What’s it like to be a Sales Assistant?

Every day is different at Travis Perkins, but here’s what you can expect:

  • Strong customer relationships are key to our success, both in person and by phone. You’ll deliver the highest service standards, understanding and meeting your customers’ current and future needs before sending them on their way with a smile.
  • We keep safety at the heart of everything we do. Maintaining high standards across our working environment keeps everybody safe and happy all day, every day.

  • Are you a team player who is comfortable to step outside of your role to support colleagues across the wider branch?

What’s in it for you?

  • Make your job a journey – with support to enrol onto development schemes, giving you the tools and knowledge you need to excel and progress.
  • Competitive salary – with bonus earning potential too! We achieve together, so we earn together too.
  • Enhanced pension scheme – prepare for your future by matching your pension contributions up to 10%. (Conditions apply)
  • Group-wide discounts – 20% off at Toolstation, with wider savings across the group.
  • Sociable hours – Protect your “me time” with sociable daytime hours (no evenings!).

We’re driven to remain a truly inclusive employer. Please let your recruiter know how we can help you to thrive as your authentic self. You be you, it makes us, us.
