Do you want to join an established business that will invest in your development, give you genuine responsibility from day one and provide a clear pathway into professional B2B sales and long-term career progression?
This is an outstanding opportunity to join a highly respected specialist technical distributor, supplying industry-leading HVAC, building controls and industrial electrical solutions to businesses across the South of England. The company has an excellent reputation for developing talented people, with many of its managers having started their careers in trainee positions.
About the Business
Our client is a long-established technical distributor supplying market-leading HVAC, building controls, industrial electrical and automation products to customers across the commercial, industrial and public sectors.
Working closely with manufacturers recognised throughout the industry, the business supports a diverse customer base including M&E contractors, facilities management companies, building controls specialists, OEMs, panel builders and industrial businesses. They are known for combining technical expertise with exceptional customer service and have built an enviable reputation over many years.
The Role
This is a structured graduate opportunity designed to develop you into a successful B2B sales professional. You’ll spend time learning every aspect of the business, developing a strong understanding of the products, customers and commercial operations before progressing into a customer-facing sales role with increasing responsibility.
Your training will include:
  * Learning the company’s products, suppliers and technical solutions
  * Developing a broad understanding of the business across sales, operations, logistics and customer support
  * Building relationships with existing B2B customers
  * Supporting customers with enquiries, quotations and orders
  * Developing account management and business development skills
  * Working alongside experienced sales professionals and technical specialists
  * Progressing into a role focused on generating new business and growing customer accounts
As your knowledge and confidence grow, you’ll begin managing your own customer accounts, identifying new business opportunities and building a successful long-term career in professional B2B sales.
About You
We’re looking for an ambitious graduate with a positive attitude, commercial curiosity and a genuine desire to build a successful career in B2B sales.
You’ll ideally have:
  * A degree (any discipline considered)
  * Excellent communication and relationship-building skills
  * Commercial awareness and a proactive attitude
  * Confidence speaking with customers
  * Strong organisation and willingness to learn
  * A full UK driving licence
Previous sales or industry experience isn’t required. Your attitude, motivation and potential are far more important than your background.
What’s on Offer?
  * Up to £30,000 basic salary
  * Annual Profit Share Bonus
  * Comprehensive training and ongoing mentoring
  * Structured career development with genuine progression opportunities
  * Exposure to a wide range of industries, customers and technical solutions
  * Supportive, friendly and collaborative working environment
  * Clear pathway into a successful B2B sales career with increasing responsibility and long-term earning potential.
