Perhaps you've built your experience within retail, visual merchandising, customer service, hospitality or sales and you're looking for an opportunity to take those skills into a field-based commercial role.

Someone who's comfortable approaching new people, can build relationships naturally and isn't discouraged when the first answer is "no". • A full, valid UK manual driving licence is essential., • You'll be comfortable driving a company-provided, Transit-sized manual vehicle as part of your role., • You'll be happy working a fully field-based position, spending the majority of your week visiting customers., • You'll need to be comfortable covering Luton, Bedford, Milton Keynes and surrounding areas., • You'll be organised, self-motivated and capable of managing your own diary and territory., • Previous sales, retail, merchandising, customer service, hospitality, FMCG or other customer-facing experience would be highly relevant.
