What We're Looking For

• Strong sales, negotiation and customer relationship skills, ideally with experience in field or route sales.
• Previous merchandising experience, including creating attractive product displays and maintaining promotional materials.
• A full, valid driving licence and confidence operating a van for daily deliveries and customer visits.
• Excellent organisational and time-management skills, with the ability to plan routes and manage stock effectively.
• Strong communication skills and the ability to build relationships with a variety of retail customers.
• Good numeracy and basic IT skills for processing orders, maintaining stock records and completing reports.
• A self-motivated, reliable and proactive approach to work.
• Confidence working independently and managing your own territory.
• Previous experience within FMCG, convenience retail or forecourt environments would be advantageous.
