At CCF we supply the insulation, ceilings and drylining that go into the buildings people live and work in. This role puts you in front of our highest spending customers, with a ledger of your own and the freedom to decide how you grow it.
This isn't order taking. You'll be the person your customers ring first when a project lands, because you understand their business well enough to solve the problem before they've finished describing it.
What you'll be doing
Owning a ledger of key accounts across your territory, building genuine relationships with the decision makers who matter
Making CCF the first call across every product category, not just the categories you're already winning
Hitting sales and profit targets on existing accounts and bringing new business through the door
Negotiating full terms packages and making the commercial calls on customer and project activity
Building many to many relationships so accounts sit with CCF, not just with you
Tracking projects, customers and market movements so nothing lands as a surprise
Reading the market properly: who's competing and what's shifting
Supporting and mentoring sales colleagues around you
What we're looking for
A track record in sales management, ideally somewhere in construction, merchanting or distribution
Someone data led. You look at the numbers, spot the gap, and adjust
A strong negotiator and an even better listener
Comfortable at pace and under pressure, and confident in a difficult conversation
Commercially sharp, with a clear view of the customer and the competition
Full UK driving licence
Sector experience is a bonus, not a barrier. If you can sell, manage a ledger and build trust with people, we can teach you the products.
What you'll get
Competitive basic salary
Strong bonus earning potential
Car allowance
All the perks and benefits of working for an industry leading employer
