer service, initiative, energy and enthusiasm - we’ll give you the knowledge you need of our industry and products through a brilliant induction with your regional team and the opportunity (if you wish) to gain a foundation degree-level External Sales qualification whilst you work. 
Previous experience within merchanting would be great, but if you’re new to our industry we’ll ensure you get what you need to excel in the role. 
Customers are at the heart of this role so ideally you’ll be used to building strong relationships with multiple customers and internal stakeholders, perhaps in a previous field-based role. 
You’ll be visiting customers, project sites and branches every day - there’s nothing more important than your safety whilst being out on the road so there’s one thing that you definitely need and that’s a full UK driving licence with over a year’s driving experience.
