Sales Manager | UK Robinia | Andover, Hampshire

Love to sell a product you can actually touch? Come and own sales at a growing timber business.

UK Robinia supplies durable Robinia timber for playgrounds, landscaping and outdoor structures. We’re growing, and we’re looking for a hands-on, commercially sharp Sales Manager to take full ownership of our customer accounts and drive that growth.

This isn’t account management or a trade counter. It’s a proper sales role, so you’ll spend most of your day doing what you do best: selling, quoting and developing customers.

What you’ll do

• Own the full sales cycle, from enquiry and quote through to confirmed order
• Grow our existing accounts and win new ones through structured outbound calling and email
• Protect two focused calling blocks every day, around two hours each morning and afternoon
• Quote with confidence, working to a standard 40% gross margin
• Help build higher-margin offers, such as swing kits and complete play equipment kits
• Meet key customers face to face, with UK travel typically a couple of days a month
• Keep the pipeline and CRM up to date, and work with marketing on a monthly content plan

Who we sell to

Playground manufacturers and installers, landscape contractors, local authorities, zoos and theme parks, leisure operators, vineyards, and fencing manufacturers and suppliers.

What we’re looking for

• Proven B2B sales experience with a physical product, ideally in timber, fencing, building materials, landscaping or construction
• Confident and credible on the phone and by email, with the discipline to prospect every day
• Commercially numerate: comfortable with costs, markup, margin and transport charges
• Advanced Excel and Microsoft Office skills
• Self-starting, organised and resilient, with a strong follow-up habit
• A track record of meeting and exceeding targets
• Full UK driving licence and a commutable distance to Andover, Hampshire

What’s in it for you

• Competitive base salary plus generous commission
• 22 days’ holiday plus bank holidays, rising to 25 with our loyalty scheme
• Private healthcare after probation
• Auto-enrolment pension from day one
• Real progression, with potential to grow into a broader business leadership role as we expand

Working pattern: Monday to Friday, 8:00am to 5:00pm, office-based
