Area Sales Manager

£35k - £38k per annum

An established territory with plenty of room to grow.


Strong existing relationships, excellent support and a genuinely consultative sales approach.


No hard sell. Just great products, great customers and plenty of opportunity.

What's in it for you?

You'll have autonomy over your diary, great support and the opportunity to make a real difference.

There's a competitive salary, a generous commission scheme that is treated like an extension to salary as it's is so reliable and an additional bonus scheme too, plus healthcare benefits, pension and a fully electric company car!

What can I expect?

You'll inherit a well-established territory with strong customer relationships and lots of potential still to unlock.

It's a consultative Area Sales Manager role. You'll need to be confident and commercially minded, but never pushy.

You'll also have plenty of support from the office, marketing, customer service and logistics teams.

What do I need?

A background as an Area Sales Manager seling into garden centres is key for success in this role.

What matters is how you sell and how you build relationships.

You'll need:

  • Strong B2B sales or account management experience
  • A natural ability to build trust with customers
  • Good commercial awareness and a desire to grow
  • Confidence identifying and developing new opportunities
  • Excellent organisation and territory management skills
  • A consultative, customer-focused approach

About the Company

A family-owned business with a great reputation and a strong customer base. They've grown significantly over the years but they've held on tight to that genuine family feel.

The sales team work closely together, and the wider support around them is excellent. From marketing and customer service through to logistics and fulfilment, you'll have people around you who want you to succeed.

People tend to stay here. Which is why they usually only have to recruit when someone retires - which is why they need someone new now.

If you're looking for a sales role where relationships matter as much as results, let's talk.
