We are TF Solutions , the one stop shop for all air conditioning, refrigeration and heat pump products and with substantial growth over the past decade, we’re becoming one of the leading Air Conditioning & Refrigerators distributors in the UK, so we’d say we know a thing or two about our sector. We’re also now part of the Travis Perkins Group, recognised as one of the UK’s top employers.

What you'll be doing:

Not one day is the same in TF Solutions branch life, but here are a few pointers:

This will vary between talking to our customers in our trade counter or speaking to them over the phone. You'll be working with our team to get our products to the customer safely and efficiently. 

You will be based inside processing our customer orders, answering the phone, keeping stock and facing up shelves. You will also be dealing with supplier deliveries and accurately booking them in branch.
