About You

We’re looking for someone who will be the face of our business out in the field, so excellent verbal and written communication skills will come very naturally to you.  You’ll be comfortable dealing with people at all levels, able to develop mutually respectful relationships with both customers and others in our business and will enjoy working as part of and celebrating wins with both your immediate sales team and the teams in the wider business.
