Regional Role covering Sunderland and South Sheilds


Joining our business as an Area Sales Representative, you will be responsible for maintaining relationships and developing business from an existing customer base, alongside procuring business from new customers. You’ll be out on the road meeting people face-to-face and developing business through long-lasting relationships, alongside spending time talking to potential customers over the phone promoting the business and generating new leads. Although you will spend a lot of time working independently, you’ll be part of a much larger team, all working together to provide our customers the best possible service and homeowners the kitchen of their dreams.


You’ll report directly to the Sales Development Manager and work in conjunction with them to develop a strategy relative to both your customer base and geographical area. You don’t need to have industry knowledge or experience for this role; we are looking for someone with sales experience and the passion to take ownership of both your own and your area’s success.


In return we offer a competitive salary, benefits package with bonus scheme and discounts, a company car and the opportunity for career progression.


If you don’t know much about us, Benchmarx was established in 2006 and already has over 180 branches in the UK. We are a rapidly growing, fresh-thinking business that’s a major supplier to the UK’s building and construction market. Part of the Travis Perkins Group, we have been recognised as one of Britain’s Top Employers since 2010, putting our employees and our loyal customer base at the heart of everything we do.
