Area Sales Executive - North Region

Woodpecker Trade

Area Sales Executive – North

£35,000–£40,000 Basic Salary + 20% Bonus + Company Car or Car Allowance + Benefits

Not everyone can sell Woodpecker.

We are not asking you to sell a commodity. We are asking you to represent a premium brand that customers trust and actively choose.

We are looking for an Area Sales Executive to take ownership of a key territory covering Northumberland & Borders, Yorkshire, North East England, North West England, Greater Manchester, and Lincolnshire. Ideally, you will be based around Leeds or along the M62 corridor.

This role is for someone who enjoys building relationships, spotting opportunities and making things happen.

The Opportunity

You will inherit a strong customer base, but this is more than an Account Manager. We are looking for someone who wants to grow a territory.

You will:

Develop existing customer relationships.
Win new business.
Launch new products.
Deliver training and support.
Help customers grow their businesses.
Represent Woodpecker across your region.

You will have the support of a growing, family-owned business, but the territory will be yours to develop.

Who We Are Looking For

Attitude is more important than qualifications here. You will be:

Commercially sharp.
Curious and proactive.
Competitive and driven.
Organised and reliable.
Confident with business owners and decision makers.
Someone who follows through and gets things done.

You might already be working in sales, merchanting, retail, distribution or construction products or you might simply be outperforming where you are and ready for a bigger opportunity.

What You Will Get

£35,000–£40,000 basic salary.
Up to 20% annual bonus.
Company vehicle.
Pension and benefits package.
Genuine autonomy.
A respected premium brand.
A business that values initiative and results.

We are looking for someone to grow this territory. If you are ambitious, commercially minded and ready to make an impact, we would love to hear from you. Apply on LinkedIn, Direct message, or email with your interest to ***email_hidden***
