Are you passionate about coaching, sales, and building strong business relationships? Do you thrive on delivering high-impact training that drives results? If you're looking for a role where you can inspire, educate, and make a real difference, this is the opportunity for you.

About Us

We are recruiting for an Area Training Manager to join our client who are a market-leading kitchen appliance provider, known for innovation, quality, and exceptional customer service. Their products are trusted by major retailers and trade partners across the UK, and we are committed to ensuring they have the knowledge and confidence to sell them effectively.

As an Area Training Manager, you will play a key role in strengthening these partnerships, delivering engaging and informative training sessions, and ensuring their products are positioned for success in the market.

What You'll Be Doing

This is a field-based role where you will spend 4.5 days per week in your assigned region, working closely with major retail and trade merchants to deliver top-tier training and sales support. You will be an essential bridge between our company and our customers, ensuring they have the tools and knowledge they need to excel.

Key Responsibilities of Area Training Manager:

  • Deliver engaging, results-driven product training to retail staff, trade partners, and business teams to increase knowledge and confidence in selling our products
  • Develop and maintain strong relationships with key retail and trade partners, becoming their go-to expert for product and sales support
  • Support sales growth objectives by ensuring training aligns with company goals and market trends
  • Work collaboratively with Business Development Managers and internal teams to optimize training effectiveness and customer engagement
  • Stay ahead of industry trends and innovations, ensuring all training materials and sessions are up to date and impactful
  • Represent the company professionally, always demonstrating expertise, enthusiasm, and a deep understanding of our products

What We're Looking For

We need someone who is more than just a trainer—you should be a motivator, communicator, and sales strategist. This role requires a proactive, self-driven individual who thrives in a fast-paced, field-based environment and is comfortable working independently while remaining a strong team player.

Essential Skills & Experience:

  • A strong background in sales, training, or coaching (preferably in a retail, trade, or product-focused environment)
  • Excellent communication and presentation skills—able to engage, inspire, and educate audiences of all sizes
  • A passion for building relationships and influencing stakeholders at all levels
  • Strong commercial awareness and understanding of sales processes, product positioning, and retail dynamics
  • Confidence in using modern software tools and digital platforms to deliver training
  • Highly organised, self-motivated, and able to manage a field-based role effectively
  • A full UK driving license and willingness to travel within the West UK territory

What's in It for You?

We recognise that great people deserve great rewards. Here's what you can expect when you join our team:

  • Competitive salary of up to £32,000
  • Performance-based bonus of up to 25% annually
  • Company car provided after completion of probation
  • Laptop, mobile phone, and full tech package to support your role
  • 23 days of annual leave plus bank holidays (rising to 25 in year 2 and 27 in year 5)
  • Company contributory pension scheme for long-term financial security
  • Life insurance and Westfield Health membership for health and wellbeing support
  • Free onsite gym to help you stay active and healthy
  • Exclusive staff discounts on our appliances
  • Reward program through Reward Gateway, offering a range of benefits and discounts
  • Buy and sell holiday scheme, giving you greater flexibility with time off
  • Ongoing career development, including training, mentorship, and opportunities for internal promotion
  • Annual company events, including Christmas parties, summer barbecues, and team-building activities

Why This Role?

This is an opportunity to be at the forefront of sales training and development in a company that values innovation, teamwork, and customer excellence. You will have the autonomy to make a real impact, the support of a collaborative team, and the chance to develop your career in a growing, forward-thinking business.

If you love training, sales, and relationship management, and you're ready to take on a dynamic, field-based role with room for growth, we want to hear from you.
