Area Sales Consultant
The Role:
Covering the area of North West London and the Northern Home Counties, the Area Sales Consultant will be selling a vast range of products which form solutions to problems encountered by installers & contractors who work on commercial & residential tiling work. The product range includes (but is not limited to): waterproofing membranes, underfloor heating systems, trims & finishes, and tile back boards - basically anything that is required behind a tile or stone wall & floor.
The Area Sales Consultant will be focussing their efforts on a target market of tilers & contractors who use their solutions across the region. The Area Sales Consultant will then back-sell the product through national & independent merchants and retailers across the area. The Area Sales Consultant will inherit a base set of accounts which need nurturing and bringing up to a strong level in order to set off the momentum of taking market share and bringing on board new merchants & retailers. The Area Sales Consultant will be supported by an existing Specification Sales Team in the region who are generating demand for these solutions via Architects & Contractors for commercial & residential projects - therefore meaning the need for more retailers & distribution partners is there for these prestigious projects.
The Area Sales Consultant will target buyers & procurement professionals within Merchant networks as well as retail store owners, showroom managers, and the sales people in those retailers also in order to push your products & solutions into their mind so they too promote them over your competitor products. The key target of this role is to develop the end user market (70%) and get them into the Merchant network. You will be activity driven and conducting multiple meetings per week with both fixers and distributors.
