Sales & Account Executive - Trade & DIY Channels

We're looking for a driven, hands-on field sales professional who enjoys building relationships, developing accounts, and growing business across a defined regional territory.

This role sits within a leading international business and is best suited to someone with solid B2B or field sales experience who is looking to take the next step in their commercial career. You'll be trusted with real responsibility, ownership of your territory, and the opportunity to develop within a high-performing sales environment.

Success in this role comes from energy, consistency, curiosity, and strong customer engagement in the field, supported by effective collaboration across internal teams.

What You'll Be Doing

Develop and grow trade and DIY accounts across Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland
Proactively win new business through regular field-based customer engagement
Build strong, long-term relationships with distributors, merchants, and end users
Manage your territory with autonomy, commercial focus, and accountability
Work closely with internal teams including supply chain, customer service, and marketing to deliver a seamless customer experience
Support pricing discussions, product positioning, and local commercial initiatives
Identify opportunities to grow existing accounts and expand market presence 

What We're Looking For

Experience in field sales, account management, or B2B territory-based roles
A proven ability to build relationships and grow accounts over time
Strong commercial awareness (pricing, margin, opportunity identification)
Confident communicator who enjoys face-to-face customer interaction
Self-motivated, resilient, and comfortable working independently in the field
Full driving licence (essential)
Willingness to travel extensively across Northern Ireland & Republic of Ireland (essential) 

We are open to candidates from backgrounds such as:

Trade / wholesale / industrial supply
FMCG field sales
Construction materials / building products
DIY retail / merchanting
Automotive or other territory-based B2B sales roles 

What This Role Offers

Competitive base salary + performance-based commission
Company car, fuel card, and full travel support
9% pension, private medical & dental cover, life assurance, income protection
Structured onboarding and ongoing development within a global organisation
Opportunity to build a long-term career in a commercially focused field sales role 

Why This Role?

This is a field-based, customer-facing sales role for someone who enjoys being out with customers, building relationships, and growing accounts through consistent activity.

If you're someone who still enjoys winning business in the field and developing your territory day to day, this is a strong opportunity to step into a high-impact role with real ownership and development potential
