Description
The Client Our client is a growing distribution business expanding fast in the KBB sector — kitchens, bedrooms and bathrooms. It’s one of the most attractive corners of the trade supply world: tangible products, a market that never stops, and trade customers who buy week in, week out. The business itself is down to earth and hands-on — no corporate gloss, a small team that backs each other — and because it’s growing, it needs experienced counter people it can pay properly and develop quickly. The Role You’ll be the face of the Hillington branch. Professional trade customers — bathroom installers, fitters, building trades — come through the door all day, and your job is to serve them well enough that they keep coming back: pricing orders, answering questions, solving problems on the spot, and learning the KBB range until regulars ask for you by name. It’s the counter craft you already have, applied to a better sector — busy, sociable, practical work where the relationships are the whole game. The Candidate You’re working a trade counter now — and where is wide open: Screwfix, B&Q, MKM, a builders’ or plumbers’ merchant, any trade desk. You know how to keep a queue moving, look after a regular, and stay sharp when it’s flat out. You’re reliable, grounded, good with people — and you’ve probably clocked that where you are, the money’s capped and the ladder’s short. This is the counter job for the person who wants more from the same skills. The Reward £28,000–£30,000 depending on experience — a genuine step up on most counter wages — with full KBB product training from day one. And the part that matters most: a proven path upward. In this business, the people on the counter today become the field salespeople and branch leaders as it grows. Same craft, better sector, real ladder.
